Sir Chris Hoy has pulled out of the European track championships in Apeldoorn due to a chest infection.
The sprinter had ridden in sprint qualification this morning, posting a 10.177 second ride, fourth fastest, but knew he wasn't feeling right. "He hasn't been feeling too well. He warmed up, was a bit dizzy on the rollers, did the qualifying but he wasn't right," GB coach Shane Sutton explained. "After an examination from the doctor we decided to withdraw him."
