Fred Wright claimed his second elite men's road race title at the British Road Championships, outsprinting Lewis Askey (NSN) and Connor Swift (Netcompany Ineos) by a wheel in a tense three-rider finish. The Pinarello-Q36.5 rider's only two professional victories have both been national titles, the first one coming in 2023.
Swift bridged up to a four-rider break, which included Wright and Askey on the first of the five local laps in Aberystwyth. The quintet, which also included Mattie Dodd (Ineos Grenadiers Racing Academy), Elliot Rowe (Visma-Lease a Bike Devo Team) worked well together to build an unassailable lead of almost three minutes with 11 kilometres to go.
