Katie Archibald (Great Britain) won her second Women’s Endurance title in front of a home crowd while Ellesse Andrews (New Zealand) reigned supreme in the Women’s Sprint.

Since its launch in 2021, the UCI Track Champions League has consolidated its place as one of the ‘Monuments’ of track cycling, sitting alongside the Tissot UCI Track World Championships, the Tissot UCI Track Nations Cup and Olympic Games at the very pinnacle of the global racing calendar.
The series – organised in partnership between the events division of Warner Bros. Discovery Sports and the Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI) – makes track cycling more accessible and exciting than ever before, elevating the sport to new levels and reaching new audiences in the process. As well as captivating thousands of fans inside the velodromes, the exploits of the world’s best riders will once again be beamed across the globe, with discovery+, Max, and Eurosport, and a host of international broadcast partners bringing the sport to countless screens.
Last season over 20,000 fans watched the action in person, with TV viewers tuning in from 107 countries around the globe and millions more fans following the action on the official UCI Track Champions League app and social media channels.
