UCI TRACK CYCLING WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS, POLAND – NZ WRAP DAY 4 (March 3rd 2019)

Twenty-year-old Campbell Stewart has claimed his first elite rainbow jersey after victory in the omnium on the fourth day of the UCI Track World Championships in Poland.
The Vantage Windows & Doors Elite New Zealand rider produced a stunning display, lapping the field with Frenchman Benjamin Thomas late in the race which gave him a commanding lead.
Kirstie James finished fourth in the women’s 3000m individual pursuit. She qualified fourth fastest in 3:28.407 to earn a bronze medal match against Germany’s Lisa Klein. The German stepped up to claim the ride-off with James settling for a well-earned fourth place, while teammate Bryony Botha was fifth.
