Wiggins wins silver behind Martin

Great Britain's Sir Bradley Wiggins missed out on a first road world title as Germany's Tony Martin took a third consecutive time trial gold with a commanding ride in Florence. Wiggins, 33, overhauled Switzerland's Fabian Cancellara in the final third of the 57.9km course to win silver - as he did in the 2011 Championships. But Martin had built a lead from the start and came in 46.09 seconds ahead. "I knew it would be close but Tony was on a different level," said Wiggi.
