Wiggins leads GB to sub-4 minute team pursuit in Derby
Sir Bradley Wiggins has staked a claim to finish his career with a tilt at a fifth Olympic gold medal by leading Great Britain to a blisteringly fast team pursuit time at the Revolution Series in Derby on Friday evening.
The time of 3 minutes 54. 974 seconds would have been good enough to secure the bronze medal at London 2012, where Team GB set the current World Record of 3 minutes 51.659 seconds.
Two of the riders who won Olympic gold three years ago alongside Peter Kennaugh and Geraint Thomas were in the line-up tonight, Steven Burke and Ed Clancy.
