Brad Hall and Nick Gleeson were bruised but unbowed after an 80mph crash battered Britain’s two-man hopes in Beijing.
On their third run, pilot Hall and push athlete Gleeson hit the track wall coming out of unlucky corner 13, crashing onto their side and sliding for five seconds over the finish line. Having passed concussion protocols, they took on a fourth run but were stranded in 11th place, 1.34 seconds shy of the medal they coveted.
