Live updates from the 273.9km epic race around ZurichCat Ferguson on her double gold | And drop John a mail
Zurich has hosted an event that should not be remembered for the winner of its races. Instead, all thoughts might concentrate on the sad loss of Swiss rider Muriel Furrer, 18, who died after the women’s junior race. One of the cruelties of sport is that the show always goes on, though perhaps the departed want it that way, too. After Saturday’s thriller, with Lotte Kopecky winning the women’s race, and Friday, and when Niklas Behrens won the under-23 men’s road race, the course is familiar, though the weather might be better than much of the week. The contenders? Tadej Pogacar leads the list, of course. Can Remco Evenepoel, the Olympic Gold, put the pressure down? There’s Matthieu van der Poel, the defending champion. Let’s see, even if who actually wins cannot compete with the loss already suffered.
