Preview

Several cyclist didn't participate because the competition took place early in the track cycling season and just after the road cycling season. Besides of that, two days after the competition the six day of Amsterdam started.^[2]

Competition format

Because of the number of teams, there were no qualification rounds for this discipline. Consequently, the event was run direct to the final. The competition was shortened with 20 laps compared to 2009 and consisted on 80 laps, making a total of 20 km. The aim of the madison is to score as many points for intermediate sprints as well as for lapping the pack.^[2]
