Cycling: World Track Championships

2015

19/02/2015

Duration: 1 hour

First broadcast: on BBC Two ScotlandLatest broadcast: on BBC Two HD

Jonathan Edwards presents live coverage of the 2015 Track Cycling World Championships from France's new national velodrome in south-west Paris. Great Britain have dominated the track cycling events at the last two Olympics but came away from the 2014 World Championships with a disappointing haul of five medals. With the 2016 Rio Olympics now firmly in sight, they will have higher expectations this year.

The British quartet will certainly be favourites in one of the day's events, the women's team pursuit, where they are defending champions, Olympic gold medallists and world record holders. The other event in the show is the men's keirin, an exciting race where riders follow a motorbike around the velodrome before battling it out in a sprint finish. Show less
