World-class track cycling returned to Lee Valley VeloPark in London with a thrilling evening of racing at Revolution Series Round 5 – and double Olympic champion Laura Trott continued her love affair with the venue while Francois Pervis at last got to show who’s best in Men’s sprinting.
The velodrome was packed and incredibly noisy for the first of three sessions of racing at the iconic ex-Olympic velodrome, part of the new multi-discipline cycling facility at Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park.
A host of Team GB Olympic champions returned for the first time since the London Olympic and Paralympic Games in 2012 – Ed Clancy, Steven Burke, Philip Hindes, Jason Kenny, Dani King and Trott.
Trott won an incredible three out of three in the women’s omnium while the Rest of the World team claimed victory from a GB team in a special ‘Nations Cup’ Madison.
Along with fellow Wiggle Honda riders King and Elinor Barker, Trott brought a huge roar from the crowd whenever she was on track – and particularly when clinching her hat-trick of wins. Trott won the Flying Lap, the Points Race and the Elimination Race in a truly dominant display, helped all the way by her Wiggle Honda team-mates.
The night ended in drama as King and Scottish rider Katie Archibald crashed heavily as the Elimination Race neared its conclusion, leaving Trott alone on the track to claim yet another victory.
French sprinter Francois Pervis won the UCI Keirin – continuing his exceptional form from the Track World Championships in Cali where he claimed three gold medals.
Meanwhile, the continental riders proved too strong for their GB rivals in the Madison which was fought over two races – an Elimination Race and 50km Madison. German Leif Lampater, who will ride for Elite Championship leaders Rudy Project RT on Saturday, claimed a fantastic photo-finish win in the Team Elimination race.
Spanish Madison world champions Albert Torres and David Muntaner also rode strongly and they had too much for the likes of Ed Clancy and Andy Tennant on the GB team. Clancy and Tennant will both be back to ride in the Elite Championship on Saturday. Clancy, riding for second-placed Rapha Condor JLT, will be looking to overhaul Rudy Project’s lead.
Saturday’s afternoon session begins at 1pm and finishes at 4pm. The evening session will see the conclusion of the Elite Championship, HOY Future Stars and women’s omnium, from 7pm until around 10.15pm.
Sir Chris Hoy will be in attendance to watch the end of the HOY Future Stars while the destiny of the Elite Championship will be decided with Rudy Project RT, Rapha Condor JLT and Team Sky all in the mix.
Don’t forget you can watch both sessions live on YouTube on Saturday! Subscribe to the FACE Partnership YouTube channel here
Limited tickets remain for the afternoon session on Saturday
