- UCI Track World Championships 2025: Wednesday, October 22 to Sunday, October 26
The best track cyclists in the world will descend on the Velódromo Peñalolén in Santiago, Chile, for the UCI Track World Championships 2025 from Wednesday, October 22 to Sunday, October 26. There will be 22 titles up for grabs across various disciplines for the right to wear the famous rainbow world champion stripes for the next year.
It may be the first time the annual championships haven't been held in Europe since Hong Kong in 2017, but cyclists from that continent will be expected to feature prominently among the medals after the Netherlands, Great Britain and Denmark led the 2024 medal table with four golds each.
Team GB have failed to win a medal in the women's team pursuit only once since the event's 2008 inception, picking up eight gold medals, six silvers and two bronzes. Katie Archibald, one of the most decorated riders in track cycling, will again form part of a strong team and the 31-year-old is also expected to feature in the madison and elimination races. Look out, too, for Emma Finucane, who dominated in 2024, winning the individual sprint and the team sprint (with Sophie Capewell and Katy Marchant).
Matt Richardson, newly of Great Britain after switching nationality from Australia, will go in the sprint after breaking the 200m world record a few weeks ago in Turkey. Dutchman Harrie Lavreysen, who won three golds at the Paris Olympics, and will challenge Richardson.
Ally Wollaston took gold in the women's omnium and elimination races in Copenhagen 12 months ago and the 24-year-old New Zealander will be favorite to retain her titles.
