PS Which could explain the beeps not coinciding with the release!
A very good point. Yes, lip synch is way off so that almost certainly explains it.

Any idea why she wasn’t wearing team kit (Drop-Le Col)?

The record attempt was sponsored by Le Col and it was one of their skinsuits that she was wearing. There were Le Col signs up in the Velodrome.

Yes, understand that, but she’s contracted to Drops (Le Col are their kit sponsors) for this year and they pay her wages until the end of the year, so I was surprised she wasn’t wearing Drops-Le Col kit.

If I was the Drops team owner, I’d be a bit miffed, as I expect the other team sponsors would be, too. (Tempur mattresses, Mavic wheels etc., etc.)
 
I think aero is such a big part of the success of the Hour record that the choice of skin suit matters hugely.

Perhaps you can't have them in team colours.
