And welcome to the live blog from the men's road race at the Imola World Championships! Now it's Guillaume Martin's turn to attack for France! He didn't give himself much time to enjoy the moment rolling over the line, but he won't care about that. Which all leads us to the question of just exactly what these Danes think they're doing? Riders are getting a feed at the moment and the pace remains benign. Alaphilippe can capitalise on the hesitation behind. They are on their way up the Gallisterna, the tougher of the circuit's two steep climbs, and we are seeing yellow jersey winner Tadej Pogacar apparently working in the service of the man from whom he took the maillot jaune, Primoz Roglic. He immediately gets a few bike lengths and the Belgian team appear to decide to let him go. After La Fleche Wallonne is it time for a change? The chasers are already thinking about making sure they take a medal, leaving the gold to France. Hugh Carthy will be a disappointing loss for Team GB, while erstwhile breakawayer Ulises Ernesto Castillo, Nic Dlamini and Silain Dillier have all also thrown in the towel. Classification. Off the front with a tiny gap is Jan Polanc. Once the serious contenders put their feet down today I think we'll see something similar. Sensational Van der Breggen takes second World Championships gold. Here's that Pogacar bike change from earlier. He hasn't broken the spirits of the Belgian riders just yet, but they don't have infinite resources. The peloton is really strung out now as we near the end of the sixth lap. Tom Pidcock is one 'protected rider' for sure. The men's peloton will rack up 5,000 m of elevation gain today across the 258km route. The last time he did one of those he won the Tour de France, so its not necessarily a bad thing – despite coming late on in the race. What a dream team. France's Julian Alaphilippe celebrates meters before crossing the finish line to win the Men's Elite Road Race, a 258.2-kilometer route around Imola, Emilia-Romagna, Italy, on September 27, 2020 as part of the UCI 2020 Road World Championships. This Pogacar attack is going to spell the end of a lot of riders' races. When the elite women raced yesterday, a gap slightly smaller than that seemed to evaporate under the chasing efforts of Marianne Vos and the rest of the Dutch squad. The Italians, quiet all day, have sent up a barrage of attacks. The five chasers are Kwiatkowski, Fuglsang, Roglic, van Aert and Hirschi. By Eurosport • 25/09/2020 at 20:16. You wouldn't bet against Wout van Aert now. There are four of their eight riders on the front of the peloton now.

Alaphilippe, Hirschi, Fuglsang, Roglic, Pogacar, Valverde, Woods, Kwiatkowski.... pick one, any one. Holy Mackerel. First Damiano Caruso and then Vicenzo Nibali. The Russian rider has just gently ridden off the front of the peloton and nobody in the bunch really batted an eye. Kwiatkowski was fourth. At the moment the two riders from Team Ineos are 1 and 2 at the front of the peloton, with one of their trade team mate Michal Kwiatkowski sitting in P3. They've brought back that small leading group. Our little bunch of leaders are taking this opportunity to get some scran in them before the hammer properly drops. - Thomas reveals he was riding blind, Julian Alaphilippe wins road race gold medal at world championships, Rising star Hirschi continues excellent form with La Fleche Wallonne victory, Van der Breggen wins sixth straight Fleche Wallonne title with dominant Mur de Huy climb, Re-Cycle - When King Kelly’s cool head set up Roche’s Triple Crown, 'Nobody can stop the Swiss!' It's surely only a matter of time before Alaphilippe gives it the Barry McGuigan. Results. Poland, Slovenia and Switzerland are the most prominent jerseys at the front of the bunch. The break has rather broken up now, with just Jonas Koch and Torstein Træen at the head of proceedings. Cycling World Championships, Men's Road Race in Imola - as it happened Tom Owen brought you coverage of all the drama as Julian Alaphilippe made a … Nibali gets clear with the big Belgian, plus Mikel Landa and Rigoberto Uran in tow. The guys who placed first and second in the Tour last weekend could both easily win this race – and to see the pair of them competing together is a delicious prospect. Alaphilippe has proven himself to be such a rider, hitting the kind of form that saw him dominate the headlines in the 2019 Tour de France just in time to scoop himself a rainbow jersey. - Thomas reveals he was riding blind, Julian Alaphilippe wins road race gold medal at world championships, Rising star Hirschi continues excellent form with La Fleche Wallonne victory, Van der Breggen wins sixth straight Fleche Wallonne title with dominant Mur de Huy climb, Re-Cycle - When King Kelly’s cool head set up Roche’s Triple Crown, 'Nobody can stop the Swiss!'

They have spirited up a whole phalanx of domestiques and they are booking it on the front of the peloton. The chasers seem reluctant to work together and the Frenchman is capitalising on that as much as he can. None of them want to bring van Aert to the line, however, and that might be their undoing.
