Track Cycling at the Summer Olympic Games 2020


Recommended Posts

Looking from a career perspective, Wild badly, badly deserved an Olympic medal, to be fair. This move was a bit shady though, even though all she really did was following the moves in front of her. Good thing Kajihara stayed on silver, a medal was slightly expected here but the pressure at home must have been big :d

Wild celebrating her DSQ ? Dutch are kinda odd sometime :d

DSQ would be controversial given that GBR did the same in Madison and got away with a yellow card...

It's nice that :JPN got their medal in cycling but this was kinda boring apart from the crashes. From what I have seen from track cycling at these Games, the events were sadly forgettable for me apart from that amazing men's team pursuit final. Road cycling wins this round, it was far more entertaning.

Huge crash....

This crash and fact that such fighter like :POL Pikulik couldnt continue the competition (problems with breathing) perfectly sums up our terrible, just 5 medals, (besides athletics) Olympics. Im worried that in Paris we wont be better in other than athletics sports...

You mean he didn't need to knock anyone over or have the race restarted because he wasn't going to win (still bitter!)

Someone in the back really should have deliberately caused a crash (by accident, obviously) given how obviously gold was gone with a lap and a half left.

I guess Jennifer Valente is the most hated person in China right now?

I may be naive, but I'm holding on to a bit of hope that people (other than federation officials or something) aren't so pathetic? :(

yeah controversial...

 

but if it was the other way with Wild crashing the Japanes would be DSQ immediately.

 

I am done with that double meter in all sports.

    • China's medal prospects   Short Track Speed Skating: This is the event with the deepest emotional ties to China's winter sports, as China's first Olympic gold medal in winter sports came from this discipline. Unsurprisingly, people have high expectations for it in this Winter Olympics. Medal prospects are mainly focused on men's individual events and the two relay events. However, considering the strong strength of William Dandjinou, I think the probability of winning gold in men's individual events is very low. Instead, the main gold medal hopes lie in the men's relay and mixed relay. Medals: 1-3. My guess: 1 gold; Optimistic: 2 golds   Freestyle Skiing: The performance of this event is crucial to China's success in this Winter Olympics. Eileen Gu remains our super star and is highly competitive in slopestyle and halfpipe. As for the big air, if I remember correctly, she hasn't competed in this event since the Beijing Winter Olympics, so it's hard for me to make a clear judgment on her performance in this individual event. China has the potential to compete for medals or even gold in all three medal events of freestyle skiing aerials. However, given the unpredictability of aerials, the results could be either disastrous or brilliant. Xu Mengtao will compete in her fifth Winter Olympics. Medals: 3-6. My guess: 3 golds; Optimistic: 4 golds   Speed Skating: Similar to the situation in Beijing, the medal hopes still lie with Gao Tingyu and Ning Zhongyan. However, Stolz has shown extremely strong dominance during the Milan Olympic cycle, so I don't think there will be any gold medals in this event. Gao Tingyu has performed excellently in the previous two Winter Olympics, and I still believe he can win a medal in the 500m. Ning Zhongyan also has the potential to win medals in the 1000m and 1500m. Medals: 1-3. My guess: 0 gold; Optimistic: 0 gold   Snowboard: Like in Beijing, Su Yiming remains the star of China's snowboarding. He has maintained a very good competitive form this season, with great chances especially in the big air event, where he will aim to defend his title. He also has the potential to win a medal in slopestyle. Medals: 1-2. My guess: 1 gold; Optimistic: 1 gold   Skeleton: Men's events and mixed team events are opportunities to compete for medals, with Yin Zheng being the key athlete for medal contention. Medals: 1-2. My guess: 0 gold; Optimistic: 1 gold   Curling: China will send both men's and women's teams to this event. Both teams have the ability to compete with high-level strong teams. I predict that either the men's or women's team will reach the top four. Medals: 0-1. My guess: 0 golds; Optimistic: 0 golds   Ski Jumping: This is still a less developed event for China, but Zeng Ping has made significant progress this season, entering the top 8 in many high-level competitions. There is a chance to compete for a medal, but it will be very difficult to achieve. If it really happens, I think it will be quite incredible. Medals: 0-1   I think other events have no chance of winning medals.   summary, Optimistic: 8 golds and 17 medals;  My guess: 5 golds and 14 medals;  Worst-case scenario: 3 golds and 11 medals.
    • we're in Italy! calm down and relax...   everything necessary will appear when it will appear, possibly at least a few hours before the action starts (but don't get mad if it's a few days after the Games are underway)   pure Italian style 
    • So tomorrow, the girls will made a protest prior to the mass start for the not-inclusion of Women Nordic Combined into the Olympics   I mean, yeah IOC and FIS have a point that the sport has so few medalled nations in the last decades, but in other hands they still keep in the olympics sports like Equestrian, diving or table tennis where even less nations medal for almost centuries now 
    • I was just doing my prediction on the other thread, and then I calculated... I had 21 Gold, 8 Silver, 15 Bronze.  Probably a little too hopeful.   Oops!  (And I didn't even think I was being too optimistic as I was filling it out...guess so...)
    • This should be included in the Olympics soon. Every single event that’s added to the program is a positive thing.
    • Ehm...   and it is here     https://www.iihf.com/en/news/71841/innsbruck_to_host_first_stop_of_the_ultimate_hocke
