Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox Olympic event Шаблон:Cycling at the 2016 Summer Olympics
The men's road race was one of 18 cycling events of the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro. The race started and finished on 6 August at Fort Copacabana and was won by Greg Van Avermaet of Belgium. It was Belgium's first victory in the men's individual road race since 1952 and second overall, tying France and the Soviet Union for second-most behind Italy (five). Belgium matched Italy for most total medals, at seven. Jakob Fuglsang won Denmark's fourth silver medal in the event; the nation had yet to win gold. Rafał Majka's bronze was Poland's first medal in the event since 1980.
Qualification
Шаблон:Main article Nations could earn qualification spots primarily through UCI tours. The top five nations at the UCI World Tour earned five quota places, with nations further down the rankings earning progressively fewer quota places. There were also up to three places per nation available through continental tours and championships. Individuals could also earn places if their nation's ranking was insufficient. A few places were reserved for the host nation and Tripartite Commission invitations.[1]
Background
This was the 20th appearance of the event, previously held in 1896 and then at every Summer Olympics since 1936. It replaced the individual time trial event that had been held from 1912 to 1932; the time trial had been re-introduced in 1996 alongside the road race. Azerbaijan, the Dominican Republic, Kosovo, and Laos each made their debut in the men's individual road race. Great Britain made its 20th appearance in the event, the only nation to have competed in each appearance to date.
Pre-race favourites
Due to the grueling nature of the course, the riders expected to finish with a medal were all known for their climbing and descending skills.Шаблон:According to whom Favorites heading into the race were Alejandro Valverde, Vincenzo Nibali, Chris Froome, Joaquim Rodríguez and Julian Alaphilippe.[2] If Froome had won gold, he would have become the first person to ever win Tour de France and the cycling road race in the same season.[3]
Course
The men's course was Шаблон:Convert long. Starting at Fort Copacabana,[4] the peloton headed west to pass through Ipanema, Barra, and Reserva Maripendi Beaches via the coastal road leading to the Шаблон:Convert Pontal / Grumari circuit loop.[5] After four laps of the Grumari sector (99.2 km of 241.5 km), the course returned east via the same coastal road to enter the Шаблон:Convert Vista Chinesa Circuit loop at Gávea for three laps (Шаблон:Convert of Шаблон:Convert) before finishing back at Fort Copacabana.[6] As with all road races in the Olympic Games, the athletes are escorted by law enforcement to keep traffic and bystanders out of harm's way. For the 2016 Olympics, escort for the riders is done by the Brazilian Federal Highway Police (PRF).
