Overview
- Jonas Vingegaard clinched Paris–Nice with two stage wins, a second place on the final day behind Lenny Martínez, and the mountain and points jerseys.
- He is set to lead the Volta a Catalunya starting March 23 in Sant Feliu de Guíxols, with a strong field including Remco Evenepoel, João Almeida, Tom Pidcock, Florian Lipowitz, Richard Carapaz, Egan Bernal, Enric Mas, and Mikel Landa.
- Juan Ayuso crashed midweek and withdrew from Paris–Nice, removing the rider seen as Vingegaard’s main in-race challenger.
- Isaac del Toro won Tirreno–Adriático, underscoring his rapid rise and adding depth behind UAE Team Emirates leader Tadej Pogačar.
- Focus now shifts to Saturday’s Milan–San Remo, where Pogačar has repeatedly attacked on the Poggio but is still chasing a first win.
