The women's Madison event at the 2024 Summer Olympics took place on 9 August 2024 at the Vélodrome National de Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines.

Background

This was the second appearance of the event after it was introduced at the 2020 Olympics.

Qualification

Competition format

A madison race is a tag team points race that involves all 16 teams competing at once. One cyclist from each team competes at a time; the two team members can swap at any time by touching (including pushing and hand-slinging). The distance is 120 laps (30 km). Teams score points in two ways: lapping the field and sprints. A team that gains a lap on the field earns 20 points; one that loses a lap has 20 points deducted. Every 10th lap is a sprint, with the first to finish the lap earning 5 points, second 3 points, third 2 points, and fourth 1 point. The points values are doubled for the final sprint. There is only one round of competition. [1] [2]
