Pretty typical for any "Balustrade" (the fense around a velodrome) ....
It is at a level the riders can hold on to it before rolling out ...

Typical track racing , and a classic hook. You can take 'em to the
fense .... but you aren't supposed to leave them there.

If you want to check out poor sportsmanship ... watch the end of this

I'd like to know what happened to the poor chap who slid lifelessly down the
track. Looks like he hit his head on a post but no one mentions him.
