A matter of jerseys. It is the European champion Lorena Wiebes who conquers the Sanremo Women after exploiting the tremendous work of world champion Lotte Kopecky, who closed within 150 meters of Italian champion Elisa Longo Borghini, who attempted a last-minute coup at the bottom of the Poggio, when the race returned to the Aurelia.

THE RACE. The first action of the day came thanks to the attack by 23-year-old Dutch rider Anne Knijnenburg (VolkerWessels Women's Pro Cycling Team), who pedaled with a dozen seconds of advantage for several kilometers before the group came back together, and then 27-year-old Czech rider Nikola Nosková (Cofidis Women Team) tried a solo action. For her too, there was no space.

Passing through Finale Ligure, after many kilometers in a compact group, Anne Knijnenburg attacked again. Chasing her were first Laura Tomasi (Laboral Kutxa - Fundación Euskadi) and then Virginia Bortoli (Top Girls Fassa Bortolo): the two riders from Vicenza pedaled in tandem for several kilometers but failed to make the connection.

The leader remained alone at the front until the descent of Capo Mele, 50 kilometers from the finish, when the group came back together.
