00:00Let's see the replay of it.
00:03Ah, I think Pogacar was the first one going down there.
00:07Well, that is the most decisive moment, potentially, of Tadej Pogacar's tilt.
00:12At trying to win Milan Sanremo.
00:14That looks like an unrecoverable position for him.
00:18Bini and Germay also delayed, as well as Wout Van Aerts.
00:22And Mateo Jorgensen, I think, was involved.
00:25We see Affini here.
00:26But big bruises on the left side of Tadej Pogacar with discretion.
00:31Let's see if he can.
00:32136, and here goes the world champion.
00:34This is the moment that Pogacar's going to have to try and make the difference.
00:38Pitcock locked onto his wheel.
00:39Van der Poel comfortably able to follow.
00:42A swept round Pipo Gana.
00:44Gana is a little bit on the back foot now as those three riders blast here.
00:49Pogacar, having been down, paced back to the peloton, has unleashed a big, big attack.
00:53He looks round and he sees Pitcock and Van der Poel for company.
00:57It's another trio going clear on the Cipressa.
01:00This time, though, swap out Gana for Pitcock.
01:03The hardest part of this climb is about to finish as they're going to ride.
01:07But Gana really, he was struggling to all the best.
01:11And the gap is big.
01:12Nobody's pushing.
01:13Coming in fast.
01:15And Pogacar sees them there.
01:16And he goes.
01:17And Van der Poel, no immediate reaction, as he coaxes Tom Pitcock onto the wheel in front.
01:22A little gap opens up.
01:24Pitcock is able to hold the wheel of Tadej Pogacar.
01:26And that is not a bluff from Van der Poel.
01:29He's riding his own race now and hoping that he can pace himself back,
01:32like Filippo Gana did on the Cipressa, to the front of the race.
01:36But the signs are not good there for Van der Poel.
01:39No, it seems like the pace is too high.
01:41So the pace we were seeing from Van der Poel was not a bluff.
01:44He's really struggling to all the pace.
01:46He hasn't cracked yet, but he's been distanced at the moment.
01:50Only Pitcock look like the only man able to follow Tadej Pogacar at the moment.
01:55Can the world champion deliver the performance that gets him this yearnful victory?
02:00Pogacar opens up his sprint.
02:02Pitcock still in the shadow of Pogacar.
02:04Pogacar trying to win the impossible race.
02:08But Pitcock is coming up alongside him.
02:10The arms go in the air.
02:12And it's very, very close.
02:14But Pogacar celebrates.
02:16The impossible race has been won by the impossible rider.
02:22Tadej Pogacar has done it.
02:25And he's done it in the most extraordinary fashion.
02:28The script that no one could have imagined.
02:31Down, out, bruised, battered.
02:34And somehow back, out sprinting Tom Pitcock.
02:38The impossible moment has arrived.
