Emma Finucane became the first British woman since Mary Rand in 1964 to win three Olympic medals at the same Games as she took bronze in the individual sprint on Sunday.
The 21-year-old world sprint champion, who won team sprint gold and keirin bronze earlier in the week, began the day hoping for her second gold medal of these Games. But she was well beaten by the New Zealander Ellesse Andrews in their best-of-three semi final.
Finucane beat Hetty van de Wouw 2-0 in their bronze medal match and looked overcome with emotion afterwards, celebrating with her sprint team-mate Katy Marchant in the crowd.
Jack Carlin crashed out of the men’s keirin final in what turned into a painful competition for Team GB. Carlin initially struggled to get up after the high speed incident on the final bend of the race but eventually walked off the track without need of the waiting stretcher.
A horrible crash involving Jack Carlin in the men’s keirin final 😫Hope everyone is OK 🙏#Olympics #Paris2024 pic.twitter.com/05gxrewvRf
The Scot had been caught at the back of the group and was fighting to make up ground when Japanese rider Shinji Nakano and Malaysia’s Muhammad Sahrom tangled in front of him and left him with nowhere to go but down.
Earlier Carlin’s team-mate Hamish Turnbull crashed heavily in his semi-final after trying to avoid an incident involving Germany’s Luca Spiegel. After the crash, Turnbull did not take part in the race to determine the seventh to 12th places.
Neah Evans could only manage 15th in the women’s omnium, having crashed in the opening scratch race, as American Jennifer Valente took gold.
Gold: Katy Marchant, Sophie Capewell and Emma Finucane (women’s team sprint)
Silver: Ed Lowe, Hamish Turnbull and Jack Carlin (men’s team sprint), Ethan Hayter, Daniel Bingham, Charlie Tanfield and Ethan Vernon (men’s team pursuit), Elinor Barker and Neah Evans (women’s Madison)
Bronze: Elinor Barker, Josie Knight, Anna Morris and Jessica Roberts (women’s team pursuit), Emma Finucane (women’s keirin), Jack Carlin (men’s sprint), Emma Finucane (women’s sprint).
You can take a look at all of Great Britain’s medals from these Games with our dedicated Team GB medal-winners page.
Neah Evans wins the final sprint but she was miles out of contention. Wollaston is second.
But it is all about Jennifer Valente who takes the gold medal and the American wins back-to-back Olympic golds in the women’s omnium. An emphatic display from the American. Poland’s Daria Pikulik wins silver and New Zealand’s Ally Wollaston takes the bronze medal. The big loser was Australia’s Georgia Baker, who was second going into the final event but ended up finishing fifth.
Ally Wollaston has gained a lap to move into the podium positions.
Kopecky, Daria Pikulik and Maike van der Duin have attacked and they now gain a lap.
The top three as it stands; Valente, Pikulik and Wollaston.
Japan’s Yumi Kajihara gains a lap but she is well down in the overall standings. Wollaston takes the latest sprint, with just two remaining.
The Neah Evans group gains a lap and 20 points. Our current leader Valente has also gained a lap to strengthen her position in the overall lead. Dideriksen was also with Valente to take a lap.
Valente now has a 36-point lead over Georgia Baker.
Gillespie and Stenberg have caught the group and gain 20 points. That moves Gillespie into fourth and Stenberg into the bronze medal position. Terrific move from the duo. Neah Evans is then part of a four-woman attack.
Lara Gillespie is in seventh overall and attacks for the second time in this race. She is joined by Norway’s Anita Stenberg.
Valente still leads the way in the overall standings by 16 points.
The French crowd are delighted to see Valentine Fortin attack and no-one has followed. She takes maximum points and also laps the field to take 20 points. She is not in contention for a medal but still a good move to please her home crowd.
Switzerland’s Aline Seitz attacks and she actually nearly collided with Neah Evans as she came through. She is not out in front for long. Jennifer Valente has been the strongest rider so far and is allowed to take the first sprint.
Slightly later than billed, it is time for the final race in the velodrome at the 2024 Paris Olympics; the points race. Realistically Neah Evans is out of medal contention for GB. The reigning Olympic champion Jennifer Valente looks good to win back-to-back golds in this event.
80 laps left around this velodrome.
“Team GB spokesperson says Jack Carlin “generally ok, just battered and bruised”. He will hopefully come and speak to us after the omnium points race.”
“Emma Finucane says she has “cried a lot and learned a lot” this week, about how to handle pressure and emotion. Delighted with her week overall. She said she was still sleeping with her medals under her pillow and checking they were still there in the morning. Asked whether she would try to win three golds in Los Angeles, she laughed. “I’m not even thinking about that.”
“I feel on top of the world! This whole week has been a rollercoaster for me, so many high and so many lows. That bronze medal felt like a gold medal to me.
“I wanted to be in the gold final, but I had nothing left to give. To have my family here, the national lottery I couldn’t be here without them, British cycling, the physios and doctors it is such a wider team and not just me – I wanted to do it for them.
“To come away with three medals is more than what I could have dreamed of. I am going to celebrate tonight!”
On being the first female British athlete to win three medals at an Olympics in 60 years:
“You don’t think about it in the moment and for me it is about inspiring young kids to get on the track and to give it a go. I am living my teenage dream and I love every second of it, but this is my job and I wouldn’t change it for the world.
“I want to keep doing what I do and keep making Britain proud. It has been such a cool experience and I cannot believe it.”
On the LA Games:
“The sky is the limit. I didn’t know I was capable of this coming here. Getting a bronze and two golds is more than a dream come true.”
There has been a short delay before the medal ceremony. Malaysia’s Muhammad Sahrom has been relegated from fourth to sixth. He actually came across the line sliding across the track after the crash.
After that delay the medal ceremony for the men’s keirin will now take place. We still have one more race in the shape of the final event of the women’s omnium.
The track cycling action comes to an end with the final event of the women’s omnium; the points race.
Covering 20km (80 laps) for women, there is a sprint every ten laps, with five, three, two and one points available for the first four riders over the line. The final sprint sees ten, six, four and two points available. Like the tempo race, riders can gain 20 points for taking a lap, but will lose 20 if they themselves are lapped.
USA’s Jennifer Valente leads on 118 points, with Australia’s Georgia Baker second on 108 points and Canada’s Maggie Coles-Lyster third on 96 points.
He is now sat up after that heavy crash but is still receiving treatment. Looking back at the replays Glaetzer was right at the back before the crash and then with three riders going down he came through to take the bronze medal.
“Jack Carlin stayed down a long time there. He tried to sit up but then lay back down again. They brought out a stretcher and a neck brace but in the end he was able to walk away.”
It is Lavreysen vs Richardson as it has been throughout these Games and the Dutchman comes out on top again as he wins a hat-trick of gold medals in Paris. What a battle that was. Two medals for Australia as Glaetzer takes the bronze medal.
Behind half the field go down off the final bend, which includes Jack Carlin in a heavy crash. He got caught up as Shinji Nakano and Muhammad Sahrom collided.
Carlin is fourth in line, with Lavreysen second in line.
The derny bikes comes around, the gun goes off and we are six laps away from the gold medal being awarded.
Jack Carlin of Great Britain is going for gold, but he will have his work cut out beating the Netherlands’ Harrie Lavreysen and Australia’s Matthew Richardson.
Colombia’s Cristian David Ortega Fontalvo takes seventh, Sam Dakin of New Zealand eighth, Germany’s Luca Spiegal ninth and Matueusz Rudyk of Poland in tenth. Despite not starting that race, Hamish Turnbull will finish 11th in the men’s keirin.
There will be no Hamish Turnbull on the start line after his crash in the semi-finals. Germany’s Luca Spiegel, who also crashed, does mark the start.
Ellesse Andrews has had an exceptional Olympics and she wins her second gold of these Games. She won the keirin and comfortably beats Lea Friedrich in the second race to win gold. That is New Zealand’s first individual track cycling sprint gold.
She leads from the front and goes early. Hetty van de Wouw cannot get past and Emma Finucane wins the bronze medal, her third medal of the Games. She won both races with a fair amount of ease. That is Great Britain’s eighth medal in the velodrome, surpassing their total from Tokyo.
“Finucane becomes the first British woman since Mary Rand in Tokyo 1964 (long jump, pentathlon, 4x100m) to win three Olympic medals at the same Games.”
GB’s Emma Finucane beat the Netherlands’ Hetty van de Wouw in the first race so is just one win away from the bronze medal. Here they go…
The defending Olympic champion is looking in imperious form as she wins the elimination race. Australia’s Georgia Baker, who was second going into this event, finishes second.
Here are the standings after three of four events:
The Belgian rider is gone and the top three in the overall standings will fight it out for the win.
After there is no elimination on one sprint as the judges could not decide quickly enough who was out, Denmark’s Amelie, who was fourth going into this event, Dideriksen is out. The top three in the overall standings are all still in it and showing exactly why they are up there.
France’s Valentine Fortin gets caught out and is eliminated. She finishes 10th in this race.
Ireland’s Lara Gillespie, who had a good tempo race, is next out.
The New Zealander was fifth overall going into the elimination race but she does not make the top ten.
She is gone as she is eliminated from the race. Disaster for her and her miserable omnium continues. No chance of a medal now. There was chaos as the organisers made a meal of who had been eliminated.
“Fair to say Neah Evans is having a bit a disastrous omnium. Disqualified from the elimination race for overtaking on the Cote d’Azur. There were whispers this week that Elinor Barker, who looked very dynamic in the Madison that she did with Evans the other night (when they took silver), might be keen to ride the omnium. But it was confirmed this morning that Neah Evans would represent Team GB.”
Sensibly, after nearly being eliminated straight away, Evans has moved to the front. Switzerland’s Aline Seitz is the fourth rider out.
She is very, very lucky as she escapes elimination. Germany’s Franziska Brausse is out first. Belgium’s Lotte Kopecky was another big name who nearly was eliminated.
We are under way.
Every second lap, the last rider to cross the finish line is eliminated until there are two remaining, and they sprint it out.
The defending champion Jennifer Valente of the USA leads by eight points ahead of Australia’s Georgia Baker after two events. GB’s Neah Evans is down in 20th.
We have news from the second semi-final. Japan’s Kaiya Ota has been relegated so Malaysia’s Muhammad Sahrom will take his place in the final.
That was impressive from the New Zealander as she holds off Friedrich. Andrews already has two medals to her name at these Games and is guaranteed a third here, but what colour will it be?
She beats van de Wouw by 0.237 seconds to win the first race. A victory in the second race and Finucane will claim her third medal of these Games.
The first race in the gold medal contest between Lea Friedrich and Ellesse Andrews is coming up.
Emma Finucane is up first in the bronze medal race against the Netherlands’ Hetty van de Wouw. It is the same set-up as the semi-finals with a best of three to decide who wins bronze.
Australia’s Matthew Richardson takes the second semi-final ahead of the Netherlands’ Harrie Lavreysen. Japan’s Kaiya Ota takes third but Hamish Turnbull has gone down around the final bend as he tried to avoid Germany’s Luca Spiegel, who had already gone down. Turnbull did not look like he was going through.
Fortunately both riders are back up but Turnbull looks like he is in a fair bit of pain as he is helped away.
“Unfortunate for Hamish Turnbull who is now limping off track with his arm draped around GB’s chief medical officer Nigel Jones, a huge rip in the back of his skinsuit. So just one Brit in the keirin final, but Carlin is looking really impressive today. Won his quarter-final and his semi-final in fine fashion.”
Semi-final two coming up:
Matthew Richardson (Australia), Hamish Turnbull (Great Britain), Luca Spiegel (Germany), Kaiya Ota (Japan), Muhammad Sahrom (Malaysia), Harrie Lavreysen (Netherlands).
That is a very impressive display from Jack Carlin. He was on the wheel of Sam Dakin for a while and then, with a lap to go, he went to the front and eased to victory by quite some distance. Matthew Glaetzer came over in second and Shinji Nakano is the third and last man into the final.
No repechages so no rescue if you mess it up. Here is the line-up for the first semi-final, with GB’s Jack Carlin in there.
Matthew Glaetzer (Australia), Cristian David Ortega Fontalvo (Colombia), Jack Carlin (Great Britain), Shinji Nakano (Japan), Sam Dakin (New Zealand), Mateusz Rudyk (Poland).
The top three in each semi-final go through to the final.
She times her run to the line to perfection to take fifth in the women’s sprint. Emma Hinze is sixth, Colombia’s Martha Bayona Pineda seventh and defending champion Kelsey Mitchell eighth.
Great Britain will have two riders in the top five of the women’s sprint.
Having been knocked out in the quarter-finals, GB’s Sophie Capewell is going in the 5th-8th sprint. She goes up against Canada’s Kelsey Mitchell (who won gold in this event in Tokyo), Germany’s Emma Hinze and Colombia’s Martha Bayona Pineda.
The final of the women’s sprint will be between Ellesse Andrews and Lea Friedrich. Emma Finucane will take on Hetty van de Wouw in the bronze medal race.
“It might not be for gold but that didn’t stop Jack Carlin and Jeffrey Hoogland from going at it the other night. Finucane will have one less sprint in her legs as well.”
Lea Friedrich (Germany) and Hetty van de Wouw (Netherlands) have a decider to see who will join Ellesse Andrews (New Zealand) in the final.
GB’s Emma Finucane awaits the loser in the bronze medal race. Whoever that is will have to complete another race than Finucane has, so could that be an advantage for the British rider?
The scratch race comes to a close and the USA’s Jennifer Valente strengthens her position in the women’s omnium. Only five riders claimed points during the race, including Ireland’s Lara Gillespie who took a lap on the field.
After two of the four events, here are the standings:
GB’s Neah Evans is down in 20th on just seven points.
Valente, Pikulik and Baker still have not made it to the main group and will not take a lap but have been mopping up sprint points.
Neah Evans, now in a fluorescent helmet, has attacked but she is on her own.
Valente, Pikulik and Baker have been hoovering up some sprint points and are just waiting to catch the field so that they can continue to take sprint points for the time being before gaining that lap.
Valente attacks with Pikulik of Poland and Baker of Australia on her wheel. How have they allowed the defending champion to do this?
She mops up a few sprint points and then gains a lap on the field, so is given 20 points.
Ireland’s Lara Gillespie attacks just one lap before the first sprint. No-one responds immediately as they all look at each other. Gillespie is going to pick up some points here and could lap the field.
Tempo race explained
It is contested over 30 laps (7.5km). From the fifth lap onwards, one point is awarded to the rider who crosses the finish line first every lap. (Riders can gain a lap, earning 20 points, but if they are lapped by the bunch, they will lose 20).
The defending Olympic champion Jennifer Valente (USA) is in the lead after the scratch race. GB’s Neah Evans had a disastrous start after a late crash, meaning she is bottom.
Disappointment for Emma Finucane. She is beaten by Andrews in the second race and the New Zealander will take her place in the final. Both riders had a chance to win a second gold of these Game but it will be Andrews who now has the opportunity to do so. Finucane will have to settle for a battle for bronze.
“Worth bearing in mind that Finucane is still only 21. Twelve months ago no one had heard of her. She will have gained a huge amount of experience from these Games and she still has the chance of a bronze. That said, Finucane did come in as the world champion, and was tipped for three golds in Paris by none other than Laura Kenny. Perhaps the weight of expectation told, or perhaps Ellesse Andrews was simply unbeatable. The Kiwi could be about to do an unprecedented sprint double.”
Hetty van de Wouw was praying for that line to come to send her straight into the final but Lea Friedrich pips her to take it to a deciding race in around 25 minutes.
Now it is over to Emma Finucane. Can she repeat what Friedrich has just done and take it to a decider?
Time for race two. It is advantage Hetty van de Wouw (Netherlands) and Ellesse Andrews (New Zealand), so Lea Friedrich (Germany) and Emma Finucane (Great Britain) have work to do to take it to deciders.
As was expected Australia’s Matthew Richardson wins the final heat. New Zealand’s Sam Dakin is second with Poland’s Mateusz Rudyk and Germany’s Luca Spiegel also going through.
Two huge shocks as the Netherlands’ Jeffrey Hoogland and Colombia’s Kevin Santiago Quintero Chavarro are out.
“We’re not going to have a Carlin-Hoogland re-match in the keirin then. Bit of a shame.”
The tactics from Turnbull were excellent there. He picked the right wheel in the Netherlands’s Harrie Lavreysen, who wins heat two. Lavreysen has already won two golds at these Games and is arguably the favourite for this title. Turnbull, who had to come through the repechage yesterday, takes a second place comfortably. Colombia’s Ortega Fontalvo and Japan’s Shinji Nakano are also through.
Trinidad and Tobago’s Nicholas Paul and Nick Wammes of Canada are out. No more repechages.
Carlin is drawn at the front with Glaetzer on his wheel. Soon after the derny pulls over Glaetzer decides to come to the front but then Japan’s Kaiya Ota takes up the lead.
Carlin looked for a moment like he might be boxed in but comes over the top and takes victory to progress to the semi-finals. Glaetzer, Sahrom and Ota join him. Yakovlev of Israel and Canada’s Hedgcock are out.
Turnbull is up in the next heat.
The keirin explained
It is raced over six laps. The competitors start behind a derny bike, which the riders must remain behind for three laps. The derny starts at 30 km/h, gradually increasing to 50 km/h by its final circuit. The derny then leaves the track with three laps remaining and it is then up to the riders to sprint to the finish.
The first four riders in each of the quarter-finals progress to the semi-finals.
Jack Carlin goes in heat one with Australia’s Matthew Glaetzer.
Hamish Turnbull is in heat two alongside Netherlands’ Harrie Lavreysen.
Andrews has been drawn to be in front at the start of this first race in the second semi-final. The pace ramps up with just over a lap to go. Finucane tries to come around Andrews on the final bend but cannot quite get past the New Zealander. It will be interesting to see if that might be reviewed as Andrews did look like she came out a little on the final bend which pushed Finucane slightly wider but as it stands Andrews takes the first race. Advantage Andrews.
Germany’s Lea Friedrich leads it out but the Netherlands’ Hetty van de Wouw comes over the top and pips Friedrich at the line by 0.014 seconds to take the first race. Victory in the second race and the Dutch women will be into the final.
Time for Emma Finucane as she comes up against Ellesse Andrews of New Zealand.
Heat one- Germany’s Lea Friedrich vs Netherlands’ Hetty van de Wouw
Heat two- Great Britain’s Emma Finucane vs New Zealand’s Ellesse Andrews
Race one- 10:22 (BST)
Race two- 10:50
Decider (if needed)- 11:18
Disaster for Neah Evans! She was near the back trying to work her way forward but she is down around the final bend. The defending Olympic champion Jennifer Valente takes the maximum 40 points, with Canada’s Maggie Coles-Lyster second and Australia’s Georgia Baker third.
She tried to squeeze between Belgium’s Lotte Kopecky and Germany’s Franziska Brausse but the gap was not there and she hit the deck.
Evans did get back on her bike but she will not get checked for any possible concussion. She only takes one point, which is a disastrous start for her.
“What a shame for Neah Evans. She was boxed in for those final laps. Seemed to brush the back of Lotte Kopecky’s wheel on that final corner. It’s no fault of her’s, of course, but this event (the women’s omnium) is another where GB are ruing the absence of Katie Archibald. The mighty Scot, who broke her ankle in a freak accident in June, would have been going for three gold medals at these Games in the team pursuit, the Madison and the omnium. We’ll never know how Archibald or GB might have fared had she been fit and healthy.”
They hit the bell and the pace is electric. The defending champion Valente is up near the front.
The pace is ramping up, wih the whole field still together.
Inside the final 10 laps but no-one else has decided to take a risk and attack quite yet, but that will soon change.
This effort is surely going to be in vain and that may be an expensive mistake from Fortin. She swings up and gives it up. Perhaps a wise call to call it a day there to try and recover some energy.
Our first attack comes from France’s Valentine Fortin, much to the delight of the home crowd. No-one has gone with her yet but the pack will have to chase her down.
A steady start to this scratch race. A reminder all of the points are available at the finish so still a long way out to attempt an attack. I have become so used to see the GB riders in fluorescent helmets but with Neah Evans on her own and no need to spot a teammate in this event just a white helmet.
And we are officially under way.
All 22 riders have made their way onto the track for the scratch race. Katie Archibald was supposed to be competing for Team GB in this event but, due to a serious injury in the build-up to the Games, Neah Evans has stepped in. Evans won silver earlier in the week in the women’s Madison alongside Elinor Barker.
A bit of drama before the start as Italy’s Letizia Paternoster has crashed as they were making their way out onto the track. She has changed her bike so a few checks just to make sure the new bike is still legal. However we have another short delay as Paternoster goes back to her original bike after all of that!
A rolling start and then 7.5km to the finish in the first of four events in this omnium.
“Is it just me or is it ever slightly cooler in the velodrome today? Maybe after seven days in the sweatbox, my body has finally acclimatised.
“Big session coming up. GB currently on 10 cycling medals for these Games, which meets UK Sport’s funding target and isn’t far off previous cycles in terms of volume. But only two of those have been gold. That is massively down on previous cycles (8 golds in Beijing, 8 in London, 6 in Rio, 6 in Tokyo). And only one of those two golds has come in the velodrome, which is also unusual.
“British Cycling could really do with another to paint this as a ‘good’ Games. Emma Finucane probably their best bet. Massive semi-final coming up for her in the women’s sprint against New Zealand’s Ellesse Andrews, who won the keirin earlier this week. I would say the winner of that semi would be favourite for gold.”
The first race in the women’s omnium is the scratch race; a 30-lap (7.5km) race to the finish. First over the line takes the maximum 40 points, second 38, third 36 and so on.
The omnium race is a four-discipline event; the scratch race, tempo race, elimination race and points race. For the first three events, 40 points are awarded to the winner, 38 for second, 36 for third, and so on through the field.
The first event, the scratch race, is contested over 7.5km for women, the competitors start together and the first rider over the line wins the race.
Next up is the tempo race, over those same distances. From the fifth lap onwards, one point is awarded to the rider who crosses the finish line first every lap. (Riders can gain a lap, earning 20 points, but if they are lapped by the bunch, they will lose 20).
Third up is the elimination race. Every second lap, the last rider to cross the finish line is eliminated until there are two remaining, and they sprint it out.
Lastly, we have the points race. Covering 20km for women, there is a sprint every ten laps, with five, three, two and one points available for the first four riders over the line. The final sprint sees ten, six, four and two points available. Like the tempo race, riders can gain 20 points for taking a lap, but will lose 20 if they themselves are lapped.
The overall omnium winner is decided by the highest points totals after the points race.

Good morning and welcome to coverage of the final day of action from the Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines Velodrome on the final day of the 2024 Paris Olympics. Plenty of medals are up for grabs today and Team GB will be hoping to add to the seven medals they already have in the velodrome. The team won seven medals in track cycling in Tokyo so they have a good chance of beating that today.
The women’s omnium kicks off the action on the final day at 10.00 (BST) as Neah Evans, fresh from silver in the Madison alongside Elinor Barker, goes for GB. USA’s Jennifer Valente is the defending Olympic champion and she is looking to defend her title in Paris today. The silver medallist from Tokyo, Yumi Kajihara of Japan, is also in the field this time around. Laura Kenny competed in this event for GB back in Tokyo and finished sixth. The omnium is made up of four races; scratch, tempo, elimination and points.
At 10.22 Emma Finucane will be aiming for her third medal of the Games in the women’s sprint. Finucane, who won gold in the team sprint and bronze in the keirin. will take on New Zealander Ellesse Andrews in the semi-finals for a place in the final. Andrews has also won two medals so far at these Games; gold in the keirin and silver in the team sprint, which Finucane and her GB teammates Katy Marchant and Sophie Capewell won. Capewell has not joined Finucane in the semi-finals after she was knocked out in the quarter-finals by the Netherlands’ Hetty van de Wouw, who will take on Germany’s Lea Friedrich in the other semi-final. Capewell will be involved in a sprint for the 5th-8th places, which also includes Canada’s Kelsey Mitchell (who won gold in this event in Tokyo), Germany’s Emma Hinze and Colombia’s Martha Bayona Pineda.
Then at 10.29 Jack Carlin, who has two medals to his name in Paris, and Hamish Turnbull go in the men’s keirin quarter-finals. Carlin progressed smoothly into the quarter-finals whilst Turnbull had to come through the repechage. The Netherlands’ Harrie Lavreysen, who already has two golds to his name, will be a strong contender as will Australia’s Matthew Richardson, who has won silver and bronze at these Games.
Stay with us for all the action on the final day of track cycling.
