Felicity Wilson-Haffenden wins Australian TT championship
Felicity Wilson-Haffenden (Lidl-Trek) has won the women’s elite individual time trial at the 2026 Australian National Championships, holding off defending champion Brodie Chapman (UAE-Team ADQ) by three seconds.
On an undulating 29.3 km course around Perth’s Bold Park, Wilson-Haffenden led throughout, carrying a 22 second advantage at the intermediate split before her former teammate Chapman closed in over the remainder of the race – but not enough to take the win. Josie Talbot (Jayco-Alula) rounded out the podium.
The result marks the 20-year-old’s first win since turning pro in 2024 – a deal with Lidl-Trek that was confirmed off her impressive 2023 season, which saw her win the junior women’s ITT at the Glasgow Worlds, as well as a sweep of podiums at the junior national and continental championships.
