Can anyone stop Tadej Pogačar winning Milan-San Remo? Is there anyone able to go with the Slovenian, or Belgian Wout van Aert, when the attacks come on the Poggio? Is anyone able to repeat Jasper Stuyven’s late attack of 2021 and raise their arms on the Via Roma?

In Italy, they are hoping Filippo Ganna has all the answers to the myriad of Milan-San Remo questions. So too are Ineos Grenadiers after struggling to take on rival super teams Jumbo-Visma and UAE Team Emirates in recent weeks.
