New World Records are being written every day at Tokyo 2020. Today, China Women’s cycling team sprint team has rewritten the Olympics and world record at the Cycling Track at Tokyo2020
The Chinese team have broken the World and Olympics record in the women’s team sprint with a rapid time of 31.804.
The WR (32.034) was actually slower than the OR (31.928), because the cycling governing body UCI never ratified the Rio 2016 Olympic record of China as a world record.
China and Germany will contest for gold and silver; ROC and Netherlands for bronze.
