The road race among professional cyclists (279,3 km or 32 rounds) was won by the Belgian Rik Van Looy, who defeated last year's world champion André Darrigade in a group sprint. In the 61,1 km women's race, Britain's Beryl Burton won.[3] East German Bernhard Eckstein became world amateur champion after a race of 174,6 km (20 rounds).[4]
