After bronze for Matthew Robertson, we've had the gold final in the men's C2 3,000m individual pursuit.

France's Alexandre Leaute, who set a world record of 3:24.298 in qualifying earlier today, has unsurprisingly taken gold, beating Belgium's Edwoud Vromant with a slightly slower time of 3:26.015.

Blaine Hunt won the silver medal in the men's C4-5 1,000m time trial final, and was talking to Channel 4:

"[The medal is] heavy. My legs are heavy. It was a lot of hard work, seven years. All my family are over there and my daughter.

"I feel I can finally take a break and be a dad for a bit because I put so much trying to get this. It just means so much."

On the sacrifices he has had to make:

"My wife sleeps with three bikes in the bedroom. At least one in the front room. There’s about five in the shed.

"I miss out on family things. My nan died before I came here. They’re postponing the funeral so I can be there. It’s things like that you miss out on.

"I’m just glad that’ve I’ve come out on the lucky side and I am able to go home with something."

That's bronze for Matthew Robertson in the men's C2 3,000m individual pursuit! He crosses the line in a time of 3:30.508.

He led Shota Kawamoto from the start, and the Japanese athlete finishes fourth for a second successive games.

Half-way round and Robertson leads Kawamoto by one and half seconds.

The GB athlete is looking comfortable, and is encouraged by his coach as he passes.

A huge cheer for Blaine Hunt as he gets his silver in the medal ceremony.

Hunt was well supported here in Paris, with fans wearing t-shirts emblazoned with the word 'Blaine', others wearing fake moustaches in tribute to his excellent facial hair.

Hunt, now 35, previously worked in sports broadcasting including at the Olympics, before moving to the other side of the velodrome track. He's now a Paralympic medallist.

I'll be 35 by LA 2028 and currently work in sports media. Perhaps I should take up cycling?

Jody Cundy finished fourth in the time trial final and was speaking to Channel 4:

"[It's] just not to be. I gave it everything. I’m not a million miles off my best here and I tried to back it up this afternoon. I did pretty much the same time as this morning but everything I had in my legs is gone.

"It would have been nice to be on the medal board, but we’ve got the team sprint in a couple of days so get all the focus back on that and we can come back because we’ve got Kadeena [Cox] with a point to prove.

"A little bit disappointed but everything I do, I try to perform at my best. A whole bunch of people have contributed to my whole career. I feel like I can give it everything and hopefully it can be enough but unfortunately it wasn’t."

So, that's one medal confirmed for ParalympicsGB in the velodrome.

They are guaranteed another two when Jaco van Gass and Fin Graham face off in their final. Matthew Robertson races for bronze shortly, while there are three GB women in the B 1000m time trial.

Keep count, folks.

Drew Barrand, chief executive officer of Aquatics GB spoke to 5 Live Breakfast about ParalympicsGB's great start on day one:

"We had a sense was going to happen. The team is in a really strong place, preparations have been great.

"We felt going in that we had a nice mix of some debutants who are really pushing on, and obviously a couple of people who have experienced the Paralympics before but equally will have experienced Tokyo which isn’t quote the same as when you are swimming in front of thousands of people.

"We talk a lot about venue mindset and being venue-ready and it is a big jump up in what they’re used to. You saw how full that arena was last night, it’s a big crowd, noisy crowd and you have to be prepared to deal with all of that."

Beth Munro said she felt "really emotional" after losing her K44 -65kg quarter-final and that possibly "the nerves got to me today".

The 20-16 defeat by China's Yao Yanin means Munro can't win gold but could claim a bronze if she comes through the repechage at 16:31 BST against Denmark's Lisa Gjessing, who beat her in the Tokyo Paralympics -58kg final in 2021.

"I had a clear plan and I just didn't execute it - I just left it too late to try and win the points back," she said.

"I feel really emotional at the moment, I'm probably going to go away and cry for a bit, let it sink in. I'm truly sorry.

"I just feel that I've let my family and friends down who have come all this way to support me, and my coach.

"It just didn't go the way I wanted it to but unfortunately that is sport. I'll take the loss, I'll hold the grief for a while, and I'll move on and see what happens next."

ParalympicsGB enjoyed another successful day in wheelchair rugby, reaching the semi-finals of the competition with a 55-53 win over Denmark.

Having beaten Australia 58-55 yesterday, they now can't be overhauled by either side in the four-team Group B, with the top two progressing to the semi-finals.

GB face France in their final group match tomorrow.

Korey Boddington does enough to win the gold medal for Australia, with his time of 1:06.650, beating Great Britain's Blaine Hunt by just over a tenth of a second.

Hunt, 35, ends with a silver, a brilliant effort on what is his Paralympic debut.

Jody Cundy and Archie Atkinson narrowly miss out on medals, finishing fourth and fifth respectively.

Australia's Korey Boddington will end this final up next.

His run earlier today was faster than the 1:01:776 set by Blaine Hunt a moment ago.

If Boddington can recreate that, a gold medal is his.

A sensational ride from Blaine Hunt, who was a second down on Alfonso Cabello after 500m but dragged it back with a strong finish.

Aged 35 on his Paralympic debut, Hunt is guaranteed at least a silver medal.

Excellent from Blaine Hunt, who has just guaranteed himself at least a silver medal, moving top of the leaderboard with just one run still to go.

Hunt was behind Cabello by the best part of a second for almost of his run, but his final lap saw Hunt really pick up the pace and pipped Alfonso Cabello's time by just over two tenths of a second.

Archie Atkinson is out of the medals, while Jody Cundy moves to third, meaning he could still get bronze, depending on the final run from Australia's Korey Boddington.

A blow for Jody Cundy, with Alfonso Cabello moving to the top of the leaderboard.

Cabello's time of 1:01.969 is just over half a second faster than Cundy, which moves the Spaniard top of the pile with two runs still to go.

Archie Atkinson of ParalympicsGB drops to third place.

Next up is Great Britain's final cyclist in this race, Blaine Hunt.

Jody Cundy has medalled at all seven of his previous Paralympics, going back to Atlanta 1996.

He's done all he can to keep that remarkable streak going.

Archie Atkinson's run was quick, but Jody Cundy uses all of his experience to move top of the leaderboard with three runs left to go, with this being his eighth Paralympics.

Cundy goes top with a time of 1:02.504, just over a second faster than Atkinson.

From the C4 world record holder to the C5 world record holder. Next to go is Spain's Alfonso Cabello.
