After the blackout in qualifying that cost him the final, the Olympian goes wild and goes to take back the Swiss Imhof after just 2375 meters over 4 km. It is his sixth medal in the individual test since 2016. A triumphal season, between the pink jersey and the Olympic gold with the quartet. For Italy it is the fifth medal in these World Cups
And now he can finally go on vacation, after a season that started (on the road) at the beginning of February in Besseges, France, and 10 thousand kilometers in the race. On the Jean Stablinski velodrome in Roubaix, a stone’s throw from the other velodrome where he conquered the Roubaix Under 23, Filippo Ganna closes 2021 with a bronze medal in the individual pursuit: it is the specialty that in 2016, he was still an amateur with the Colpack team , made it known to the world with the first of the four world championship triumphs.
After the blackout at the start in the qualification, which cost him the very final for the gold (4’06 ”402, 7/10 from the other blue Milan), Ganna does not miss the final for the bronze. He is a fury and goes to take back the Swiss Imhof after just 2375 meters over 4 km. There are regrets: in the last kilometer of the qualification, Ganna recovers a second and a half (!) To the American Lambie, best time. For the Piedmontese of Ineos-Grenadiers, who in 2021 won on the road and track, in line, in time trials (he also wore the first pink jersey of the 2021 Giro in Turin) and with the quartet, he is the sixth medal at the World Championships in individual pursuit after the 4 golds (2016, 2018, 2019 and 2020) and the silver in 2017. For Italy it is the fifth medal in these World Championships, after the three golds (Fidanza, quartet and Paternoster) and the silver of the quartet women.
