Skiing legend Hermann Maier gave his opinion to Austrian paper Oesterreich on the road race course, saying he "has always found cycling a fascinating sport." A keen cyclist himself, Maier turned out a pretty decent time when he appeared as a guest rider at the Tour de France prologue a few years ago.
Despite the sizeable amount of climbing involved in the race routes, he predicts that the road race "will be decided in a sprint," claiming, "It's not as hard as I thought it would be."
