John Carter (CCACHExBodywrap) won the sprint for victory in the U23 men's criterium at the AusCycling Road National Championships, after a stretched out group charged up the short finishing straight of the new course in Western Australia.

Carter – who last year was third in the criterium and also came third in the time trial on Wednesday –  had time to celebrate in front of the home crowd as he charged across the line ahead of South Australian Leo Zimmerman in second and Brayden Bloch of New South Wales in third.
