Jody Cundy explains his outburst

Yesterday track cyclist Jody Cundy was disqualified from the C4-5 1km time trial after a controversial false start.

The Beijing 2008 double gold medallist’s subsequent outburst sent shockwaves through the Paralympic world. I caught up with Cundy this morning after he qualified for his secondary event – the 4km C4 individual pursuit – where he talked through the moments immediately following his disqualification.

Having placed third in the this morning’s qualifiers, this afternoon Cundy will be battling for bronze.

Do you think Jody Cundy’s outburst was justified? Let us know by leaving a comment!

    I believe his outburst was justified. I think most people would have reacted the same under the circumstances. It’s just unfortunate he did it in public.

Have your say
