A fire at the velodrome in Rio de Janeiro's Olympic Park was brought under control early on 8 April, with no risk of it spreading to other parts of the complex and no injuries reported, fire officials said.
Around 80 firefighters and 20 fire trucks tackled the blaze, the state's military fire department said in a statement, adding that no one was hurt.
The velodrome was built for the 2016 Rio Olympics and is administered by the city government. It houses the Olympic Museum, which features exhibits and historical artifacts from the Games, including the Olympic torch and medals.
In 2017, its roof was struck by two fires, causing minor damage.
