Liège-Bastogne-Liège 2023: Breakout Stars and Setbacks.

Ben Healy finished fourth in the Liège-Bastogne-Liège race after being outsprinted by Tom Pidcock and Santiago Buitrago on Quai des Ardennes. Healy had been well positioned in Remco Evenepoel’s orbit ahead of the attack and although he was unable to track the world champion’s acceleration, he rode doggedly in pursuit of second place. The 22-year-old Irishman has already won the GP Industria & Artigianato and a stage of the Settimana Coppi e Bartali this season, and he is now set to return to Italy for a Grand Tour debut at the Giro d’Italia.
