And that asshole move will cost Mexico one Olympic quota.

There have been videos? I'd love to see them!

 

Much like the early keirin rounds in World Cups that are never shown, often there's some DNF's and so on there, but there's no video so nobody really knows whether it was a mistake, a dumb move or an outright idiotic move.

Points races are such a huge mess. Inexplicable UCI still doesn't have that in order in terms of easy graphics (and decent TV directing).

Strong is clearly protesting against NZ still having Union Jack.

The one I saw didn't have the best angle to clearly show who was at fault, but UCI decided to warn her, so she must have done something not so clean in terms of racing.

Possible, although I've seen plenty of REL's and DQ's for things that were not necessarily an idiotic move (such as Mark Cavendish in Rio, where he utterly destroyed a South Korean rider) as much as a not very smart mistake (as so often happens in the keirin). There is quite the difference between them.

Hmm, not the first dangerous (voluntary ?) move from Mitchell

If France wins the place in omnium, is that adding a quota or is it 4 maximum in endurance?

Ugh, Tissot's website is once again completely broken down.
