The 2025 edition of the
Amstel Gold Race is one that will live long in the memory of cycling fans as
Mattias Skjelmose upset the all-star duo of
Tadej Pogacar and
Remco Evenepoel in a thrilling, three-up fight for the line.
As is the custom at the Amstel Gold Race, the riders on the final podium a gifted a cool pint of the race sponsor. Whilst traditionally, the podium then celebrate their success by embarking on another race - who can down a pint the quickest? This time around it was a different story. Pogacar may have been defeated at the finish line, but there was no stopping the world champion with a pint of Amstel in his hand as the Slovenian chugged down the whole glass in style. Skjelmose and Evenepoel however, weren't in quite such a party mood, swiftly putting their drinks down - out of sight and out of mind.
