Soren Waerenskjold made it two Norwegian victories from two time trials in the men’s World Championships under-23 race in Wollongong.

Great Britain’s Leo Hayter spent almost an hour in the hotseat before being usurped by Waerenskjold, having sailed around the circuit and producing a blistering time.

Unlike his elder brother, Ethan, who rode the senior race yesterday, Hayter got round without mechanical incident. Having almost secured silver, he was nudged into bronze by the penultimate rider to start, Belgium’s Alec Segaert.

Ad The under-23 course, six kilometres shorter than the one senior riders competed on a day earlier, was no less technical. The circuit contained a number of fast corners for the riders to contend with.
