Milano - San Remo Bicycle Race
Winners, podium, distance, average speed

All Italian racers dream of winning the most prestigious Italian 1-day race, Milano-San Remo. It is the longest 1-day race on the pro calendar. Sometimes called La Primavera (Italian for spring) or La Classicisima (the most classic), it is held in mid-March.

Like the Giro di Lombardia, which was launched 2 years before, Milano-San Remo was originated and organized by La Gazzetta dello Sport. An arm of the firm that owns La Gazzetta, RCS Sport, still puts on La Classicisima.

Eddy Merckx, at 7 victories, is the winningest Milano-San Remo rider.

The 1967 edition of Milano-San Remo remains the fastest ever, won by Merckx at the record speed of 44.805 km/hr.
