2022 Tour de Suisse Women – Stage Two Highlights

Report

Kristen Faulkner took victory in the Individual Time Trial at the Tour de Suisse Women by a margin of 14 seconds, and stepped into the overall lead of the race too, on a remarkable day for Team BikeExchange-Jayco.

Incredible rides from Faulkner, Georgia Williams and Georgia Baker saw the team take a clean sweep of the podium.

Williams, wearing her New Zealand TT champions kit, had taken the hotseat with a blistering time of 32’00 flat, going an incredible 1’14” clear of the next rider in the provisional standings at that point.

Faulkner improved on her team-mate’s time by 14 seconds to slot into top spot, as the pair then waited in anticipation of confirmation of the result, as the remainder of the field completed the course.

To crown the day, Baker recorded the third-fastest time, coming in at just over a minute off Faulkner.

With the final rider of the day crossing the line and unable to dislodge any of the Team BikeExchange-Jayco three, the result was final.
