With a 5th place in the German Individual Time Trials at the end of June, Justin Wolf missed the podium by 24 seconds and was beaten only by riders from World Tour Teams.

Due to his results, he was nominated by the German Cycling Federation for the European Championships. In addition to the time trial in the mixed team relay, he is currently also set for the road race next Sunday to support Pascal Ackermann in his title ambitions.
