LIMA. The sprint, and specifically the Keirin mode, gave the national track delegation the golds of the Lima 2019 Pan American Games. In the first instance the winner was Martha Bayona. This Sunday was achieved by Kevin Santiago Quintero, author of the triumph that raised the country in the Peruvian capital.
Quintero, born in Palmira, Valle, conquered his first gold in a Pan American Games beating with authority in the grand final the Venezuelan Hersony Canelón and the Argentine Leandro Botasso, who despite their effort to overcome in the last cant, saw how the Colombian dominated the outcome with a powerful sprint.
The victory over the velodrome of the Villa Deportiva Videna, meant the third time in the event for the talented sprinter who climbed to the podium with Rubén Murillo and Santiago Ramírez in team speed, and the bronze was hung in individual speed.
The day also had among its protagonists the santandereana Martha Bayona, who won the silver in the individual speed, being measured in the final against the Canadian Kelsey Mitchell.
The Colombian said goodbye to the contest with a bronze in team speed (along with Juliana Gaviria) and a gold in the keirin, a specialty in which she has obtained the best results of her sports career, including the subtitle of the Hong Kong World Championship 2017
The last medal of the delegation was obtained by Juan Esteban Arango and Brayan Sánchez, in the men’s madison. Chile and the USA were gold and silver, respectively. In the women’s category, Lina Rojas and Milena Salcedo finished in fourth place.
Colombia finished the Pan American track with a total of nine medals: two golds, three silver and four bronzes. (Fedeciclismo Colombia)
