In the revived Milan-San Remo women's race, Cat Ferguson of Movistar faced a disappointing moment when she crashed on the descent of the Poggio, ultimately finishing 18th. Competing against a reduced peloton, she voiced her frustration over not being able to keep up with the attacks post-crash. The race, marking its return after a 20-year hiatus, posed challenges for all riders, many of whom lacked experience on the course. Ferguson remained optimistic, focusing on improving as she continues her first senior racing season with upcoming events in Belgium.
It's my first time ever and also everyone else's here, which is really incredible to say. I was looking to be here, to be at the finish.
By the time the attacks came, I was out the back. It was definitely way, way harder than I expected. I tried what I could to chase back on the descent.
I hope all the girls that crashed today are OK because I know there was a pretty big one before the Cipressa.
Learning and improving race by race, Ferguson will continue her first senior racing season on Flemish roads.
