Great Britain's Ethan Hayter continued what has been a stunning breakthrough season at the World Championships time trial in Flanders, finishing in eighth place on what was his debut in the elite event.

The 23-year-old has racked up eight wins for Ineos Grenadiers so far in 2021, and last week narrowly missed the Tour of Britain overall victory to time trial silver medallist Wout van Aert (Belgium).
