Liège-Bastogne-Liège 2022 Overview
Remco Evenepoel wins Liège-Bastogne-Liège
Liège-Bastogne-Liège - How it happened
Remco Evenepoel (QuickStep-AlphaVinyl) went clear in an attack atop the Côte de la Redoute with 29km remaining and won the 2022 Liège-Bastogne-Liège.
Quinten Hermans (Intermarché-Wanty-Gobert Matériaux) took second place from the group sprint ahead of Wout van Aert (Jumbo-Visma), the reduced group of 12 riders crossing the line 48 seconds behind Evenepoel.
It was the first Monument win of the 22-year-old's career in his belated first appearance at La Doyenne.
Liège-Bastogne-Liège, which held its 108th edition on April 24, is the oldest Classic on the calendar and the biggest race of the Ardennes Classics, 257.1km this year. The race was marred by a massive crash with a little over 60km remaining as the peloton was descending to the base of the Col du Rosier. Evenepoel's teammate Julian Alaphilippe among the heaviest fallers and he was forced to abandon, along with contenders Romain Bardet (DSM) and Rigoberto Uran (EF Education-EasyPost).
