Lotte Kopecky calculating explosive Poggio attack, hair-raising descent in hunt for another Monument victory at revived Milan-San Remo
Briefly

Lotte Kopecky is intentionally delaying the start of her competitive season to focus on key races such as Milan-San Remo and major Spring Classics, aiming for a general classification (GC) role in the Tour de France later. As a two-time World Champion, she is a favorite for the Milan-San Remo, expressing admiration for its course design and climbs. The women's race returns after 20 years, marking a significant moment for female cyclists, alongside three other Monuments in women's cycling.
"It's a race that I like the most on the men's [calendar] especially the final," Kopecky said, expressing her fondness for the Milan-San Remo course.
"Organised by RCS Sport, the comeback of the women's version of Milan-San Remo now becomes the first of four Monuments offered to the women's peloton," highlighting the significance of the race.
"I'm happy that the race is on the calendar," Kopecky remarked, emphasizing her enthusiasm for the return of the women's Milan-San Remo.
"Kopecky's strengths in one-day races and on climbs mean that she will be eyeing the challenging Poggio as a potent opportunity to win."
