The Felt Felbermayr Wels team started the difficult 19th Tour of Hellas (UCI 2.1) with an extremely strong performance. In the individual time trial in Thessaloniki over 6 kilometers, Felix Ritzinger took an excellent 4th place with a time of 06:55 minutes. The professional cyclist was faster with his time trial machine than the police allowed and achieved an average of 52.05 km/h. The track specialist was 12 seconds short of victory, but the Portuguese Iuri Letaho from the Continental Pro Team Caja Rural - Seguros RGA won the opener.
Successful start in Greece
