Both the men's and women's events are contested by teams of four, over 16 laps (4km). Riders take turns on the front before swinging up the track's banking and slotting back down to the rear of the 'train', with teams often losing a rider before hitting the line.
The men's event is set to see a blockbuster battle between the reigning Olympic champions Italy, the world champions Denmark, and the European champions, Great Britain. Great Britain might have been the favourites for the women's event but they lost their star rider Katie Archibald to a freak injury.
