The commissaires made a mess of keeping track of the men's madison. Belgium were originally declared champions when the race finished and had their world feed winner interview before the commissaires called them up, spent ages looking at the data and then finally removed them from the podium for losing a lap during the race.
For the record, GB finished joint-last with Australia, the latter of whom actually gained a lap within the first 10 laps; they both finished 4 laps in arrears of winners Spain. Oh, and Doull crashed twice during these championships.
GB's tally of 5 World Championship medals (fourth in the medal table) is the worst haul since 2004. Germany top the table (which I expected), France are second (which was a bit of a surprise, even considering Pervis's form) and Australia are third.
Without doubt, Francois Pervis and Kristina Vogel are the star performers, since they are the two latest track riders to wear three rainbow jerseys on the same podium. And unless I'm mistaken, Anna Meares now has 22 World Championship medals to her name.
