Welcome to what could be the most interesting NC of the year. Flat course but no natural sprinters across any nation, leaving this NC fully open.
With 5.5km to go Siddikov, Goldstein and Yechezkel goes for an attack that quickly gets a 15 second gap.
Under the red kite they still hold a gap and get to decide the race between them!
Yechezkel wins the sprint, as Siddikov claims the Uzbek NC, Chaiyasombat wins the Thai crown, Nyoni wins the Swazi jersey as Alben wins the Indian NC.
