Close the velodrome and just give us the medals.

Another new Olympic record from Team GB!

Of course the match sprints are another thing entirely and I know Kenny has what it takes but I have no idea about Callum Skinner.

Bad coverage there. They kept switching before the time gap was shown.

Craig1981 · 12 Aug 2016 at 21:23

I'm watching it on the stream. Its more realiable than the TV.

marc2003 · 12 Aug 2016 at 21:25

Smashed it. New WR.

Jokester · 12 Aug 2016 at 21:26

Boooooom!

Bloody hell

WORLD RECORD!!!!

The Aussies don't look like they have the form to beat that.

Superb performance and you have to wonder where the world record will be after the final.

No team in the women's sprint for us.

Do you know why that is?

Stepped away from the coverage for a mo

Well Pendleton retired, Jess Varnish got dropped and I can only assume we didn't have anyone else good enough. You don't get on the team unless you have realistic chance of winning. We're a harsh lot.

edit: a more accurate answer given on the TV just now... we didn't qualify.

Love watching this.

Craig1981 · 12 Aug 2016 at 21:45

Yeah, its good stuff. I'd be terrified on those bikes though. Especially going round corners, I'd fall for sure.

shipinabottle · 12 Aug 2016 at 21:45

I didn't enjoy that at all with Kenny haha. Everyone else was so calm but I was nervous as hell

Jokester · 12 Aug 2016 at 21:47

Get in.

Some power that.

The Chinese coach doesn't look very Chinese.
