Olympic Gold medalist Elinor Barker took Silver last night in the scratch race in the World Championships in Hong Kong. Baker was edged out by Italian Rachele Barbieri in a thrilling sprint in the 40 lap race.
Barker, who admitted that her start probably cost her the race was disappointed not to win the race, but did congratulate the winner Barbieri.
Tomorrow night sees the men's relay team, which consists of Chris Latham, Andy Tennant, Mark Stewart and Ollie Wood will compete against the Italian team for the Bronze medal.
It was a disappointing loss for the men's team sprint, as they missed out on a medal winning race. Jack Carlin, Ryan Owens and Joe Truman missed out by 200 hundreds of a second!
