Tadej Pogačar still looked a little tired 24 hours after winning Strade Bianche with his immense 50km solo ride across the gravel roads and steep climbs yet made it clear he is out to win Tirreno-Adriatico and continue his incredible run of 2022 success.

Rivals of the calibre of Remco Evenepoel (QuickStep-AlphaVinyl), Jonas Vingegaard (Jumbo-Visma), Thibaut Pinot (Groupama-FDJ), Enric Mas (Movistar), Rigoberto Uran (EF Education-EasyPost), Tao Geoghegan Hart and Richard Carapaz (Ineos Grenadiers) perhaps start Tirreno-Adriatico fresher and more rested but Pogačar is on a roll.
