The format
As its name suggests, the UCI Champions League On-track takes place in a league format, with each round featuring the same racing schedule. Riders compete in one of two categories, Sprint or Endurance, and score points across all five rounds. Each category includes two types of races in which competitors can accumulate points: sprinters compete in Sprint and Keirin events, while endurance runners take part in Elimination and Scratch races. 18 riders can participate in each category, meaning 72 riders compete in total (36 men and 36 women). Four champions will be rewarded: two men and two women in each category.
