Cummings wins Tour of Britain
Dimension Data rider Cummings, 35, was runner-up in 2008 and 2011 and became only the second Briton to win the race since its 2004 rebrand after Bradley Wiggins in 2013. He finished in the peloton as Australia’s Caleb Ewan prevailed in a sprint finish at Piccadilly Circus after a 16-lap, 100 kilometres course. “I’m delighted. Finally I can smile and enjoy it,” Cummings said, in comments published on the BBC website. “It’s been a tough week. It was so close that it wasn’t done until I crossed the line. I’d to thank all my teammates for keeping me out of trouble and the British public for supporting every day like they have. It’s been a great week.” Australia’s Rohan Dennis came second overall, 26 seconds off the pace, with Dutchman Tom Dumoulin third. Victory continues a fine year for Cummings, who claimed stage victories in the Tirre**-Adriatico, the Tour of the Basque Country, the Criterium du Dauphine and the Tour de France. He assumed the overall lead with an eight-place finish on stage six and preserved his advantage on the last stage despite having lost time the day before. Dutch rider Jasper Bovenhuis won the sprint classification, Belgian Xandro Meurisse was the best climber and Dylan Groenewegen of the Netherlands won the points classification. Team Sky won the prize for best team. أكثر...
