Men’s and Women’s Elite Races
The 2026 Liège–Bastogne–Liège once again delivered selective racing across the steep climbs of the Ardennes, where timing, endurance, and climbing strength proved decisive in both elite events.
Men’s Race Recap
Aggressive racing throughout the day reduced the field to a select group of contenders heading into the final climbs. Repeated accelerations over the closing kilometers created separation among the favorites, setting up a decisive move late in the race.
A powerful solo attack on the final major climb proved to be the winning move, with Tadej Pogačar (UAE Team Emirates-XRG) riding clear and holding the advantage all the way to the finish. Behind him, a small chase group formed, but the gap remained intact as the race concluded.
