German cyclist Tim Torn Teutenberg secured seventh place in the omnium at the Olympic track cycling competitions, demonstrating his potential following a European Championship title and a victory in the U23 Paris-Roubaix. Meanwhile, eight-time world champion Emma Hinze finished fifth in the Keirin final, while her teammate Lea Sophie Friedrich was eliminated in the semi-finals, leading to disappointment for the German team. National coach Jan van Eijden highlighted the inconsistency that hindered both riders from medaling, despite their strong performances leading into the Olympics. Hinze and Friedrich previously won bronze in the team sprint, but have struggled to replicate their World Championship success at the Olympic level. The men's team also faced challenges, with none qualifying for the top 16 in the sprint events. Overall, the German cycling team aims to regroup as they prepare for upcoming events, focusing on the individual sprint and other competitions.
