Team Sprint - Australian pair of Anna Meares and Kaarle McCulloch set the pace for all to follow.
Final The Australian pairing of Anna Meares and fellow World Champion Kaarle McCulloch claimed gold in the team sprint. The 26 year old Queenslander then joined 21 year old Sydney rider McCulloch for the team sprint with the pair wearing the rainbow stripes of reigning World Champions. They posted the fastest time in qualifying (33.363sec) to set up a gold medal ride against Dutch pair Yvonne Hijgenaar and Willy Kanis who were six tenths off the Australian pace in 33.949sec in qualifying. In the medal round Meares was the only rider to post a sub-19 second first lap clocking 18.754sec and giving McCulloch a perfect platform to bring home the win with a final time of 33.653sec, half a second better than the Dutch (34.014sec). Germany defeated Great Britain for the bronze medal. Qualifying The Australian pair of Anna Meares and Kaarle McCulloch qualified fastest in the Team Sprint with a time of 33.452 seconds. Meares blasted the first lap in a time of 18.833 seconds. Having ridden first, the Australians had to wait until the British pair had ridden to have it confirmed who they would meet in the Gold medal ride. The French pair of Sandie Clair and Clara Sanchez secured their place in the Bronze ride with a time of 33.609 seconds. They meet the Lithuanian team who completed their ride in a time of 33.617 seconds.
Anna Meares and Kaarle Mcculloch (AUS) blew the competition away again setting the fastest time in the Team Sprint. “I've been struggling a bit with sickness which has affected my preparation so I’m really pleased we got the win,” said McCulloch. “It’s been great but I’ve done a lot of work to get here," Meares said. "I wanted to start the season well and I've done that for sure."
