I think he'll have to do more than nothing to be even close to being in contention with 500m

Unlucky Cav, they controlled 80% of the race, but let 1 too many breakaways go

Put a fiver on Cancelarra to win, 10 mins later he stacked it into the barriers...

Didn't help that no team other than GB was ever at the fro.t of the peloton, obviously the rest of them assumed we knew what we were doing

Poor from Team GB despite the commentators trying to blame others.

Tactics were wrong, ultimately.

Wiggins is more to do with time trials than out right race wins. In the tour they have sections which are timed and Wiggins is best at them.

They have the sprint which happens at the end of a race and the likes of Cav specialise in that.

Then they have the king of the mountains

Not sure I would say they controlled the 80% of the race. IMO the race was controlled by the lead away group as thats was caused all the problems - its why Cav was no-where and its where the leaders came from.

They controlled the pack so that they suited Cavs style of cycling but as soon as people started breaking away to join the lead pack they had to respond and didn't. Controlling the pack gets you nothing when there are ~ 30 people in front of you

Not a swimming fan by any means, but Ryan Lochte in the 400m medley just took the piss out of the rest of them

Wasn't even a race, he was miles ahead. Phelps in danger of tarnishing his legacy as the most heralded Olympian of all time!

she smashed a fairly easy group in that heat

its going to be hard for her to medal later on this evening in the 400

I think some of our 'big hopefuls' will lose out over the next few weeks typical of the British
