UCI Road World Championships 2024 - Junior Men's Road Race contenders

Seven riders formed the breakaway in the men's junior road race at 2023 Road World Championships, won on final lap attack by Albert Philipsen (Denmark).

The distance of the junior men's road course at the 2024 UCI Road World Championships is a carbon copy of Glasgow's 127.2km route but the climbs on the city circuit around Zürich are a little different, opening the door for rivals to defending champion Albert Philipsen (Denmark). 

Most of the 1,913 metres of elevation gain takes place on back-to-back sections of the Zürichbergstrasse and Witikon, while last year there were short, punchy climbs around Glasgow for 1,863m total.
