- Mens Sprint Final Gold Medal - 2014 UCI Track World Championships, Cali, Colombia
This is a clip from the 2014 Track World Championships, Cali, Colombia
Track cycling dates back to at least 1870 and, with the exception of 1912, has played a part in every Olympics in the modern era. Track Cycling events can be roughly split into 2 disciplines -- Sprinting and Endurance
Sprint Events:
Individual Sprint - This is a very tactical event in which riders try to outmanoeuvre their opponents. Sometimes riders will come to a standstill in an effort to make their opponent take the lead, which is the least advantageous position before the final sprint to the finish line.
Team Sprint - This spectacular form of racing sees two teams start off on opposite sides of the track. It is raced by teams of three riders over three laps for Elite Men and two riders over two laps for Elite Women. Each rider leads for a lap before dropping back.
Kilometre / 500m Time Trial - This is an individual time trial from a standing start. Elite Men race over 1km and Elite Women over 500 m. The competitor with the fastest time is the winner.
Keirin - Keirin racing originated in Japan. Contested over 2 km, the field of three to seven riders follows a pacing motorbike at an increasing speed, all the while jostling for position. When the motorbike pulls off the track with two and a half laps to go, the battle begins to win the sprint to the finish.
Endurance Events:
Individual Pursuit - Two riders start on opposite sides of the track and compete over 4 km for Elite Men and 3 km for Elite Women. The winner is the rider who manages to catch his/her opponent or who records the fastest time.
Team Pursuit - Two teams of 4 riders (3 riders for women) start on opposite sides of the track and compete over 4 km (3 km for women). The winning team is the one that manages to catch its opponents or that records the fastest time.
Points Race - This superbly tactical discipline is contested over a long distance, usually 40 km for men and 25 km for women in major events. The final result is determined according to points gained during sprints (one every 10 laps on a 250 m track) and when a rider manages to lap the rest of the field.
Madison - Up to 18 teams of two riders take part in this relay race contested by means of intermediary sprints. While one team member races, the other slows down to take a rest. When he rejoins the race, his teammate throws him into the action with a hand sling. The classification is established according to the distance covered and the points won in the sprints (every 20 laps). The Madison is held over distances of 25-50 km for Elite Men, depending on the competition.
Scratch Race - This is a race for up to 24 individual riders over 15 km for men and 10 km for women. The first across the finish line is the winner.
Omnium - The Omnium is made up of 6 events and is disputed over 2 consecutive days. The final classification is established by adding up the finishing places in each event. The winner is the rider who has the lowest total. At the 2012 London Olympics, the Omnium comprised a Flying lap, a Points race, an Individual pursuit, a Scratch Race, a Kilometre / 500m time trial and an Elimination Race.

For those who don't understand what's going on.
1. Winner is who finishes first (time is no matter). One of cyclists starts to move first.
2. Hard to believe, but at 50-70 Km/h the windage eats 90-95% of cyclist's power.
3. There is 2-meters zone of low airpressure behind a cyclist moving at 30 Km/h or faster. So if you move behind other cyclist you use 30% less power.
That is why a Mr.Second has huge advantage in energy consumption at high speed. At low speed (up to 15 Km/h approx) Mr.Second has no advantage.
If Mr.First start with 30 Km/h (or faster) he will spend 30% more energy and Mr.Second easily outruns him on last 100 meters spurt.
If Mr.First want to win he starts with extremely low speed and waits for last 100-200 meters sector where he has a 3-4 meters advantage for finish spurt.
From start to last 200 m sector Mr.First always tries to stop moving with hope that Mr.Second couldn't stop and moves to first position.
This is a game of nerves, skill and thews ))
this is a really nice description. I allready knew, but it is a very nice description
though it doesn't answer why they just wont make a "sprint" race for one round only (or even let them start on opposite sides). the answer is probably: because of tradition and/or: it just would be another sport
Aaaaah !!! The context
streem cat oo..i see..that's helpfull..thanks
thats fast what hapens when you fall at that speed
I didn't realize they started for a solid minute or so. I thought they were doing some sort of pace lap...
Get a reality, get a life, get a shave.
death2pc *says the one judging others for no reason on yt*
@@death2pc dafaq?
Same
🤣🤣🤣 Like that sport
Man i dont even remember what i came to yt to actually watch. That was kinda cool tho
whaaaat same
King P lmaooo
I ended up watching cycle ball. Pshhh
Lol
Sameeeee hahahaha
71.44 km/h... 🙄🙄 These guys have motors in their legs... Insane!
Incredible but Robert forstemann is 80.1 Kmh
Lies again? USMNT Champions Trophy
These bicycle are competitions
These bikes made of carbon😅
Doping in their legs!
For folks who are confused as to how this works. These types of cyclists are what's known as sprinters, sprinters can produce an insane amount of acceleration and high speed but only for a short period of time, kinda like 100 meter running sprinters.
On bikes a LOT of what stops you going really super fast is wind resistance, caused by literally just going fast, if however you can get behind another cyclist you have far far less wind resistance, approximately 30% less, this is known as drafting.
So basically they don't care about how fast they finish in, it doesn't matter, all that matters is who crosses the line first, because both riders can probably ride exactly the same speed as each other the person in front is actually at a disadvantage, because the person in second can put the same amount of power down but actually travel 20-30% faster than the leader, this usually means if you can be deliberately second but only just behind first you can normally overtake and win in the last half a lap.
I know it may seem straightforward, but once you're on a bike with no brakes up steep banks going slow and playing mind games with your opponent you'll understand. We are talking seconds that feel like minutes.
Sumotrees f
I know from anime 'yowamushi pedal' so they have sprinter, climber etc
Andy Wheale
30% less wind resistance isnt equal to 30% faster, but very close to 20% faster
Mrizald no no its different from road cycling, yowapedal is road cycling
6:06 my cat when it wakes up and stretches
Hahahhaha
Oh man how great is that. Blasting justice through the speakers right before a frenchman wins on the second round. Nothing could be more appropriate.
The ride is great but after the match, the sportsmanship of these two is incredible
I would love just to try riding one of those bikes on that track. So cool
Most velodromes have a try the track option
Riding a fixed gear bicycle is a huge adjustment from riding a normal bicycle which you can coast and not always have to pedal. It takes some getting use to mentally but the more you ride one the easier it is to not think about it. And yeah the velodromes are all around the world and there are some in the United States. You just gotta find one close to you. And there’s rules on how the bicycle has to be set up, no breaks and your feet have to be clipped in
Magnifique Pervis. Deux athlètes de classe internationale, que c'est beau !
THANK you so much for bringing this to us!! And congratulations to two very fine athletes !!
thanks to the many comments for explaining this sport. I was totally lost
Great sportsmanship, love it!👊👊👊👏👏
That was a thing of beauty! As a former match sprinter in the late 70's, the winner here has picture perfect form. I myself liked to sprint from the rear position, and I preferred to give a bit more room. That way, I could use the draft to slingshot past the opponent. But it is harder to win from the front, but better in some ways too. This sprinter is good. He should be proud. and his coaches too. Congratulations, new World Champion!
arklat liar
I love this sport. Amazing
That Epic Sportsmanship in the end is Glorious😊🌄😇💖💯
CZcams: It's Been 6 Year's Ago!!!! Do You Wanna Watch?
Me: Why Not 😂
These bikes are fixed gear, no free wheel hubs, its amazing how they reached 70km/h. I wonder what gear ratio they're running.
its approximately 55/10 mb 55/12
The most efficient drive train there is for a bike. u get back what u put in generally.
How on earth could anyone possibly reach those speeds on a track if you had the hindrance of a free-wheel?
These are super fun to watch left turn circuit cycling over road cycling any day.
Dude this was badass
staggering acceleration
This is my first time seeing this kind of sports, and I am so impressed, what a amazing game
Fantastic race!
Ah those were the days! Loved the velodrome racing at T-town, Pa. Announcer says he won by a wheel. Dude it was half wheel.
Cali, Colombia💜
Ok, I think I understand this so far. So the reason for the slow movement in the beginning is for one to get behind the other so the guy that's behind can take advantage of the aerodynamics and get ahead at the end? And this is due to the short distance they must pedal? Am I getting this correctly?
It's so awesome if u know what they r doing and why... Technique, skills, and mental strength!
True Gregory Bourge is my number one man.
this is too fast............
There is never to fast
Trace Jones r/wooooooooosh
HazelNutt: r/thisisnotreddit
what an interesting sport!!!
Amazing sport.
You've done well sprint champion.
As far as I understand there are laps and the last lap is the most important so that's why they're playing around at the first laps and then punch the paddle to win
Man biking is so fun to me . I bike everywhere . I wish I could participate in this sport
Get a bike, locate your nearest velodrome, find a team, then Compete
ok, im, addicted to this competitions and bikes now!
Amazing sprint
Never seen a race where you gotta be able to drive real fast and real slow
*i have seen this raw strength only once before*
I allready subscribe to your channel . Am really looking out for a subscriber
Cali D. E.: Capital Deportiva del Mundo en furor con ese evento tan hermoso y lleno de adrenalina pura.
Gracias Cali por ser sede de tan importante deporte mundial.

Welcome to a new episode of why is this on my CZcams recommendation
Cool race format!
항상 사이클열심히하는모습 너무보기좋고 굉장히 멋있습니다. 부디 다치지말고 운동하시기바랍니다.
I've heard
Justice- Genisis❤️
wow
absolutely crazy speeds on a flat surface, does anyone know the world record speed?
the absolute record is close to 200 mph
@@ulysseguillaume7043 its 232kmh, i think, down a hill. i meant in the sprints
the record i was talking about is the one where there is a car in front to shield from drag. I have seen pros go up to 100km/h with the wind in there back
@@ulysseguillaume7043 ohhh i remember seeing that one. i think it was about 160kmh, so 100 miles, but dont quote me on that
Some people reach around 80-85kmh max.
speed, time and strong..good good
Yes, this looks fun.
480p looks like 1080p
Cause technology improving bro
@@googleaccount6328 Dude, the pixels remain the same... It because the camera isn't zoomed or youtube fucked it up...
@@benten1443you rai bro I see what u meen naow
@@matteohernandez2035 Yeah plus I just realized this video has 720 p too...
@@benten1443 lol was joke
Incredible duel!
71.44km/h !!
I wish they could graphically simulate wind drag using translucent colors of different intensities along the two riders for the spectators to clearly understand what strategic game is going on. Or should I come up with one? 😁
Good friend I like the vidio good luck and healthy always greeting compact from INDONESIA
It was so fantastic
That would be so fun to go that fast
Just skydive bro
just go down a hill, its not hard to achieve 60/70kmh downhill
What is the point of going around the track and doing handling maneuvers until the bell goes off?
they try to accelerate from the best strategical/aero position (from behind).
the bell means the final lap
You don't have to watch this video
What a beast!
"There you go.. There you go.. There you Goooo......." 🏁
I was so confused then they just flew off
lol, 3:01, Justice - Genesis playing in the background.
I see a man of culture, I press like. Apt music for a final tho
que hermosura
Amazing....
70kph sprint is madness! The most I can do is 52kph sprint. (Flatspeed)
Only 52? I can do that with my 14kg MTB that has massive knobby tires
@@dismiggo that 52 I did was on a 13kg hybrid, standard mtb tyres. What’s your max on that mtb?
@@Triadii 66 downhill (on a street), and 50 on the sprint
@@dismiggo I thought you’d be faster than that by your earlier reply, lol
@@Triadii Give or take 1 or 2 kph. I didn't record the ride, so I had to look down at my cycling computer when I was finished sprinting, so actually I probably went faster than 50, I'm just not sure.
And I was just surprised that you were so "slow" because I assumed you did it on a road bike
Why are people not talking more about Pervis? He is dominating.
Man of culture, we meet again
Wow... The speed.
I knew you could do it Armstrong 😆
Não entendi esse final, quer dizer não entendi foi nada
É dois
Francais carvis,pura potencia!
Superb!!!
Beginnings are always funny, its basically SLOW MOTION !
am i the only one who doesn't understand this game?
I only understand halfof whats going on.
Yes
Yes, read the top post
Be first across the line, simple.
at top speed the person in front create a pocket of air the makes it easier for the rider behind. so riders perfer the be in the back until the very end. if you are in the front and cant make the person pass you in the beggining, you go slow until a certain distance from the finish and hope you can keep the lead long enough at top speed to overcome that pocket of air advantage the rider behind you has.
Awesome.
hi there. would you like to explain to me briefly how this game is working
in 4:13 there is so much distance between them for the second guy to benefit from. couldn't the first guy go hard?
As the top comment at the top of this video says, at 50-70 Km/h the windage eats 90-95% of cyclist's power, so being in front is actually a pretty big disadvantage and it lets the person behind them pedal against little wind as they're pedaling behind the person who's tanking all the wind. Which in turn lets the person behind go faster and in the end one up the person in first. Hope this makes sense.
@@jwust1n I know that. What i'm trying to say is when the first goes faster, the second guy won'be close enough to benefit from the tanking as there is too much gap at 4:13
think if i entered this, i just take my time and cycling slowly 🤣🤣
Amazing
70 y 71 km/h Huaooooo Sorprendente!!!
2019!Hello)
I'd like to know the 5 sec average power of these guys, maybe 2,500 watts.... and 1,500 watts for 30 secs. Pretty much the same wattage one would get out of an angry/hungry grizzly bear.
Shane Perkins can generate over 2,500 watts... Enough to power 12 flatscreen tvs.
They can generate a lot of watts... but do not compare them with a grizzly bear. All 24 sprinters power combined may just exceed a grizzly's by a slight margin, but do not compare them individually..
Waw! first time i see this sport
So fast 😱💪
Does anyone know why they start off so slow?
to save energy for the last lap
why not just flat out race for one lap where both start at the same time? then we would know who is really faster.
nameless5r That type of race does exist but it is called either a time trial or chariot race depending on which specific rules you include. In fact the qualifying for this race is a 200meter time trial (which then sorts out the riders based on speed into brackets). The point of this race is for the racers to use tactics as well as speed, which tends to make the racing a bit more dramatic (for some). "So he's stronger than you, find a way to beat him."
.
Jonathan Perry
i see...i get the concept now but its just not attractive to me. Thanks for the info.
nameless5r No problem, there are plenty of time trials to choose from, which tend to be much more direct and rely much more on pure speed than tactics. Check out the "flying 200", "kilometer" and "Pursuit"
Jonathan Perry i don't think i get it - are there specific rules they have to follow? would it be a disadvantage to go first for some reason, like drafting?
crazy power
genial
At start, i thought it was slowmo.. Hahahaha
I think side mirrors can help them a lot not looking back so watch their opponents :)
never wanted a frameset more in my life than that LOOK one.
excellent strategy
Lol i thought it was a pace run at first so I skipped to see the actual thing start but when u skipped they were already going so fast and I was like : oh u guys already started.
70km/h ooof.
Any place in Canada where I could try this thing? 😦
I don't get it.
They start whenever they want?
Thanks to the comments I understood what's happening in the beginning, for my ignorant self it looked like more of a mating dance.
Eu sou o único q n entendeu foi nada
Eu tbm nao entendi foi bolotas nenhuma
