Great Britain's men's gymnastics squad qualify for the team final at the Rio Olympics as they look to improve on the bronze they won at London 2012.

Great Britain's men's gymnastics squad has qualified for the team final at the Rio Olympics.

Max Whitlock topped the standings in both the pommel horse and the floor to help Team GB to third place in the second sub-division.

Louis Smith also impressed on the pommel, while Olympic debutant Nile Wilson placed second in the all-around competition.

"I'm happy with what I've done today. The team have pulled together really well and I'm really pleased to come up first in the floor and pommel. Hopefully I'll be in those finals," Whitlock told reporters.

"It's probably one of the strongest teams we've ever had. The 2015 World Championships where we came second in front of China really proved that. We need to take what we've done [in qualification], use the experience we've got and go out there and enjoy it."

Wilson added: "I'm loving every second of it and I'm focusing on enjoying myself. Today all I was focusing on was my gymnastics and what I can do. I had a couple of little wobbles, but all in all it was very consistent and clean. "We've trained all our lives for this competition, so I'm not going to let anything get in the way of that."

Team GB will now look to improve on their bronze from London 2012 in Monday's final.
