Arshanskaya athlete Tatsiana Sharakova updated the Belarusian record

In the individual pursuit race at the first stage of the Track Cycling World Cup in Cali, Colombia, she covered 3 km in 3 minutes 33.98 seconds, improving her own record by almost 1.5 seconds. This time allowed her to take first place.

Our compatriot also performed excellently in the elimination race, finishing behind only the world ranking leader, the British rider Laura Trott. Thus, Tatsiana has significantly strengthened her position in the race for an Olympic license. The second stage of the World Cup will take place from December 4-6 in New Zealand.
