168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Tony Martin has named reigning 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Tour de France champion 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Chris Froome as his favourite for this summer’s 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Olympic Games time trial. Martin and Froome were on the podium in London four years ago with the Gerౠman taking silver ahe❀ad of Froome’s bronze. Bradley Wiggins won the event.

Back then the course was somewhat flat in comparison to the course in Rio, with only a few undulations to deal with. In Rio de Janeiro later this year, the riders will face♊ a much more challenging prospect with two loops of a hilly course. Martin is no slouch on a climb however, perhaps more so after his disappointment in the time trial at the World Championships last year, he knows that he is up against it and taking home a medal will be a victory within itself.

“I think that the podium will be di𒉰fferent from the 📖Olympics to the Worlds. My big favourite is Froome for the Olympics, Dumoulin and hopefully me,” Martin told the press at an Etixx-QuickStep training camp in Calpe, Spain.

“It’s hard to say because it isn’t really a classic time trial. It’s more for climbers. There are a few guys who can really go for the medals.”
For Martin, it is the World Championships in Qatar this October, that provides him with his best opportunity of a title. A victory there would be his fourth, putting him equal with Fabian Cancellara for the number of time t𒀰rial world titles. Cancellara is yet to decide if he will ride the time trial at the Worlds in his final season but he could be in competition with Martin for the title.

Martin believes that there is a big number of riders that could walk away wi𝐆th the title but he has some extra motivation after missing out so drastically in Richmond four months ago.

“First of all I want to show that ไI’m back in the Worlds after losing so hard last year. We’ve changed a lot and I really want to show that I’m back in business,” said Martin. “For the Worlds, there are guys like Dumoulin, Cancellara, Malori was strong last year, and me. I think it’s more open in the last years.”

Martin has been meticulous in his approach to hi🌸s goals for the 2016 season, testing new equipment, po🐭sitions and training programmes.

Even during the short two-hour ride ahead of the afternoon with the media this Friday, he made a mid-ride switch to his time trial bike to try out a new position on his bike and he is determined to find the right fit before the season truly gets going. He had mooted the idea of using the time trial heavy Giro d’Italia as potential preparation but in the end will use the Tour de France as his final race before the Olympic Games.
