Sarah van de Vel (ninth) was the best Belgian.
Swiss Reusser wins women’s time test at European Championships
Ellen van Dijk (2016-2019) and Anna van der Bregen (2020) have highlighted Dutch dominance working against the clock in recent years, but Van der Bregen sent her cat and knew halfway through that her star V jersey would not fall from the sky.
Marilyn Rosser put the Dutchman there in 7 seconds and then started eating the riders for it.
It surpassed Lisa Brenauer’s bronze to a large extent summed up her time trial. In the end, the difference was wide and clear.
“I really liked this course and knew my legs were so great,” replied the 29-year-old Swiss, who has made tremendous progress in recent years and took the silver medal in a time-tested at the Games.
“I just had to give everything and I was good from start to finish. I’m very satisfied.”
“I am especially looking forward to experiencing the World Cup in Belgium, because it will be on my birthday (September 20).”
Watch the conclusion:
Sarah van de Vel: ‘I wanted to do better than my number and it worked’
Sarah van de Vel recorded the best Belgian performance in ninth place with the fastest time. The former triathlete laughed: “Last week the test time experience at Wargame was disappointing. My coach said she’d be fine and now it’s proven.”
“I decided a year ago to stop triathlon. I feel like I’ve made progress.”
“Last year I was 22nd or so, now I wanted to do better than my number 13 and it worked.”
Ann-Sophie Duyck, who took silver at the European Championships in 2017, appears to be free of complaints after several physical harassment. She was in thirteenth place. It was difficult, but the trial could have taken a little longer.”
