Today was held in Italy, the Cagliari Triathlon World Cup, where all eyes were on the participation of Alistair Brownlee, double World and Olympic champion who returned to compete in a WC event after more than a decade.
Everything points, that the Briton of 31 years is preparing the test of the WTS of Leeds, in June, but it is not ruled out that he wants to see if he can qualify for the Tokyo Olympics.
As for the test the first to get out of the water was Justus Nieschalg followed by Mark Dévay and Alistair Brownlee two seconds.
In the first kilometers of the cycling segment, no group formed and the whole peloton rolled together. Little by little a group in the lead (12 units) was formed with the strongest where Brownlee were but without any Spanish. Finally the group reached T2 43 seconds ahead of their pursuers to tackle the 5 km race on foot.
In the race they quickly left the group breaking a trio consisting of Alistair Brownlee, Kevin Mcdowell and Justus Nieschlah passing with 20 seconds ahead in the first round.
Finally Alistair Brownlee got the victory with a 52 time: 01 in a tight sprint with Justus Nieschlah who has finished second. Kevin Mcdowell has been the third classified trained to 12 seconds.
