**Christopher Malcolm Newton** (born 29 September 1973) is an English former road and track racing cyclist. During his career, Newton won three [Olympic](/source/Cycling_at_the_Summer_Olympics) medals (one silver, two bronze), seven [UCI Track Cycling World Championships](/source/UCI_Track_Cycling_World_Championships) medals – including two world titles – and three [Commonwealth Games](/source/Commonwealth_Games) medals. Since retiring as a rider, Newton has worked for [British Cycling](/source/British_Cycling) as a [directeur sportif](/source/Directeur_sportif) and coach.

## Biography

Newton was born in [Middlesbrough](/source/Middlesbrough), England on 29 September 1973.[2] He went to Linthorpe Juniors and Boynton Comprehensive in Teesside, and, aged 13, started cycling with Teesside Clarion.[3] He is an [alumnus](/source/Alumni) of the [University of Teesside](/source/University_of_Teesside) in [Middlesbrough](/source/Middlesbrough). Newton first competed in the [Commonwealth Games](/source/Commonwealth_Games) in 1994, winning the silver medal in the Team Pursuit with [Tony Doyle](/source/Tony_Doyle_(cyclist)), [Rob Hayles](/source/Rob_Hayles) and [Bryan Steel](/source/Bryan_Steel).

He was a member of the British Team Pursuit squad which finished tenth in the [1996 Olympic Games](/source/1996_Olympic_Games) in [Atlanta](/source/Atlanta). The team included [Matt Illingworth](/source/Matt_Illingworth), [Rob Hayles](/source/Rob_Hayles) and [Bryan Steel](/source/Bryan_Steel). He won the bronze medal in the Team Pursuit at the [2000 Olympic Games](/source/2000_Olympic_Games) in Sydney. He won a silver medal in the Team Pursuit, and the bronze in the Points Race at the [2002 Commonwealth Games](/source/2002_Commonwealth_Games) in Manchester.

Newton won the silver medal in Team Pursuit at the [2004 Olympic Games](/source/2004_Olympic_Games) in Athens.[4] He also competed in the Points Race, but failed to finish the race.[5] He won gold in Team Pursuit at the [2006 Commonwealth Games](/source/2006_Commonwealth_Games) in [Melbourne](/source/Melbourne).

Despite his focus on pursuing a track career at world class level, Newton's all-round ability has also seen him take many wins in top international amateur road races throughout his career.

Newton broke his collarbone on 6 March 2008 when a car door was opened in his path whilst he was training on the road, putting him out of contention for the upcoming World Championships at the end of March.[6] This put him on the backfoot at the [2008 Summer Olympics](/source/2008_Summer_Olympics) in Beijing,[7] where he contested the [points race](/source/Cycling_at_the_2008_Summer_Olympics_%E2%80%93_Men's_points_race). [Joan Llaneras](/source/Joan_Llaneras) built up an impressive lead to take the gold, leaving Newton to battle it out with [Roger Kluge](/source/Roger_Kluge) for silver. A late attack by Kluge left Newton unable to respond, but he was happy to take a bronze medal at his fourth Olympic Games.[7][8]

At the first round of the World Cup Classics series, in Manchester on 1 November 2008, Newton was on top form and dominated the points race. He was the clear winner and won the final sprint to a standing ovation from the crowd. On that night Great Britain won all gold in all 6 events.
