Two-time time trial world champion Filippo Ganna has set a world hour record. The Italian managed 56.792 kilometers on the track in Grenchen, Switzerland.
With that, Ganna clearly improved on the old record of Brit Dan Bigham (55.548). Bigham only set the old record on August 19 of that year.
Ganna is one of the best time trialists in the world. The Italian won the title in this discipline in 2020 and 2021 and has won various stages in a number of tours in recent years in a fight against the clock. In addition, he was four times world champion in the single pursuit on the track.
