Events: 22

The Track Worlds Championships are taking place outside of Europe for the first time since Hong Kong hosted it in 2017 and return to South America for the first time since 2014 when it took place in Cali, Colombia. This is the fifth edition to be hosted by a South American country, and the first in Chile.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The Netherlands took the competition by the scruff of the neck on day one, winning all three events, including the women’s scratch race and both the men’s and women’s team sprints. The Dutch, lead by talismanic sprinter Harrie Lavreysen, have been the dominant force on the track since the Tokyo Olympics in 2021, and they show no sign of giving up that position.<\/p>\n

However, a year that follows an Olympic Games can also see ‘transitional’ teams compete, as Olympic champions set other objectives for the year, and young riders are brought into the team to give them experience years out from the next Games in Los Angeles, 2028.<\/p>\n

Riders to watch <\/p>\n

Emma Finucane (Great Britain)
The British sprinter continued her dominance of women’s sprinting at last year’s championships, winning the individual sprint and the team sprint (with Sophie Capewell and Katy Marchant), two of the four golds the British women brought home from event in Copenhagen, Denmark.<\/p>\n

Harrie Lavreysen (Netherlands)
The Dutchman is considered the greatest track sprinter of all time, and he\u2019s only 28. A former BMX rider, Harrie Lavreysen counts an unprecedented 16 track world titles and five Olympic gold medals, three of which he won in Paris.<\/p>\n

Matt Richardson (Great Britain)
Following his post-Olympic nationality switch to Great Britain, Richardson had to sit out international competition for a period of time. He’ll be desperate to get back into it and take the racing to Lavreysen, buoyed by his recent world record rider in Turkey<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Ally Wollaston (New Zealand)
Two world titles in Copenhagen last year propelled Wollaston to the top of women’s track cycling. Prior to that, she won two medals at the Paris Olympics: silver in the team pursuit, and bronze in the Omnium.<\/p>\n

Katie Archibald (Great Britain)
One of the most decorated riders in track racing returns to the boards for another major championships. With two Olympic golds, multiple world and European titles to her name, she will once again be the rider to watch in the women’s endurance events.<\/p>\n

Josh Tarling<\/a> (Great Britain)
The Ineos Grenadiers time trial specialist is making his senior World Champs debut for Great Britain<\/a> in Chile, but he won’t be riding any events against the clock. Instead the Welshman will ride the Points race and Madison.<\/p>\n

Lorena Wiebes (Netherlands)
The best women’s sprinter (on the road) of the generation, perhaps ever, returns to defend her scratch race title. with 25 wins on the road this year, and two on gravel – including the recent world championships – few would bet against her defending her title.<\/p>\n
