Medals are thin on the ground thus far for Team GB on day two of the UCI Track World Cup Championships, which are taking place in Astana, Kazakhstan. The Team – Matt Crampton, Ross Edgar, Sir Chris Hoy, Jason Kenny, Jason Queally (Men’s Sprint), Becky James, Jess Varnish (Women’s Sprint), Ed Clancy (Men’s Omnium), Dani King (Women’s Omnium) – have thus far failed to really shine with Varnish and James held back in bronze by Germany in the Team Sprint, whilst in the Omnium European Champion Ed Clancy only managed seventh for the day after three disciplines – 13 points off a medal, despite a win the flying lap. Still plenty to play for in this the first round of the Championships, which tomorrow (Sunday, November 6) sees Chris Hoy in action.
