2020 Hamburg Wasser World Triathlon - Elite Mens Highlights

The field was deep with talent and experience and the race always looked like being hugely unpredictable given the past 6 months, but it was to be France’s Vincent Luis who delivered a composed sprint-distance performance and a brilliant second consecutive world title at the 2020 Hamburg Wasser World Triathlon. After an excellent swim had helped put him in a front bike pack that included Alistair Brownlee and another Frenchman Dorian Coninx, it was on the run that the 2019 champion was able to pull away with only teammate Leo Bergere and Portuguese Vasco Vilaça for company, the 20-year-old holding on for a brilliant silver in only his second WTS outing.

when that S-Works bike fell on the ground... i felt that

[@tonylo6013]

luckily he will get a new one which would also be free. Im guessing specialized paid some advertsing money for tv coverage. the ladies race had the same view also but two bikes together during the last transition.

What were the cycling and running distances?

[@b0bChoK]

It was a "sprint" format : 750m swim, 18,9km bike, 5km run

[@cshan159]

b0bChoK thanks!!

[@violafreak14]

Luis's right foot turns out and rolls in so much when he runs. Hopefully not going to lead to injury with those shoes.

[@SR77SR]

so sorry for stornes!

[@jerryagnasinii3640]

Can you stop making the winner the thumbnail of the video. It makes it less exciting to watch

[@MrSushi57]

Amazing athletes, gives me a huge amount of boost ! Brought to you by PETROL ! Such a shame

[@shadowandreality]

Well, almost every sport event is sponsored bij some toxic drink like beer or RB. I agree it has nothing to do with sports, but somehow people prefer these and it gives the pro athletes a full time job.

[@YeNZeC]

Vincents running form though... Bow legs.

[@mattofthenorth]

No that’s just a lot of quad muscle and no chub rub. Last couple strides before the tape was just a celebration shuffle.

[@ITCarlos]

Vilaça! It's pronounced VilaSSa :)

[@ruwiki]

you expect the English to pronounce non-English words correctly?

[@ITCarlos]

@@ruwiki I expect someone who is paid to narrate to say their names properly yes. Imagine that bc of his english language sounds he insults someone in someone else's language? Or someone who's blind not reconizing an athlete by the way a paid to do his job folk speaks? Or... your ruwiki name sound aoki? Or imagine... the athlete deserving to have their name said properly when they jump on the podium... people have feelings! You know? Ahahah R E S P E C T

[@muhammadilham1074]

Ada orang Indonesia ngak?

[@VicenteCala]

Can you guys tell me what the ITU is thinking about to set a World Championship with these conditions: 1 - In just one race instead of several. 2 - In the first official race after the Covid. 3 - Without some of the best athlets, who couldnt travel to Hamburg because of the restriction of travelling (like Schouman) 4 - And last and worst, in sprint distance... I dont wonder why Gómez-Noya didnt even bother to take place.

[@KaitiakiEnduranceSports]

Not a very inclusive world champs when so many top athletes could not be present ☹️

[@red-onecpasmoijetaitentrai3400]

Euh the best were there including the best at that Time Vincent luis

[@williamalvarado1419]

Why suck at 1 sport when you can suck at 3😃

[@augustinzeller3669]

Vincent est trop facile depuis trop longtemps, ça me fait peur

Das Radfahren könnten die weglassen. Ist doch ein Schwimm-Lauf-Wettkampf. In dem Peloton (1:58) kann man einbeinig mitrollen.

[@maxmustermann4915]

Ich vermute jetzt mal, dass das kurz vor einer scharfen Kurve ist. Freiwillig fährt da keiner langsam. Und ein Blick in die Ergebnisliste würde dir auch nicht schaden. 24 Minuten für 20 km Radfahren schafft du bestimmt nicht

[@mooNylou]

Des Weiteren ist das Radfahren deutlich härter aufgrund von immer wiederkehrenden Kurven. Komplett auf 0 runter und wieder auf 45kmh hoch jede 1,5 km. Solche Spitzen muss man erstmal verkraften können.

[@Hugo-Schlonz]

Das fahren die in jedem Kirmes-Kriterium in der C-Klasse.

[@maxmustermann4915]

@@Hugo-Schlonz Du hast einfach keine Ahnung

[@Hugo-Schlonz]

Nein, du hast keine Ahnung.

Veranstaltungen dieser Größenordnung gehören nicht in eine Großstadt. Die Anwohner sind genervt, vom Verkehrschaos ganz abgesehen. Unerträglich und rücksichtslos.
