BMX Racing has established itself as one of the most exciting events at the Olympics. Colombia’s Mariana Pajon is known as the Queen of BMX and has won gold in the women’s event at London 2012 and Rio 2016, as well as a silver medal in Tokyo three years ago. In Paris, she just missed out on a place in the final. She told CGTN’s Dan Williams that she will carry on racing and says she is proud at how the sport has developed.
