Velodrome at Rio

At the Rio Olympic Games, a new velodrome was open to the public, at the Barra Olympic Park. Some people consider it "the fastest velodrome in the planet" because 33 world records were beaten there. But this velodrome also featured other events apart from the cycling events of the games, things like a BMX freestyle exhibition.
