Live streams from the Amstel Gold Race 2026 represent the first of the Ardennes Classic trio and the moment when the cycling season moves from the cobbles to the hills, where climbers traditionally dominate. Tadej Pogacar is absent among the men, but Mattias Skjelmose returns to defend his title.
The Dane pulled off arguably the biggest upset of last season, winning a sprint against Pogacar to become one of the few riders to beat the great Slovenian in 2025. Pogacar won’t line up this year – nor will fellow Big Three members Wout van Aert or Mathieu van der Poel – and neither will Tom Pidcock after his crash in the Volta a Catalunya, but there will still be a stacked men’s peloton.
Remco Evenepoel, also beaten by Skjelmose over the line 12 months ago, will once again be among the favorites, while Irishman Ben Healey appears to have been targeting this race all season and could well climb the Ardennes climbs before the finish at Berg en Terblijt.
This is where the women’s race also ends – it starts in Maastricht, like the men’s – and reigning champion Mischa Bredewold is back again to defend her crown. Competition will come from Demi Vollering, European champion and recent winner of the Tour of Flanders.
