Italy finished second in the medals table at the track cycling world championships, with Elia Viviani retaining his title in the elimination event on Sunday to take the Azzurri's golden tally up to four.
After setting a new record for the hour, Filippo Ganna continued
his hot form by beating his compatriot Jonathan Milan on Friday
to claim the individual pursuit crown with a world record time
of 3:59.636 on Friday.
Martina Fidanza had gotten the Azzurri off to a winning start by
taking gold in the women's scratch event.
Fidanza was also part of the group that triumphed in the women's
Team Pursuit, along with Elisa Balsamo, Chiara Consonni and
Vittoria Guazzini.
Italy, who also won three silvers, was only bettered in the
medals table by the Netherlands, who won 10 medals - four golds,
four silvers and two bronzes.
