After a fast transition Sam found himself in the lead group and often at the head of a front pack of five men, forcing the pace relentlessly through the bike leg. Heading into transition with a small gap on the first chase group, Sam set off for a blistering run.
In the end in came down to the final 200 metres, when Dickinson produced one final finishing kick to force his way clear of Brownlee and Germany’s Henry Graf.
Dickinson really laid it all on the line to come home in front of Graf, with Brownlee just three seconds back in third. A fantastic performance from the BMC athlete to claim the top step in Poland.
