I see BBC maintains the anti-Russian bias. Shmeleva wins her third gold at these champs and BBC doesn't even mention it in one sentence!

Absolutely true, but don't forget Vigier. I think he will be on the sprint podium at the Olympics with Kenny and Botticher. Maybe the Dutch still have a chance for a medal in the teamsprint. 

GB will of course will win gold in both events ... but the dutch certainly have a chance for silver in team sprint, the same is true for Germany, New Zealand, Australia, Russia, France. I think it will be GB-Netherlands-Germany. GB always wins gold, the Netherlands are currently ahead and Germany has a very new team with a guy born in 1999 in first position so they will surely get better.

In the individual event it will be a massacre with Kenny, Carlin, 2 dutch guys, Bötticher, Vigier and Glaetzer. For me this is the most competitive event in track cycling.

Apart from all that, the Dutch simply don't have/get the financial means to improve their equipment a lot, meaning they are already fighting at a major disadvantage against especially the Brits and their hypermodern rockets in the Olympics.
