This is an overview of the progression of the Olympic track cycling record of the women's team pursuit as recognised by the Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI).
[1] The women's 3000m team pursuit discipline for 3 riders was introduced at the 2012 Summer Olympics.
After the 2012–13 track cycling season the UCI changed the discipline into a format of 4000 m with 4 riders, as it will be at the 2016 Summer Olympics.
During the Qualification session there were several teams who rode a new best time and so had temporarily the Olympic Record.
They are not listed as Olympic Record holders because they did not win the qualification session.
