Track racing, Rio 2016 **spoilers**

I'll say that again. Vogel beat Meares.

Aus weren't in the medals for the team sprint at the Worlds this year, so probably true to form. Russia, China and Germany look like the favourites. China just set an OR against Russia in the last heat.

Men's sprint qualifying next... Come on, Jase!

Not thinking about form, I just like anyone beating Meares.

The trampoline fans are complaining about the repeats of last night's cycling instead of, I assume, more coverage of their favoured sport.

Couldn't get any faster was a correct analysis

Clare "And I said to 'xxx', and they said to me, and I'm now telling you" Balding is really pissing me off

Once all these fellas have set their times do they do fastest v slowest? Is it then that event where they play slowest rider wins until the last lap?

F*ck me, just show the event!!!

 

[smutchin]

Yeah, top 18 qualifiers go into the match sprints.

Watch it online, if you want to watch it on a big screen, rig the computer to the telly.

Does the air temperature really make a difference to the speed?

Overcoming air resistance is 90% of effort, apparently, so I'd think it makes a huge difference.
