The women's omnium event at the 2024 Summer Olympics took place on 11 August 2024 at the Vélodrome National.
Background This was the fourth appearance of the event, which has been held at every Summer Olympics since its introduction in 2012.
Qualification
Competition format An omnium is a multiple race event. The current Olympic format features four different types of race.
The entire event is contested within a single day, but there are breaks between the different races.
The winner of the omnium is the cyclist who obtains the most points across the four races. The winner of each of the first three races earns 40 points, the second-place cyclist earns 38, the third-place rider 36, and so forth, and the final race has special scoring rules. The races in the omnium are:
Scratch race: Mass start race; first to cross the finish line is the winner. Distance is 7.5 km (30 laps). Tempo race: The new race for 2020, the distance is 7.5 km (30 laps). After the first five laps, the winner of each lap earns one point, and lapping the field earns 20 points. If a rider loses a lap, they lose 20 points. The winner of the tempo race is the cyclist with the most points (the points earned within the tempo race, i.e. for winning each lap and for lapping the field, do not count for the omnium total; they are used only to rank the cyclists' final placings for this race). Elimination race: Every two laps, the last-place cyclist is eliminated. Points race: A 20 km (80 lap) points race, with points earned for sprints (5/3/2/1, every 10 laps, with double points for the final sprint) and for lapping the field (20 points). If a rider loses a lap, they lose 20 points. The points earned within the points race (i.e. for winning each sprint and for lapping the field) count towards the omnium total.
There is only one round of competition.
