Watch Il Lombardia 2024 to see if current world champion Tadej Pogacar can make it four in a row. The race of the falling leaves is not the end of the season, but it is the last of cycling's Monuments. Here’s where to watch 2024 Il Lombardia live streams online from anywhere – including any FREE streams.

The result maybe a foregone conclusion in many people's eyes but tell that to the riders who will line up against Pogacar with hopes and dreams of winning the 118th Il Lombardia. Remco Evenepoel, Primoz Roglic, Tom Pidcock and Marc Hirschi would love to take this classic race and add their name to list of winners and they will not give up without a fight, we hope.

Unfortunately for them though Pogacar is on such a different level it makes the rest look like amateurs so they may need misfortune to befall him in order to fight out for the win.

Due to heavy rain casing landslides there has been a last minute route change with the Passo di Ganda removed and replaced by the Selvino climb and the finish moved slightly to the Viale Felice Cavallotti. Also, in a shock move Team Ineos have 'deselected' their star rider Tom Pidcock for an as yet unknown reason to fuel speculation that his will soon be leaving the team for pastures new.

What is the 2024 Il Lombardia Route?

Starting in Bergamo and finishing 252 kilometres later in Como this year's Il Lombardia route is rammed with climbs including the Passo di Ganda at 50 kilometres and then the Colle di Valpiana at 104 kilometres before the race arrives at the legendary Madonna del Ghisallo after 173 kilometres.

By now the race will be taking shape and Pogacar may well have already ridden off to win but the final big test comes in the shape of the 13 kilometre Colma di Sormano with ramps as steep as 13%. After this there is one more test, just 5 kilometres before the line, the Fermo della Battaglia.

What are the Il Lombardia 2024 predictions?

Tadej Pogacar will win his fourth Il Lombardia in a row, that is the prediction and no one will tell you anything different. It will need an act of god to deny him another win in a race he is making his own and take him up to one shy of the all time record number of wins held by the late great Fausto Coppi who took five.

Of course other riders will be dreaming of victory and will take the start line hoping the world champion has a bad day, but incredible as they are Remco Evenepoel, Marc Hirschi, Primoz Roglic and Tom Pidcock are all racing for second place.

Simon Warren has been obsessed with cycling since the summer of 1989 after watching Greg Lemond battle Laurent Fignon in the Tour de France. Although not having what it took to beat the best, he found his forte was racing up hills and so began his fascination with steep roads. This resulted in his 2010’s best-selling 100 Greatest Cycling Climbs, followed to date by 14 more guides to vertical pain. Covering the British Isles, Belgium, France, Italy and Spain he has been riding and racing up hills and mountains for over 30 years now. He hosts talks, guides rides, has written columns for magazines and in 2020 released his first book of cycling routes, RIDE BRITAIN. Simon splits his time between working as a graphic designer and running his 100 Climbs brand and lives in Sheffield on the edge of the Peak District with his wife and two children.
