Entering the final kilometres, Wiggins has nudged ahead of Cancellara for the first time, albeit by just one second.

Bradley Wiggins almost catches a flagging Phinney in the finishing straight, and he crosses the line with the new best time. His time of 1:06:22 is 39 seconds ahead of Kiryienka and 1:22 up on Phinney. Can can Cancellara respond?

It's one long sprint for Cancellara as he hurtles into the finishing straight, but he falls just short of Wiggins. He crosses the line two seconds down for provisional second place and - barring something very dramatic indeed - the bronze medal once Martin crosses the line.

[Bianchisti]

Martin punches the air as he stops the clock 41 seconds ahead of the wig. damn

[Tumbleweed]

Martin, Wiggo, Cancellara. Who called it right?
