The second medal event in track cycling at the Paris Olympics, the men's team sprint pits teams of three powerful riders against each other in a test of who can compete three laps (750 metres) the quickest.
The Dutch team have been the dominant squad in team sprinting since 2018 when they claimed their first world title, and with the powerhouse Harrie Lavreysen in their midst, the trio have won five of the past six Worlds.
