A report from a week ago that I missed, it does look lovely in the film.
London 2012 Olympics: velodrome built from Siberian pine to create cycling track made for record times - Telegraph

There's an interesting article in today's Cycling Weekly on it, and an interview with the great Ron Webb.

Please tell me that I'm not the only one who wants to gatecrash and test it 

[David Martin]

It does look very good, doesn't it. Sprinters track or pursuiters track?

[Rhys W]

Sprinters. They've shifted the finish line 5m forward from Manchester's - something to do with being the right side of the line when they exit the banking for the last 200m.

Will it get used before the Olympics though?

These peeps are, amongst their other habits, no strangers to 'acquiring access to premises before they're finished'.
No idea whether any of their number extends to cyclists, though.

EDIT - some stonking photography on that site.

almost certainly, they'll need to test everything out. Bejing was used for the World Cup before the Olympics
