3 ETHAN VERNON
Tour de l’Avenir stage winner
A rapid rise into the team pursuit squad for Tokyo has been matched by Vernon’s road racing ascent. While the Olympics didn’t exactly go to plan, his standout result on the tarmac was his stage win at the Tour de l’Avenir, which helped him secure a contract with DeceuninckQuick Step for 2022. While we’re sure he’d have wanted more from the Track Worlds than a bronze in the team pursuit, he did more than enough to show he belongs in the sport’s elite.
2 LEO HAYTER
U23 time trial national champion
Hayter’s success in the latter half of 2021 is all the more remarkable considering he took a break from riding in the middle of year as he became disillusioned with the sport. With a heavy block of training in the legs and a rediscovered joy for riding, he won the U23 Liège-Bastogne-Liège and a stage of the Tour de Bretagne then capped it off with victory at the U23 National Championship TT. He’s planning on staying in the development team for 2022, so we won’t see (Leo) Hayter versus (Ethan) Hayter until 2023 at least.
