Hazel Irvine introduces another high-octane afternoon of Olympic action as BMX freestyle, canoe slalom and gymnastics take centre stage on day five in the French capital.

Japan are seeking a record fourth successive gymnastics gold in the men’s individual all-around final, while the Brits have only ever won two medals in the event – Max Whitlock’s bronze in Rio came an eye-watering 108 years after Walter Tysall took silver in 1908.

The early afternoon will be dominated by the flips and tricks of the men’s BMX freestyle final, with Team GB’s reigning world champion Kieran Reilly likely to be in contention. Also taking place are judo, shooting and the thrilling women’s C1 canoe slalom final, with British world champion and Tokyo silver medallist Mallory Franklin seeking another podium finish.

Key finals
13:45-14:44 BMX: men’s freestyle (1st & 2nd runs)
16:25-17:10 Canoe slalom: women’s race
16:30-19:15 Gymnastics: men’s individual all-around
