British rider Leo Hayter, the younger brother of elite rider Ethan Hayter, was 24.16 seconds off the pace for the bronze medal on Monday.
On Sunday, Foss beat a strong field to win the elite time trial, the biggest win of his career.

The mixed relay time trial is set for Wednesday. The championships conclude on the weekend with the women's road race on Saturday and the men's on Sunday.
