Great to see France doing so well. Given the enormous financial and emotional expense of hosting the Olympics, it is usually good to see the home nation thriving (unless it is Russia or China).

There is no diffrences between West and East, the methods of success are the same. Pushing necessary sports disciplines and doping.

Amazing that you can rape a 12yo girl and then still go to the Olympics...

Got tense and a bit Verstappen-esque towards the end from Pidcock in the mountain biking.
The punctures the GB cycling team starting to seem a little suss - now that it's happened in a second men's outdoor cycling event in as many races.

And here's another medal.
Slalom canoeing is totally exhausting to watch.

Generally speaking British crowds are pretty fair.

Generally speaking British crowds are pretty fair. I did think at first he may have impeded the French guy when he overtook him and possibly cheated - hence the booing - but it was fair in the end.
The French just hate losing but my goodness they can create an atmosphere.

Alex Yee is predicted to repeat his triathlon silver from Tokyo. Well that's not going to happen today. Presumably Seine Water is owned by one of the same companies that owns a British water company.

From chatting to the "kids" today, it turns out that both know people at the Olympics! Rebecca climbed with (in the sense of in the same academy) as Hamish McCarthur, and I do remember her talking about Hamish and how amazing he was for one so young! Think he won the U14 category championships at Edinburgh when he was 12, and I watched Rebecca finish 27th out of about 60 there and was just chuffed as she was #1 in Yorkshire in her age category at the time! And Sam says he has run against George Mills, who I didn't realise is of course the son of Danny Mills. So the kids are rooting for both of them to do well!
