In 2022, Grace Brown surprised herself with the silver medal in the UCI World Championships women's time trial, finishing just 13 seconds behind the Netherlands' Ellen van Dijk. She came into the 2023 title race in Stirling, Scotland, with the belief she could grab the rainbow jersey. However she came six seconds short against Chloé Dygert.
"I think I was happy with silver last year when it was my first time on the podium, but since last year I've been dreaming of putting on the rainbow jersey and believing that it's possible," she told Cyclingnews.
"I didn't quite execute my pacing plan today. I was planning to build a little more in the end, and I went harder in the start. If I hadn't, maybe I could have found those six seconds. I gave it everything I could."
"Chloe was amazing today and deserves to win that, especially after all the tough things she's been through; it's inspirational," Brown said.
