    I suspect Wiggins, Doull, Burke and Clancy will refuel before that final, so that's exactly what I'm going to do. Here's Tom Rostance...

    Great Britain fans in Rio

    This pair certainly stand out in Rio. English - or rather - British gentlemen Will Howard and Nick Lynch, resplendent in the sharp suits, bowler hats and Union Flag ties are experiencing an Olympic velodrome for the first time.

    Howard, from London, told me: "We couldn't get tickets for cycling in London so it's great to be here tonight, with Sir Bradley in action. There are so many British fans in the velodrome, you'd think this was a home Games.

    Lynch added: "We've got tickets for 30 events. We saw the GB men on the rugby sevens yesterday and GB beat Argentina in hockey. We're off to the Athletics later for Super Saturday.

    "It's chaos over here but we're really enjoying it!"

    GB level it up

    That is more like it!

    Sam Ward bravely slides in to make it 1-1.

    GB have since had an Ashley Jackson goal ruled out for a deflection, but they're in with a chance.

    Four minutes left in the second quarter at Deodoro.

    Watch it live here.

    Oh dear. Russia's Nadezhda Bazhina loses her footing on the springboard forcing her to not take off correctly. Watch as she splashes out in the women's 3m springboard preliminary.

    That final, remember, is just after 22:30. Before that, there are more heats in the women's team sprint and the men's individual sprint, where Callum Skinner and Jason Kenny will be on the track once more.

    They didn't have to do that (go for world record) it was just a matter of winning the race. 

    You have got to expect they will do a 3:49 in the final if they recover from that ride.

    I think GB had to work so hard they got to the last kilometre and they thought they might as well see what can do. It was a much more controlled ride.

    It wasn't given to them at all, they rode much more smoothly.
