Bruised and bloodied Pogacar wins Strade Bianche

Pogacar of UAE Team Emirates-XRG topped the podium by Imin 24sec ahead of Briton Tom Pidcock, with Belgium's Tim Wellens a further 48sec adrift.

After victory in the Tuscan one-day race in 2022 and 2024, 26-year-old Pogacar now equals Swiss rider Fabian Cancellara's record of three victories in the Strade Bianche.

"Pretty good race today. The race was super fast. It was a really strong breakaway and our guys did super amazing work in the front," said Pogacar who completed the 213km race in 5hr 13mins and 58secs.

"We just went fast and it was a really hard race."

After falling off his bike at a corner on adescent, Pogacar displayed several cuts to his body with blood notably visible on his left shoulder.

"I enjoyed it until I crossed the finish line. Now I'm in adrenaline wear-off and I start to feel a lot of pain," said the reigning world champion and Tour de France winner.

Casting director urged Shirley Henderson to ignore age

What was the question again? Sorry, I'm dreadful...\" It's the third time — or is it the fourth? — that Shirley Henderson has said this during our interview. Not that she has anything to apologise for; I honestly can't remember what the question was either by this point. Nor do I much care.
