    Botswana's Letsile Tebogo is the one to keep an eye on in heat three.

    He finished sixth in last night's 100m final - setting a new national record - and won bronze in the 200m at the 2023 world championships in Budapest.

    I am so happy for Team GB, I could see they were going to win. I am so happy for them, I actually feel quite emotional.

    Absolutely fantastic. Such a beautiful performance. It was powerful, it was confident.

    To then break the world record, they haven't just broken it today, they have smashed it. 45.186, that is incredible.

    That was absolutely fantastic.

    It has finally put to bed the fact that the women's sprint side of the cycling side is weakest.

    There are Union Jack flags all around the velodrome.

    If you opt for that kind of attire (see 7:03 entry) then you need to deliver and Tarsis Orogot certainly does as he kicks on in the last 30m to cross the line in a winning time of 20.32.

    Wanya McCoy from the Bahamas qualifies in second with Brazil's Renan Correa third.

    Three rides, three world records. You can’t ask for more than that.

    They just got faster and faster, they’ve found how good they are and how to work as a team and that was a masterclass.

    You're not missing too much in this final at the moment... it's a slow start and won't offer a great deal of excitement until that bar is raised a little closer to 6m.

    They are going at 5.80m right now.

    Latvia's Valters Kreiss is the only athlete to have dropped out from the 11 involved.

    New Zealand were 0.473 seconds behind and they'll get silver.
