Day 3 of the Track Cycling World Cup in Glasgow saw three events completed with Laura Trott winning Gold in the Women’s Omnium while Germany took the days honours with wins in the Men’s Sprint and Women’s Keirin
DAY 1 REPORT & RESULTS | DAY 2 REPORT & RESULTS
Women’s OmniumÂ
Olympic and World Omnium champion Laura Trott won the Women’s Omnium title in dramatic style, beating rival Ashlee Ankudinoff from Australia into silver in the final heat of the sixth event, the 500m Time Trial. Going into the final event Ankudinoff was two points ahead of Trott with Trott needing to beat her rival by two places to secure gold.
An aggressive ride in which Trott gave everything she had saw her deliver once again, finishing with the second fastest time behind Russian Tamara Balabolina which was enough to secure gold and bring the Sir Chris Hoy Velodrome crowd to their feet. Victory in the 500m Time Trial meant Balabolina did enough to take home bronze for Russia.
“I can’t believe it,” Trott told BBC Sport. “I’m so tired. I don’t even know what I’m doing here! It’s so hard coming back from the Olympics and having to get your head around racing again. I’m not fit – I’m not going to lie. I just came here for the home crowd and the support they gave us at the Olympics – you just want to give them something back.
Men’s Sprint
An all German final saw Friday night’s Team Sprint gold medallists Robert Foerstemann and Stefan Boetticher go head to head for gold in the Men’s Sprint final. It was Boetticher who got the better of his countryman, winning the first match and taking the second with a stunning sprint in the final 200m that saw him take gold in emphatic style and bring the UCI Track Cycling World Cup to a fitting end. The bronze medal match was contested by Spain’s Juan Gascon Peralta and Denis Dmitriev of the Rusvelo team who needed only two matches to beat his rival and claim the bronze.
Great Britain’s representation came in the form of Olympic Team Sprint gold medallist Philip Hindes who finished 12th in the competition. Olympic champion Jason Kenny did not feature in the Sprint event after a heavy fall in the Keirin final on Saturday night.
Women’s Keirin
Germany’s in form Kristina Vogel picked up her second gold medal of the week, adding Keirin gold to the Sprint she won on Saturday night. Silver went to Ekaterina Gnidenko, racing for the Petroholding Leningrad team, and bronze went to Hong Kong’s Wai Sze Lee.
Great Britain’s Becky James qualified for the final and was unlucky not to finish on the podium after leading out after the exit of the derny. Great Britain’s Jess Varnish missed out on the final after finishing 6th in her second round heat. After racing in the Team Sprint, Sprint and 500m TT fatigue was evident in Varnish and she finished 9th overall.
