A video has captured the excruciating moment a cyclist punches the air as he approaches the finish line during a race – only to be overtaken by another cyclist.
The footage, which was taken during the Via Roma Twilight Criterium support race, shows cyclist Jamie Wilkins raise his arm in victory after a frantic race through the streets of Cirencester.
However he fails to notice fellow racer Jamie Penton powering towards the line.
It’s only as Mr Wilkins crosses the line that he realises he has actually finished second.
