Pidcock Eyes Elite-Level Success
Tom Pidcock is already focusing on success in the elite ranks as he racked up another under-23 level win at the weekend.

Pidcock took the U23 World Cup lead in Tabor, Czech Republic, with a win, but it’s the next level of racing he has an eye on.

“The World Cup is not one of the biggest aims, because the Worlds are the most important and I am focusing more on the Superprestige because there’s big prize money,” he said. “But it’s nice and it shows consistency to win championships and do well in the World Cup.”

Pidcock was fourth in the Superprestige last weekend.
