The Russian women step forward today to begin the defence of their team silver medal from the last Olympics, and to try to qualify to as many finals as possible.
I am not going to try to second guess the BBC's online, red button and other coverage today - it seems we just have to scrabble to find out where the best coverage is. The BBC is giving us wall to wall coverage of what matters, the action, and we are very lucky to have them even if it does annoy tidy-minded old me that there is no trustworthy definitive guide to what, where and when. We'll manage. The root guide is here - http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/live-guide. After that, it is a question of channel hopping. Everything will be online if not on the TV.
Start lists are here - http://sportgymrus.ru/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Startlist-s1-zhenshhiny-.pdf or you can visit RRG's Facebook page to view them.
Here are the lists of the subdivisions, and starting orders -
Rio start times for each subdivision are -
Sub 1 - 09.45
Sub 2 - 11.30
Sub 3 - 14.30
Sub 4 - 17.30
Sub 5 - 20.30
I can't find a separate listing on the BBC website for a broadcast of subdivision 2. Judging by the timings, I am guessing that this means that coverage of subdivisions 1 and 2 will be continuous.
You can follow live scoring at the FIG website, always hoping that it works. https://live.fig-gymnastics.com/schedule.php?idevent=6405
Good luck to all the gymnasts!
