News – GB Christen Derby with a 3.54

Event Press Release

The biggest roar from the crowd on opening night of the Derby Revolution was delivered to the Great Britain Team Pursuit riders as they crossed the line after 4km in 3.54.974, 3 seconds off the World Record.

The team lined up for the final with Owain Doull, Steven Burke, Ed Clancy (replacing Jon Dibben) and Sir Bradley Wiggins. They were most certainly impressed with themselves after, ‘Wiggo’ pointing at his counterparts to say he couldn’t have done it without them.

The biggest shock of the night came as Callum Skinner lined up on the back straight; he would go head to head with the current 1km Time Trial World Champion, Francois Pervis and beat him by more than a second.

Pervis had what was a lacklustre night, made worse by a crash over the finish line when he got caught up with Matthew Rotherham of Maloja Pushbikers in the Sprinters Longest Lap. Rotherham looked to come off worse of the two.

Great Britain also brought a very fast team of Women. Joanna Rowsell Shand and Pearl Izumi teammate Ciara Horne went head to head in the final of the Individual Pursuit. Horne started fastest of the two, however Rowsell Shand being the former World Champion that she is pulled her back to win the race. Laura Trott finished third.

It was Katie Archibald that would go on to win the Women’s Scratch Race gaining a lap over the rest of the field half way through the 15km. Failed attempts would come from Horne who was perhaps looking to make up for her loss to Rowsell Shand earlier in the night.

The first night in Derby most certainly lived up to the hype with Great Britain dominating the race card.
