The Race: Last year, while earning his third consecutive world time trial championship, Tony Martin beat second-place Bradley Wiggins by 46 seconds. Today the order was reversed, Wiggins kept Martin from earning his fourth world time trial title, beating the German by 26 seconds.
Wiggins was behind Martin at the first time check, but was ahead at the second check and kept his lead to the end by riding a sizzling 60.7 km/hr.
Though Wiggins is the 2012 Olympic time trial champion and won the 2012 Tour de France largely through his skill at riding against the clock, this is Sir Bradley's first world chrono title.
