Elia Viviani sprinted to a record third EuroEyes Cyclassics Hamburg victory in a row, becoming the first rider in history to do so.

The new European champion received yet another perfect lead out from the Dane Michael Mørkøv, a service Viviani will relinquish when he transfers to Cofidis at the end of the season.

Jonny was Cycling Weekly's Weekend Editor until 2022.

I like writing offbeat features and eating too much bread when working out on the road at bike races.

Before joining Cycling Weekly I worked at The Tab and I've also written for Vice, Time Out, and worked freelance for The Telegraph (I know, but I needed the money at the time so let me live).

I also worked for ITV Cycling between 2011-2018 on their Tour de France and Vuelta a España coverage. Sometimes I'd be helping the producers make the programme and other times I'd be getting the lunches. Just in case you were wondering - Phil Liggett and Paul Sherwen had the same ham sandwich every day, it was great.
