UCI Road World Championships 2024 - road race contenders

(L-R) Lotte Kopecky, Tadej Pogačar, Demi Vollering and Remco Evenepoel.

The road races at the UCI Road World Championships 2024 in Zürich are upon us, with the elite women's and men's the final road events at this year's Worlds. The races against the clock are scheduled for the last weekend with the women's race occurring on the Saturday, 28 September, followed by the men's on the Sunday, 29 September.

Both are over seriously hilly courses that finish in the centre of Zürich, the biggest city in Switzerland, with the men's the longest race in a generation. Both resemble Liège-Bastogne-Liège in their profile and distance, and both will surely be decided on the Zürich city course.
