Grace Brown (FDJ-Suez) won the elite women's time trial title at the Federation University Australian Road National Championships on Thursday, defending the title she also won in 2023, 2022 and 2019.
Brown set a time of 40:51.30, with Brodie Chapman (Lidl-Trek) just seven seconds slower to take the silver medal and move up a step on the podium from last year despite some gear issues while out on course. Georgie Howe (Liv-AlUla-Jayco) came third in the 28.6km event in Ballarat.
