Airdate: Cadel Evans Great Ocean Road Race

Seven will screen the Cadel Evans Great Ocean Road Race this Sunday, hosted by Mark Beretta, with commentary from Phil Liggett, Matt Keenan & Robbie McEwen.

It’s the strongest line-up of international and Australian teams in the event’s history, as the top five men’s UCI WorldTour teams battle it out in the Cadel Evans Great Ocean Road Race.

Cadel Evans, ­­­Australia’s only Tour de France winner, continues to be closely involved in the creation and planning of the elite cycling event. Inspired by the prestigious Spring Classics of Europe, the Cadel Evans Great Ocean Road Race will again feature on the UCI WorldTour Calendar.

The Cadel Evans Great Ocean Road Race will be hosted by Sunrise sports presenter Mark Beretta, with expert commentary from the ‘voice of cycling’ Phil Liggett. Tour de France commentator Matt Keenan will provide race commentary, with former cycling star Robbie McEwen – a triple winner of the Green sprinters jersey in the Tour De France – right in the middle of the action reporting live from a motorbike as he follows the 111 riders.

Sam Lane will be reporting on all the colour and action from around the course as the teams race through some of Victoria’s most scenic but challenging roads.

The 164km course for the Elite Men’s Road Race starts at Geelong’s waterfront, heads southeast through Cadel’s hometown of Barwon Heads to Thirteenth Beach, then along the coast through Torquay and Bells Beach before winding back through the rolling Ceres hills to Geelong.

The Elite Women’s Road Race will be streamed Live on 7plus on Saturday January 27 and highlights will also be on Channel 7, 7TWO and 7plus on Sunday January 28 from 10am. This year’s race will see the best and fastest riders in women’s cycling as they race for victory in the first women’s One Day Classic of the 2018 season.
