Here are a few pictures of the most important moments in the race:
Rigoberto Uran punctured after a few kilometers. 240 km later he was about to take Olympic gold... |
Team GB had control of the race from the very beginning. But on the last time on Box Hill they let too many attack... |
Tony Martin was the only rider helping out GB in the chase. He withdrew halfway through thinking of the time trial... |
Fabian Cancellara was in a perfect position but crashed. Vino, right behind him, managed to stay up and later won... |
Uran made a mistake on the last 150 meters and Vino wasn't late to take advantage and make sure he couldn't get caught. |
12 years after having to "give" Ullrich the win in Sydney Vino now finally got his Olympic gold medal... |
A devastated Cancellara knew he could have won. Instead of the podium he went to the hospital to get his shoulder checked. |
Vino 1st, Uran 2nd, Kristoff 3rd. If you had that combination right before the start, I salute you! |
It's real! Alexander Vinokourov wins Olympic gold in his last season as professional! That calls for respect... |
