Milan - San Remo and Tirreno-Adriatico have been postponed
Race organisers say work is underway to allocate new dates for the races
Tirreno-Adriatico
Where: Italy
When: March 11-17 2020
Rank: UCI WorldTour
The 2020 edition of Tirreno-Adriatico will see the week long stage race enter its 55th year.
Last year’s win went to Primož Roglič (Jumbo Visma), the Slovenian took victory on the final day with a margin of just one second ahead of Adam Yates (Mitchelton-Scott).
In 2018, the win was Michał Kwiatkowski’s, whilst 2017’s victor was Nairo Quintana who also won in 2015. Both Alberto Contador and Vincenzo Nibali have two wins to their names, too.
Tirreno-Adriatico often serves as a preparation ground for those aiming for Milan-San Remo glory as well as those riders thinking of taking home the maglia rosa at the Giro d’Italia in May.
But much like Paris-Nice, the other week-long stage race that runs concurrently, Tirreno has prestige in its own right, with a roll call of winners that would be the envy of any race.
