World records and 21 gold medals are at stake on August 7 at the Paris 2024 Olympics.

World records are expected to tumble at the Paris 2024 Olympics on Wednesday, August 7th, as 21 gold medals are up for grabs. One of the most anticipated events is the track cycling competition. The men's team pursuit world record has been broken at each of the last six Olympic Games, and this year, defending champions Italy are strong contenders along with Great Britain and the current world champions, Denmark. Both the men's and women's team pursuit finals are scheduled for Wednesday evening. In the women's event, Great Britain and New Zealand are expected to battle for gold, just as they did in the women's team sprint on Monday, where Team GB emerged victorious.
