It was a difficult day for the American duo of Brandon McNulty and Magnus Sheffield in the men’s time trial at the Olympic Games in Paris.
National champion McNulty could not hide his disappointment after taking fifth, 1:04 down from winner Remco Evenepoel (Belgium). At the first time check, McNulty was 17 seconds behind eventual winner Evenepoel but could not keep up the speed up, losing more time by the second time check. He finished 39 second down on Wout Van Aert of Belgium, who won the bronze medal.
