Track Cycling at the Summer Olympic Games 2016

O.K. So i found out exactly what happened in the keirin final.

It proved impossible to disqualify anybody for overtaking the derny  because the UCI had not installed a camera on the line where the derny pulls off,

The only camera angle were head on or slightly at an angle to the line and neither could not be used to determine exactly who had broken the rules.

Big mess by the UCI

Yeah, good work by the organizers and of course it was completely obvious that Kenny overtook the Derny first. I am absolutely not surprised that neither Kenny nor Cavendish got disqualified. I think british riders would have to kill someone on track to get disqualied, it was the same joke in mens team sprint 4 years ago.

Honestly from the angles I saw I couldn't tell which of Kenny or Awang should have been disqualified.

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