Agree with Shovel that you went to the front too soon. A lap or a lap and a half later you could have drilled it, kept the pace high for your sprinter, force others to chase, and let your sprinter get a leadout from whoever chased you.

As it was, you were shot before the critical time came.

You need to work on your cornering. You seem to loose significant ground and let gaps develop out of corners.

Also, that turn around a cement pole does not seem like a very good idea. Someone is going to clip that pole with a catastrophic result. Why don't thedefine the turn with cones some distance out from the pole?
