Now that the 12 competitions spread over nine days are over, it is clear they indeed nailed it. The event was both spectacular and inspiring for racers and spectators alike. Top performances of all winners in the various competitions set the stage for a climactic final: Peter Sagan as the first rider ever(!) to win three World Championships in a row.
