Seen on a large TV screen and watched by gasping spectators is the ill-fated heat of the British cycling team (Philip Hindes, Jason Kenny and Sir Chris Hoy) which was restarted after one rider's bike malfunctioned during the London 2012 Olympics. The British team went on to win gold a little later. This land was transformed to become a 2.5 Sq Km sporting complex, once industrial businesses and now the venue of eight venues including the main arena, Aquatics Centre and Velodrome plus the athletes' Olympic Village. After the Olympics, the park is to be known as Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park.
