Gustav Erik Larsson

Gustav Erik Larsson absolutely belongs to the world’s best time-trialists, which he proved with second places in this discipline at the Olympic Games in Beijing (2008) and at the World Championships in Mendrisio (2009). He also won the final time trial of the Giro d'Italia 2010. As Larsson has an above average climbing ability, the Swede can play an important role in short and long stage races as well. 2012 will be an important year for him with the Olympic Games and the World Championships time trial for teams on the calendar. As Larsson is also the person who can guide other riders during a race, his knowledge in time trials will certainly be most helpful for the team in the World Championship team time trial.
