Ethan Hayter takes the overall lead in the Tour of Britain when Ineos won the team time trial | Tour in the UK

Ethan Hayter packs his 23rd year more than most people can, and after his Ineos team won the Tour of Britains 18km time trial in South Wales, he increased the lead of his home tour to six stage wins and Olympia silver medal this season. On Wednesdays, he goes on an extremely tough mountain stage north of the principality with a narrow lead over two of his race favorites, Wout Van Aert and Julian Alaphilippe.

The 22-year-old from South London won the overall standings at the Tour of Norway a few weeks ago, but the race on the British Tour is at a different level and on Wednesdays a long, steep finish climbs the Great Orme above Llandudno, a 16-second margin at Van Aert and 23 seconds at Alaphilipple offers little room for maneuver. It’s hard to control, we’re against it, but it’s better to be 16 seconds ahead than behind, Hayter said.

Given the season the Londoner has enjoyed, whether he stays in the Orme lead or not before the race reaches Aberdeen on Sunday, there’s a good chance he’ll add more wins to the record, making him already Ineoss ’most productive winner of the season. So far in 2021, he has competed in six stage races and has taken stage victories in five.

Robin Carpenter, the leader of the Night of the Night Games, managed to resist his own doubts when he depended on his teammates in the rally. Cycling, but their 11th place finish at the Welsh National Botanic Gardens in Camarthenshire meant they were well off the big picture and he dropped to 12th place.

A successful team time trial looks completely seamless, but in fact, mistakes have little margin, and misfortune or calculation error can be costly. Van Aert left the front wheel point to ruin his teammate Pascal Eenkhorn, causing the Jumbo-Visma team to lose time in the final mile while waiting for the Dutchman to catch up.

The British team Ribble-Weldtite lost well over eighth, but Simon Wilson’s early breakup cost them time, although they enjoyed a perfect time compared to WorldTour’s Qhubeka Nexthash, which split into two groups of two over the last hill and spent the last mile trying to figure out who was where.

The Alaphilippes Deceuninck-Quick-Step team was half dead with Ineos, but their time trial expert Tony Martin is in a long tooth compared to Ineoss expert Rohan Dennis, a unique time trial silver medalist in Tokyo; However, the second place left the world champion neatly finished, and there were still many ups and downs with which Hayter was able to experience his short but very promising career.
