Spain and France are the latest teams to confirm their selections for the UCI Road World Championships in Rwanda (September 21-28), adding the likes of Juan Ayuso, Julian Alaphilippe and Pauline Ferrand-Prévot to the start lists of the elite races.

Despite some high-profile drop-outs in recent weeks, and riders like Jonas Vingegaard, Mathieu van der Poel and Lotte Kopecky skipping the Rwanda Worlds, many of the biggest cycling nations are still assembling strong teams, with Grand Tour winners and stage winners among those lining up for next weekend's road races.
