POLAND (WAM)

UAE Team Emirates' Tim Wellens secured his victory on the stage 2 Time Trial at the Tour of Poland.

The Belgian champion clocked a blistering time of 23’59” for the 15.4km course, which was a gradual rolling climb from Mysłakowice to the finish in Karpacz.

UAE had plenty to write home about, placing four cyclists in the top-10 with Felix Grossschartner (4th), Diego Ulissi (6th) and Jan Christen (9th).

Ulissi now sits in 3rd place on GC behind overall leader Jonas Vingegaard (Visma LAB) at 25” ahead of tomorrow’s hilly stage from Wałbrzych to Duszniki-Zdrój (156.5km).
