They are talking of shortening the finish straight, and throwing in some extra climbs on the Piaggio mainly so an Italian can win.

Nice article, well thougt through. A great remark with relevance to this thread from the article:

 

"Tactical cunning and sheer sangfroid are just as important a part of a classic winner's make up as raw power, as Gerrans demonstrated on Saturday"

Simon Gerrans’ Milan-San Remo power meter data

GreenEdge and SRM released Simon Gerrans’ complete power file from Milan-San Remo, offering a very rare insight into what it takes to win one of cycling’s monuments.

A few highlights include a stint at 1,188 watts to stay with Fabian Cancellara and Vincenzo Nibali up the Poggio, 400 watts over the final 2km (even behind Cancellara, who was likely doing 550 watts or more), followed by a 1,300-watt sprint at 60kph after 300km to take the win. No problem, right?

All the data can be found on SRM’s website.
