Sam Bennett claims third spot on fourth stage of UAE Tour
Sharpe, Murphy, Gillespie and Griffin finished just 0.66 seconds behind the Australian squad, netting fifth in the competition. The Australian riders went on to the bronze medal final and finished fourth there.“It was important for the women’s team pursuit to start Olympic qualification strongly and fifth place at UEC European Championships was a solid result,” he said.
“There’s still a lot of work to do over the next year to secure a spot in the Paris Games but the gap to the top nations is closing and we’re learning a lot and growing in confidence with every ride.”Elsewhere, Sam Bennett went close to his second win of the season on Friday’s fourth stage of the UAE Tour, netting third into the finish in Umm al Quwain.
Bennett was better positioned than on Thursday’s stage, being led out from the front by team-mate Danny van Poppel, but had to hold back rather than jumping too soon into what was a strong headwind.
