This new victory allows the Slovenian to now have nine career successes during these prestigious events. It is also the third victory of Pogacar during Li\u00e8ge-Bastogne-Li\u00e8ge. The Slovenian completed the 252 -kilometer course without immense emotion, with 1 min 3 s ahead of the Italian Giulio Ciccone (2<sup>e<\/sup>) and the Irishman Ben Healy (3<sup>e<\/sup>). <em>&#8220;It&#8217;s great to end the first part of the season in this way<\/em>said Pogacar at the microphone of the organizers. <em>I am very happy, everything went very well. \u00bb\u00bb<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph  \">With his rainbow jersey of world champion on his shoulders, the leader of the UAE Emirates team has established himself with disconcerting ease and by applying a proof strategy. Pogacar first asked his teammates to maintain the peloton at a respectable distance from the morning escape, made up of twelve men, including the French Mathis Le Berre (Ark\u00e9a-B &#038; B Hotels), Rayan Boulahoite and Valentin Retailleau (Total Energies). Once these fugitives have been caught up in, the Slovenian&#8217;s henchmen still hardened the race to allow their boss to be beautiful in the redoubt (1.6 kilometer at 9.5 %), as soon as his opponents were sufficiently blinked.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"article__sub-title\">Ben Healy and Giulio Ciccone the most valiant<\/h2>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph  \"><em>&#8220;I did not necessarily plan to attack at this place of the race, but when I saw that the leaders of the other training courses had no more team members around them, I wanted to test my legs&#8221;<\/em>detailed the triple winner of the Tour de France (2020, 2021, 2024).<\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph  \">Presented as one of the only runners to be able to thwart Pogacar&#8217;s plans, the Belgian Remco Evenepoel (Sudal-Quick-Step) did not even have an illusion. From the first acceleration of the Slovenian, which was not even one of the violent attacks he knows how to place, Evenepoel gave up, outdated, unable to hold the light and rapid pedal of the Slovenian. The Olympic road champion during the Paris Olympics finally ranked 59<sup>e<\/sup> place, 3 min 11 s from the winner.<\/p>\n<section class=\"catcher catcher--favoris\">\n<div class=\"catcher__content\"><span class=\"catcher__title catcher__title--hide\">Read also |<\/span><span class=\"catcher__desc\">  <span class=\"icon__premium\"><span class=\"sr-only\">Article reserved for our subscribers<\/span><\/span>    Remco Evenepoel ready to challenge, finally, Tadej Pogacar on Li\u00e8ge-Bastogne-Li\u00e8ge <\/span> <\/div>\n<p> <button class=\"lmd-btn-icon lmd-btn-icon--primary lmd-btn-icon--m js-lmd-dropdown-favorite-toggler\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-haspopup=\"true\" aria-controls=\"lmd-dropdown-favorite\" aria-label=\"Lire plus tard\" data-article-id=\"3419957\" data-position=\"lire aussi\" data-url=\"https:\/\/www.lemonde.fr\/sport\/article\/2025\/04\/27\/remco-evenepoel-pret-a-defier-enfin-tadej-pogacar-sur-liege-bastogne-liege_6600520_3242.html\" data-status=\"\"> <span class=\"icon__favorites\"\/> <span class=\"js-btn-icon-tooltip\" aria-hidden=\"true\">Read later<\/span> <\/button> <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph  \">Once alone in mind, Pogacar accentuated his advance on his pursuers with regularity, taking advantage of each coast to grab a few more seconds.
