Video: The story of Milan-Sanremo

Milan-Sanremo. La Classicissima has been running since 1907. It has been won by sprinters, climbers, descenders, and time triallists. No other Monument can say that. This is the story of how a race from Milan to the Italian Riviera became the most unpredictable Classic on the calendar - and why that Poggio climb decides everything.

We cover the founding myth (a snowstorm so brutal that only four riders finished), the giants who shaped the race (Coppi's 14-minute solo, Merckx's seven wins), how the course was redesigned piece by piece to keep the sprinters honest, and the modern editions that produced some of the most remarkable moments in one-day racing
