Erik Zabel
Person
Born
Zabel won Milan-San Remo four times between 1997 and 2001, the specialist sprinter's answer to the classics. His wins show what San Remo really is: 290 km of patience, then holding the wheel over the Cipressa and Poggio for a flat finish on the Via Roma. He also later admitted to doping in that period.
