Pre-race favorites

Defending champion Tadej Pogačar was widely considered by analysts to be the top favorite, having won the race twice before in 2021 and 2024, and coming into the race showing strong form by winning the Tour of Flanders and La Flèche Wallonne. Remco Evenepoel, also a two-time champion, was another top contender, alongside Mattias Skjelmose, who out-sprinted Pogačar and Evenepoel a week earlier to win the Amstel Gold Race. Other riders mentioned in pre-race analysis included Tom Pidcock, Kevin Vauquelin, Ben Healy, Lennert Van Eetvelt, Santiago Buitrago, and Romain Bardet.[2][3]

Teams

25 teams took part in the race, including all eighteen UCI WorldTeams and seven UCI ProTeams.[4] The Uno-X Mobility team wore retro 7-Eleven jerseys for the race, a callback to the 7-Eleven sponsored-team that raced in the 1980s. The jerseys, worn only for this single race, were intended to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the former team's debut at the race, and highlight sponsor Reitan's relationship with 7-Eleven in Scandinavia.[5]
