Wonderful to see Philip O'Ganna bringing it home for Ireland.

Hahahahahahah

Stupid

[@shortdiver6545]

British commentators are absolutely the best. What a passion even with an "opponent" from other country. Amazing.

[@carmine1151]

I think in general is a general characteristic of who comments sports don't used in politics

[@pierpaolosciola2697]

In fact, they dropped their voices a lot after Filippo's impossible victory. Of course they were gassed and rooting for Bigham. It's normal, everyone cheers for their compatriots. What I didn't like was when Ganna, with a lordly gesture, waited for Bigham at the balustrade to pay his respects. It was a gesture that needed to be emphasized. But I understand the disappointment for a result that seemed to be achieved. The crowd, the humanity of the people, however, seems to have appreciated.

Indeed, and he nearly won the ITT as well.

[@silverblogsurfer9338]

Più la guardo e più mi sembra impossibile quello che ha fatto Ganna. Mostruoso.

[@dvdrmn85]

Di per sè ha fatto quello che fa sempre, un negative split, finendo più forte, è più Bigham che è partito a canna ed è esploso dopo i 3km, se guardi la velocità finisce a 56 orari con Ganna che si mette a fare 61-62!

[@silverblogsurfer9338]

[@dvdrmn85]

@@silverblogsurfer9338 boh, ma hai mai corso in pista? guardi la velocità di ganna e la velocità di bigham e capisci cosa stia succedendo scusa.. poi non è ovvio vincere, ma era solo per spiegare che non è solo Ganna ad avere spinto ma anche e soprattutto bigham ad essere esploso!

[@theemperormarshall3183]

Ganna could hold on the last rounds 62 km/h, while Bigham 'dropped' to 54 km/h, sensational 👌

[@venanziobrunetti1764]

Filippo is the BEST.

[@whatawonderification]

At the end was 62.9

[@matthewkalb7269]

Bigham trained Ganna. He knew what Ganna could do and tried a long, far out attack. Ganna, cold and calculated, by hook or by crook or by luck or by strength, came back to take it, goddamn incredible. I could watch this 1 million times over

[@morrisizing]

Another example of why this event should be in the Olympics. While the sprinters may argue otherwise, it is the blue ribbon track event.

[@NeilXDavis]

100% agree with you. When its good the IP is edge of the seat stuff. It is 1v1 in its purest form.

[@SilencedButNotForgotten]

It is not?! Crazy!

[@MicheleGardini]

It was truly amazing. Ganna won with a better distribution of efforts, Bigham put everything he had and even more but it wasn't enough. Two champions, both deserve our admiration.

[@brunoriva6203]

Amazing Pippo what a final kilometer that was, the commentating lady gasped at the last half lap, it was indeed shocking. Well done Pippo and congratulations to Bingham for a great race

[@claudioajola504]

Oh my Godness, incredible. Pippo Ganna is a monster.

Comunque, l'inseguimento è uno sport spettacolare anche in TV. Ora non voglio dire che è più spettacolare del ciclismo su strada, ma meriterebbe un pubblico maggiore in Italia. Ganna in altri paesi sarebbe un Dio, ospite fisso ovunque, sponsor a pioggia, e tutto meritato. Ma forse è colpa nostra che lo guardiamo solo nelle grandi occasioni e quando c'è un campione del genere.

That Individual Pursuit is any more an Olympic discipline (there is only team pursuit) is a shame, it was the most tradition race in track cycling and they removed it. It's unbelievable (in the most negative way) what years ago they chose to do.

[@luca4542]

Top Ganna ha mantenuto una velocità costante durante tutta la gara, Bigham ad un certo punto è scoppiato, è passato dai 62-63 km/h improvvisamente ai 53-54 km/h. Probabilmente è partito troppo forte, evidentemente oltre i suoi ritmi abituali

[@arrizzolu]

E' vero ha ceduto di schianto negli ultimi tre giri dove ha perso una enormità, è andata bene per Ganna ma davvero per un soffio.....

[@FrancescoGaudio-sx4yy]

@arrizzolu semplice questione tattica. Bingham conosce Ganna e sa che nessuno ha il suo finale. È partito a tutta cercando di mettere più distanza possibile, sapeva che era l'unico modo per cercare di batterlo. C'è andato vicino ma Pippo non molla mai.

[@arrizzolu]

Si è così si è trattato di una strategia pure valida che, buon per noi, alla fine non ha pagato 😊

[@francescojsb]

Dovrei vedere i tempi sui vari giri, ma a me sembra che negli ultimi giri Filippo abbia accelerato

[@valensi1988]

You gotta love UK commentators giving 0 chances to Ganna and being absolutely smashed by a 63 kph Italian train. Velodrome goes silent mode. I love it.

[@manuel7102]

They still honored Ganna's feat. I can't help but think our italian commentators would've become dead silent and not paying tribute to the ge better athlete

[@robinbeckford]

"it's not happening". Er, yes it is, Kirby.

[@VAFFANFEDE18]

Consider that Ganna being 1s faster in the last 1000m in the semi was considered an incredible feat, here he was 1s faster in the last 375 and 0.6 faster in the last 125

[@silverblogsurfer9338]

Sorry Bigham but ,as icaro said , fly near the Sun is dangerous....

[@pedrosarti9468]

[@dvdrmn85]

It's the difference between being able to hold 60+ km/h for more than just 4k and basically exploding after 3.5km (Bigham ended up doing 56-57km/h while Pippo was still able to push 61!)..
