- Tarling gets bronze in men’s elite individual time trial
- Wiggins takes silver behind Oscar Chamberlain in junior event
British teenagers Josh Tarling and Ben Wiggins claimed medals in the men’s time trial disciplines at the world championships as Remco Evenepoel became the first Belgian rider to win the elite men’s world title.
Tarling, a first-year professional, stunned his peers by occupying the leader’s hot seat for most of the afternoon until Evenepoel, the 2022 world road race champion, and the Italian time-trial specialist Filippo Ganna proved quicker on the 47.8km course around Stirling.
