Sarah Storey added to her haul of global titles on a great day for Great Britain’s Para riders at the 2024 Road and Para-cycling World Championships in Switzerland.

The 46-year-old beat British team-mate Morgan Newberry, 25, into second place to retain her women’s C5 road race title in Zurich on Saturday.

Fran Brown claimed gold as the only rider in the C1 category, while fellow GB rider Daphne Schrager won a sprint for silver in the C2 race in which team-mate Amelia Cass finished fourth.

Storey pulled away from the field on the opening climb of the day in the C5 race, before completing the rain-drenched 70.2km course in one hour 55 minutes 28 seconds, more than seven minutes ahead of the field.

Victory followed Storey’s win on Sunday in the C4-C5 individual time trial, and repeated the road and time-trial double she won at the 2023 World Championships in Glasgow.
