O fenômeno português João Silva, de apenas 22 anos, conquistou ontem a etapa de Yokohama (Japão) da World Championship Series, a primeira na história do Triathlon masculino português. Em meio a um startlist de 1ª linha, Silva fez a melhor corrida do dia nos 10km (30min19seg) para garantir a vitória debaixo de muito calor. “Esse percurso me favorece mais que Pequim. Eu gosto de calor”, disse o português.
A prova começou com 65 atletas nas águas quentes da baía de Yokohama para duas voltas de 750m. A primeira etapa da prova foi dominada pelos russos, que foram seguidos de perto por Silva. Na bike, um grupo com mais de 50 triatletas, no qual estavam os brasileiros Bruno Matheus e Juraci Moreira, pedalava junto nas curvas das ruas de Yokohama, situação que não se alterou até a T2.
Duas lendas vivas do Triathlon chegaram na frente na T2, o campeão olímpico Simon Whitfield (CAN) e o bicampeão mundial de Ironman, Chris McCormack, o Macca (AUS).

Na corrida, Silva não deu chances aos adversários, até cruzar a linha com 1:49:21, seguido do sempre regular Alexander Brukhankov (RUS) e de Dmitry Polyansky (RUS). Uma grande surpresa na prova foi Simon Whitfield. O duplo medalhista olímpico, mesmo com quase duas décadas no esporte, venceu o sprint com o americano Matt Chabrot para conquistar a 4ª colocação. Macca já não teve um final tão feliz. Sua corrida para 34min08seg foi suficiente para garantir apenas a 34ª colocação.
O melhor brasileiro na disputa foi Bruno Matheus, em 30º, seguido de Fabio Carvalho (47º), Juraci Moreira (49º) e Mauro Cavanha (50º). Wesley Matos não completou a disputa.
