KEY POINTS:
New Zealand triathlete Samantha Warriner ran away with the 11th round of the women's Triathlon World Cup series in Hungary yesterday.
Warriner, who finished second in the previous round in England a fortnight ago, was followed home by Australian Emma Moffat and fellow New Zealander Debbie Tanner.
In the men's race, Kris Gemmell finished second after borrowing a bike from Warriner. Gemmell arrived for the event in Tiszaujvaros just hours before the event and found his race bike missing. The race was won by world No 1 Javier Gomez of Spain.
Warriner, ranked No 3 in the world, proved too strong for the field the moment they hit the pavement. She powered away for her second World Cup title of the year.
"I went from the word go on the run and within a few hundred metres was running on my own and knew I wasn't going to be beaten," Warriner said.
She had to work hard for her victory though with a messy transition from swim to bike.
For Gemmell, it was his third World Cup podium of the year as he finished eight seconds down on Gomez and comfortably in front of Frederic Belaubre, of France. New Zealand now leads the race for podium finishes in the 2007 World Cup, with 14 (8 women, 6 men), two ahead of Australia.
