    Men's madison

    Oliver Wood's partner Mark Stewart pointed out that the men's madison was so tight that no pair was able to bag extra points for gaining a lap: "I'd watched a lot of races and the level is coming up. Teams are cancelling each other out. The level is so good nobody can physically take a lap."
