The Greek Championship is held on a flat course and has Tzortzakis written all over it.
Surprisingly it's not Festina chasing but some amateurs who are fan of the Reddit team. We can see other fans with Repsol, Carrefour and Oberfranken jerseys, as well as a lot of Festina and Adidas.
The break of amateurs caught in the final lap around the track. The Reddit riders form a train for their pro Koumpetsos. Tzortzakis is on his wheel to get the best possible lead-out. Giannoutsos and Soulious think they have a shot.
A rogue Reddit amateurs spoils the party by going for his own glory, and another one blocks Koumpetsos when he wants to start his sprint. All Tzortzakis has to do is catch and pass the amateur.
The amateur stands no chance against the best Greek sprinter.
Georgos Tzortzakis, champion of Greece! The Mavic car driver finishes second initially, but would be disqualified due to motor assistance. Soulious is ranked second while Koumpetsos completes the podium, and needs to talk to his so-called fans.
The question is not: who will win the Greek National Time Trial Championship? The question is: by what margin will Vlatos win?
No need to talk about anyone else. Vlatos obliterates the opposition and finishes in a record-breaking 1h04'38, 5'21 ahead of Ioannidis. He overtook the three riders who started in front of him including Ioannidis.
Panagiotis Vlatos winning was a foregone conclusion.
