The 2018 Strade Bianche was a road cycling one-day race that took place on 3 March 2018 in Italy.

It was the twelfth edition of the Strade Bianche and the fifth event of the 2018 UCI World Tour.

[2][3] Tiesj Benoot (Lotto–Soudal) took his first professional victory,[1] after attacking from a chasing group to catch leaders Romain Bardet (AG2R La Mondiale) and Wout van Aert (Vérandas Willems–Crelan) before dropping them in the final sector of dirt roads.

Benoot soloed to victory by 39 seconds ahead of Bardet,[4] who dropped van Aert in the final kilometre; van Aert, a three-time world elite cyclo-cross champion, ultimately completed the podium a further 19 seconds in arrears.

[5] Strade Bianche is the final race for FDJ under that nomenclature; from Paris–Nice the following day, the team becomes known as Groupama–FDJ.
