After Roubaix in 2021, the French Cycling Federation made an appointment at National Velodrome from 12 to 23 October for the public to admire the elite of world cycling. This is the first time in history that a country has hosted these championships for two consecutive years.
This place is not unusual. This velodrome will be the Olympic site for the track cycling during Paris Games 2024 in just under two years. As many as 22 events allowed cyclists and para-cyclists to experience the quality of the Saint-Quentin track.
In terms of results, the French clearly shone and finished:
-
third in the ranking of medals for cyclists of the worldUCI with 7 medals, of which 3 in or. They follow the example in the Netherlands and Italy, on a par with Germany.
- third in the ranking of medals for UCI Para-cycling World Championships with 17 medals, of which 6 gold !
The goal is now very clear for all our athletes: see you in Paris 2024!
