UCI Track Cycling World Championships
Venue: Berlin Velodrome, Germany Dates: 26 February-1 March
Coverage: Live on BBC Two, BBC Four, BBC Red Button, BBC iPlayer, BBC Sport website and app and through Connected TVs.

Great Britain’s Olympic medal hopefuls will test themselves against the world’s best at the UCI Track Cycling World Championships in Berlin.

Jason and Laura Kenny, who hold 10 Olympic golds between them, are the star names seeking to show their form in the build-up to this summer’s Olympics.

Four-time Olympic champion Laura chose not to have an operation on a broken shoulder so she can continue her Tokyo 2020 preparations.

Other Olympic medallists in the 20-strong British squad are Ed Clancy, Phil Hindes, Katie Archibald, Elinor Barker and Katy Marchant.

You can watch live coverage of the championships on BBC Two, BBC iPlayer, BBC Red Button and via the BBC Sport website and app, with all of the action available to watch again on the iPlayer.
