In the latest episode of the Cycling News Podcast from Sportful and Pinarello, we look back on an impressive weekend at the UCI Road World Championships in Imola, Italy.

Focusing on the elite men's and women's road races, we hear from some of the stars of the show, including Wout Van Aert, Marc Hirschke, Michał Kwiatkowski, Anna van der Breggen, Annemiek van Fluten, Elisa Longo Borghini ...

Van der Breggen became the first elite rider since 1995 to win a road race and time trial at the same time, while Julien Alaphilippe attacked on the final climb of the race to win his first road title.

We look back at both races and discuss Dutch domination, where and how both races were won, and what these results mean for the rest of the season.
