Track Cycling at the Summer Olympic Games 2016

The good thing is that track cycling is over now and Kenny will be gone in 2020, so fair athletes might have a chance then ... on the other hand GB will probably find someone else to dominate, i guess it will be some complete no-name who comes out of nowhere.

Another track medal for a brit that should have been dq'd. But when it's time to bitch about Russia they're the first to get on their high horse.

yeah - and now some UK user is amazed that i`m pissed off - but if it`d be about a dsq for some Russian or Pole all of them, not mentioning BBC, would say "oh in case of a Britt it wasn`t that clear, rules are to interprete. Pole? Oh...no..that`s sth different, dsq clearly".

 

In fact..it looked like this on BBC in case of German but they couldn`t dsq him after GB cheat at first time

At least this time it didn't end with someone in the hospital. Thank goodness for small favors and all that.

Just found the rules: 

3.2.140 In the case when one or more riders pass the back wheel of the pacer before he leaves the track, the race will be stopped and rerun without the rider(s) at fault, which will be disqualified.

I guess the discussion is what they mean by passing the back wheel, but when stopping the race, the riders should have been disqualified.

And now I read a lot of comments about the pacer leaving the track too late.
