    This beam, by the way, is 10cm wide. It's like trying to land a backflip on your mobile phone.

    Here comes Biles, right after seeing Canada's Isabela Onyshko slip off the beam.

    14.500 is leading so far.

    Right then, the beam final is under way. Eight athletes all with one chance to nail a routine on a platform as wide as a slice of bread.

    Biles is third to go.

    The last final of the day at the Olympic Arena. Simone Biles the star attraction. Can she win a fourth Olympic gold? Probably.

    A warm welcome as the gymnasts appear to test themselves on the beam, leotards glistening in the light.

    The women's Laser Radial sailors, which includes GB's Alison Young, are heading out for an attempt to get their medal race over and done with but the men's Laser has been postponed for the day. 

    So GB's Nick Thompson must wait to see how he fares. He's currently sixth. 

    There looks little chance of the women's race happening either as the boats are barely making it out into the race area, and if they can't start before 20:30 BST, they too will come back tomorrow.

    Olympic bronze medallist Sophie Hitchon on BBC One after her performance in the women's hammer: "I definitely want to go to Tokyo 2020 and we’ve got the world championships next year. Hopefully I can increase my personal best.

    "Everyone’s really excited by everyone doing so well. Everyone does feed off that. It’s a great atmosphere in the village in the Team GB block."

    The conclusion of that men's vault competition means the stage is cleared for the women's beam final. American darling of the Games Simone Biles will look for gold medal number four of a potential five. It begins at 19:45.

    The Pau de Acucar (Sugar Loaf mountain) course looks like a still pond with the Laser and Laser Radial boats yet to get under way in their medal races.

    We're hearing the women's Laser Radials may hit the water soon, but the men's Lasers are still parked outside the boat shed, giving the appearance of a quiet night on the taxi rank. 

    At least the waiting media can rest up a bit. Not me, obviously!

    Silver medalist Louis Smith on BBC One: "I think back to Beijing and it seems so long ago now. To be here, alongside Max on the podium, it meant so much. It was absolutely brilliant.

    "I'm really interested in going to Tokyo. I have to listen to my body but if it allows me to, I'l definitely be trying to get to Tokyo.

    "During my drugs test I was checking my Twitter and JK Rowling messaged me, giving her congratulations. I haven't replied yet because I don’t know what to put back! That was a very big moment."

    Max Whitlock also revealed that a pub in his home town of Hemel Hempstead has been named after him. I say after him, they've called it the Pommel Horse. Is that a better tribute than a gold post box?
