Famous climbs such as the Côte de Wanne, Côte de La Redoute, and Côte de la Roche aux Faucons pack the route on what is the longest, oldest, and most challenging race of the Ardennes Triple.
While Demi Vollering (SD Worx-Protime) is back to defend her women's race title, Remco Evenepoel misses out on a chance to back-to-back-to-back following a crash at Itzulia Basque Country. Instead, Tadej Pogačar (UAE Team Emirates) comes in as the main favourite having won the race three years ago.
The two megastars won't have it all their own way at La Doyenne, however. Not least because the likes of the reigning world champions Mathieu van der Poel (Alpecin-Deceuninck) and Lotte Kopecky (SD Worx-Protime) will also be chasing glory on the roads of Wallonia.
Otherwise, look out for other big names such as Tom Pidcock (Ineos Grenadiers), Ashleigh Moolman Pasio (AG Insurance-Soudal), Michael Matthews (Jayco-AlUla), Cecilie Uttrup Ludwig (FDJ-Suez), Matej Mohorič (Bahrain Victorious), Elisa Longo Borghini (Lidl-Trek), Benoît Cosnefroy (Decathlon AG2R La Mondiale), David Gaudu (Groupama-FDJ) and more besides.
