Team Jumbo-Visma (Japan) - Press Release: Primoz Roglic has become Olympic time trial champion in Tokyo. The Slovenian was over a minute faster than number two Tom Dumoulin. The Dutchman conquered the silver medal, just like five years ago. The Australian Rohan Dennis completed the podium.

The Olympic time trial was held on and around the Fuji Speedway. The 44.2 kilometre course had 846 altitude metres. From the first intermediate points it was clear that Roglic and Dumoulin were working on a strong race. Roglic was able to increase his lead on his competitors in the second part and brilliantly rode to the Olympic title. With this he took revenge on a disappointing Tour de France earlier this month, which he had to leave injured.
