Last season the UCI Track Champions League reached 149 million viewers in 206 countries, with over 62 hours of programming, fulfilling its ambition of putting track cycling on the global stage and attracting a new, international audience.

Four Canadian riders – Hugo Barrette, Maggie Coles-Lyster, Lauriane Genest and Olympic gold medallist Kelsey Mitchell – took part in the first edition in 2021.
