IRELAND’S RICHAEL TIMOTHY has narrowly lost out on a chance to compete for a medal in the C1-3 3000m Individual Pursuit Qualifying race, falling outside the medal places.
A two-time world Championship bronze medallist in the scratch race, Timothy clocked a time of 4:05.247 which left her ranked seventh overall.
China’s Wang Xiaomei registered a C3 World Record in 3:44.660, while Great Britain’s Daphne Schrager did likewise in the C2 classification, lowering her own record to 3:45.133.
Wang and Schrager will return to the velodrome later this afternoon to go head-to-head in the gold medal race.

The car crash being man utds season amiright?
Hopefully Bruno will be fit, his work rate, ability to track runners and his ability to whine moan and fall over will be good news for Liverpool though that said his creativity could be a problem for Liverpools high line if Utd had willing runners
I will roar with delight if Liverpool win tomorrow
Hopefully they will crash by 3 or 4 goals tomorrow Brian my old son
@O’Brien Michael: pool be raging hot favourites anyway. Cant remember one of these sides being such hot favourites going into this fixture. But ue know what, even if utd lose 6 0 the world will keep spinning and we’ll get back on the horse. And who knows, maybe they’ll pull a huge performance out. Unlikely but that’s the beauty of football.
@Brian Dunne: They have nothing to lose tomorrow as Liverpool are raging hot favourites and that’s what makes United so dangerous Brian.
@O’Brien Michael: what ever you need to tell yourself I suppose
@O’Brien Michael: Top 4 to loose, surely they can’t expect too many more pardons from Arsenal and Spurs.
