Highlights from the Women's Omnium Elimination Race during the London 2012 Olympic Games.
Cycling is among the rare sports that have always featured on the Olympic programme. Road cycling, however, was not on the programme of the Paris 1900, St Louis 1904 or London 1908 Games, while track cycling wasn't in the programme of the Stockholm 1912 Games.
The first road event in Olympic history took place in 1896 on the marathon route at the first Games of the modern era in Athens. The race started in Athens, headed towards Marathon, then returned to Athens, at the Phaliron velodrome.
Olympic cycling was added to the women's programme in Los Angeles in 1984, with an individual road event.

🗞️ News from the Olympic world: oly.ch/News
I watch ALL sports, this is by far the most impressed I have ever been with any sportsperson in one event! 👏🏻
I don't know anything about this sport, but watch the videos all the time because it's just so graceful and fun to watch.
Joshua Boyd first across the white line wins lol
Joshua Boyd soccer game
Joshua Boyd ur like me
Last one is out. There can be only 1 🤣
Me too, I don't know about this sport too but watching video is so fun.
Wow, what a cool race! Never seen that concept before. Last place drops out until only one left. Love it!

2021 still reliving these 2012 cycling elimination races.
This is intense
You ryt!!...INTENSE!!...the RACE itself is GREAT...but...listening to d commentator is TREMENDOUSLY INTENSE!!...IS HE TALKING UNDER D BLANKETS??😨😨
wow this is the first time i understand a race lmao!! awesome!!!
Laura's wave in the final straight was delightful.
it's so incredible hwo Laura trott is a powerful sprint specialist but shes also seemingly too tiny for her power, and also somehow competes in this event which looks more endurance related
Omnium is actually quite short, maybe 4 or 5 miles, which is like running a mile in terms of endurance/effort. Her small size helps with her drag, which is a lot of cycling. That's how Mark Cavendish (another tiny cyclist) sprints so effectively! : ) Cycling is so neat
Wow, she's an absolute rocket. Power way beyond her stature.
Laura also had endurance. Possibly her best event was the 4,000 metre pursuit.
Top ride Laura.....x
It was a glorious 2012 Olympics!!
Wow! so awesome race. Very clear to understand now.
Anyone else love the design of the british 2012 helmets?
Once again Laura hammered Sarah!
Rewatching this...was hammer doping that was insane how she had that much tank
so grate
that was fireee
Épico 🎉🎉
There might aswell not be a commentator, couldnt hear a word he said the whole race
Team song in cycling
Pretty hopeless. The man sounds like he's sleepwalking to the bathroom in the middle of the night, his voice muffled by a mouth full of cotton wool. Couldn't they have chosen someone who's at least half awake, and turned the background volume down a bit?
Where did Trott make any sort of illegal move? I can't see one. And track racing is more of a contact sport than most think, if that's what you thought.
OMG !!!!!!! That was incredible ! And she wasnt even panting at the end ! Wooooo hooooo !!!!!!
hammer has beaten trott in this same scenario, but in this race she had to work harder to not get eliminated so that final sprint just wasn't there. fantastic race all around
hammer is the shitiest rider ever to throw a leg over a saddle
How energetic British sprinter wowwwwwwwwww
Fun to watch
The only potentially dodgy move I saw from Trott was a rather sharp move up, but it was a forced move to avoid another rider coming up that was in no way deserving of relegation. Bunch races are dangerous, deal with it.
she did it multiple times though....and then got dusted in the end.
Красивый финал 👏
Well, *none* of the very experienced commentators seemed to see anything ...
Lol love seeing all the Olympic nerds fight over who made illegal moves and who didn't NOOB
Assistindo os vídeos agora em 08/03/2023 aqui de Curitiba/Pr- Brasil 🇧🇷
Diva inglesa.reina de la velocidad
Genial
Hot to Trott...!!!
Should introduce this format in F1. That might even make it interesting.
when?
se tivesse um brasileiro ai ganharia com certeza !!!!!!!!!!!!
Nem se classificaria
the speed and timing....
La del primer lugar, wauuuuu, què potencia.
Back when I was a track racer, this was my favorite event. I usually did pretty good.
cool
@@habdman lol why is your name so long
رائع
Ah I see, in other words she made no illegal moves. Thanks for clearing that up.
illegal and anti-athletic moves are different. Trying to scare riders behind you so they can't make a pass should become illegal, especially when it is repeatedly done on the final straight.
does anybody know what wheel set that number 31 (NED) has??
Shimano

The American girl needs to learn how to hold a straight line. She's a squirrel out there.
she took out at least two riders
It sounds like the commentators microphone was in another room
Para el final fue todo potencia
Are they riding fixed gear? Because I saw no brakes on any of their bicycles
track bikes are allways fixed gear
No brakes indeed....they use the slope of the track to regulate their speed....especially in sprint events
***** - Dont you mean 14 - 52?
Evert Clowting u raja . Fixed gear
한국선수도 있었군요. 화이팅~~ 싸이클이 재미있네..
i've never seen this sport before... but i can say it's lit
How is it possible that the sound is so bad?
good job sarah hammer!
I'm here for the new anime rinkai😂
QUEREMOS QUE LES HAGAN JUICIO SI O SI Y DEN TODA ESA MEDICINA Y TECNOLOGÍA QUE TIENEN PARA SANAR A TODO EL MUNDO.
Quais são as regras, como funciona esse esporte?
sempre depois do sino tocar, o último a passar a linha é eliminado. simples assim
always love seeing this us great britain pissing that race by that woman what a powerhorse she is. :D
i come here for the pawgs
Same thing.
DIOS ESTÁ CONMIGO Y CON NOSOTROS
Ok so if she makes 'tons of illegal moves' how about you go through the video and name the time of when each 'illegal move' happens and then give me the UCI code it infringes.

Nope
cool

Hi, i'm 14 years old and really want to become a pro cyclist when i'm older! just wondering what speed do i need to be able to average for say a 10 mile road ride at this age?
well you're much older now, but what would you be doing in the Gym, since the endurance.staimna and power are obv important.
England!!!!!
Who decides who's first in line tho?
You must be a terrible cyclist if you think trott made multiple illegal moves.
Yeeeeessssssss
Lol, the American really thought she was gonna win
inhuman acceleration on gb bike
don't forget, those frames were all destroyed after the olympics...
Is lee wai sze in the race?
There is no one from India 😔
Hmm, fast women.
thumbs up to all bikers!
13:06 very clean british lady ... 😑
yeye that lady is an Olympic champion
She literally got forced out by the Australian lol
Thomas Whorton wow that's true, well, the american is who makes the agressive movement
lol it was the american who initiated the jerk. you can clearly see her doing the same thing the next lap too
SALVEN A TODAS LAS PERSONAS INOCENTES DE ELLOS
I also want to invent a sport
Why... why do they keep riding when they have been eliminated? Do they get a second chance?
Because there are no brakes... They stop only when their momentum runs out
There's no second chance... they just can't stop the bike spontaneously..
Trotty!!!
Hello kumusta..._
¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡DIOS AYÚDAME, DIOS AYÚDANOS, NADIE LO HACE, CASI NADIE EN EL MUNDO NI EN LA VIDA LO HA HECHO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well, I was wondering, how do they know that they are eliminated? I mean anyone passes on a message or something else?
Red light blinks in the middle of their handle bars when they are eliminated
Look at that blip blip blip red thing in the middle

Not even close
for the elimination race, the best place to be during the race is 2nd or 3rd.
Congrats n stay safe::: Cyclists!!!
The winners are the dirtiest riders. LMAO. Fascinating.
One of the most exciting events in cycling with the most awful commentary.
É like like like
i thought that the race was entertaining and a good contest, not just one country not getting first being the entertaining part. how about poland, russia, belarus, china, cuba, australia, spain, etc etc not winning first? was that entertaining?
👍👍👍👍💶💶💶💶🙏🙏🙏♥️♥️♥️♥️

Yo soy el camino la verdad y la vida nadie va al Padre sino es por mí, María Buda los muñecos ni las obras salvan solo Cristo salva, hay papas hay sacerdotes hay catequitas hay religiosos enseñando doctrina de demonios engañando a los pueblos como escaparán del infierno, te invito a escapar acepta a Cristo como único Señor y suficiente salvador personal, para que sean perdonado tú pecados y tenga parte con él en su reino, no te preocupa por ti.
the top few didnt had big thighs. I think that have advantage for longer distance.
bagus
Trott doping.
Stop lying you are not a track cyclist. Get over it the british won.
¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡DIOS HAZ QUE TODO EL MUNDO SEPA TODA LA VERDAD Y DENUNCIE EN TU NOMBRE!!!!!!!!!!!!
Don't break wind. Don't come in last. What stupid kind of race is this?
