Ganna wants to break the world hour record in Grenchen
As his Ineos team announced, the 26-year-old will attempt to beat British rider Dan Bigham's record of 55.548 kilometres on the track in Grenchen, Switzerland, on 8 October. Bigham only set the current record in Grenchen on 19 August this year.
Ganna is currently regarded as the best time trialist in the world. The Italian won the title in this discipline in 2020 and 2021 and has won various stages in the battle against the clock in recent years.
