Filippo Ganna will try to break the hour record.
The two-time time trial world champion announced through his team, the Ineos Grenadiers.
The record assault will take place at the Tissot Velodrome in Grenchen, Switzerland on October 8, 2022 at 8pm.
"I can't wait to face the challenge, even if it will be an hour of pure suffering - the words of Ganna - It will be interesting to see how my body holds up and how far I can go: it is an opportunity to really test my your physical and mental limits. Taking on a prestigious event like this is an important step in my career. "
The 26-year-old Piedmontese champion will have to travel more than 55,548 kilometers to break the current world record, held by the British team's Performance Engineer Dan Bigham.
