At first I was going to compare them to the Jamaican Bobsled Team, but then I did a little research. They aren't bad, 13 gold, 13 silver, 16 bronze.......not bad at all.!
Personally, it'd crop the poles and paving and gap at the bottom leaving only the artwork and metal background. I think that'd clean it up and make it a more striking image. Just my thoughts like.
