Filippo Ganna got his season back on track after being forced out of the Giro d’Italia due to COVID-19, with the Ineos Grenadiers rider dominating the Italian national time trial championships to retain the tricolore jersey for another year. 

Ganna has been training at altitude recently and is expected to target the time trial and pursuit events on the track at the Glasgow World Championships before riding the Vuelta a España. He will not ride the Tour de France.
