Marlen Reusser Retains World Time Trial Title at the Road World Championships
Reusser beat Zoe Bäckstedt by 40.11 seconds and Franziska Koch by 45.54 seconds on a course built for specialists.
- On Sunday, Remco Evenepoel won the men's elite individual time trial at the UCI Road World Championships in Montreal, finishing the 39.2km course in 44:53 to claim his fourth consecutive world title.
- The technical 39.2km Montreal course featured a section on the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve with numerous 90-degree corners that tested rider handling. Evenepoel led through every intermediate time check, building a dominant advantage from the start.
- Italy's Filippo Ganna finished 57 seconds behind to secure silver, while 19-year-old French rider Paul Seixas took bronze in his elite debut, finishing 1:13 down on the winner.
- Swedish rider Jakob Soderqvist, who held a podium position early, crashed on a 90-degree corner with less than 3km remaining. He limped across the finish line, ultimately placing fifth after losing time in the final 10km.
- Evenepoel's victory equals the record for overall world time-trial titles held by Swiss cyclist Fabian Cancellara and German cyclist Tony Martin. Competitors now shift focus to the road race next Sunday, with some riders competing in Tuesday's mixed relay.
