Great Britain have won women’s gold and men’s silver in the team pursuit at the UEC European Track Championships.
Anna Morris, Josie Knight, Neah Evans and Katie Archibald beat reigning champions Italy by more than two seconds over the four-kilometre mark.
In fact the women’s quartet blew world champions Italy out of the water to the top spot with a time of 4:13.890 – over two seconds quicker than their opponents’ 4:16.018.
The men’s team of Oliver Wood, Ethan Vernon, Dan Bigham and Charlie Tanfield attempted to replicate the women’s success in their gold medal race with Italy, but instead finished with respectable silver medals.
The bronze medal went to France, who edged out Denmark by less than two hundredths of a second.
