TÓQUIO 2020

Ciclismo de pista OlímpicoOlympic Track Cycling

By Phil Bainbridge

July 23, 2021 - August 8, 2021 - Os Jogos Olímpicos de Verão, os Jogos da XXXII Olimpíada, têm lugar em Tóquio, no Japão. Com a reintrodução do Madison, haverá seis competições de ciclismo de pista masculinas e femininas, sendo as outras o sprint, sprint por equipas, keirin, perseguiç\ao por equipas e omnium - uma combinação de quatro disciplinas.

To varying degrees, strategy and tactics are key to track cycling events, to conserve energy by using the air resistance of the rider in front - by sharing the lead with a member of your own team or, in individual events, by allowing the opponent to take the lead.

The Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games feature 339 events in 33 different sports, encompassing 50 disciplines. It is the second time that Japan, and specifically Tokyo, has hosted the Summer Olympic Games – the first being in 1964.
