Who will take home the rainbow jerseys in 2026? Here's all you need to know to watch.
The UCI Road World Championships conclude this weekend with the pinnacle events, the men's and women's road races. The women's race kicks off first on Saturday, September 26 at 9 a.m. ET in Montreal, featuring eight laps of the challenging Mont-Royal circuit. Among the competitors to watch are Magdeleine Vallieres from Canada, a world champion from last year's Rwanda edition; Lotte Kopecky from Belgium, a double winner of the past two years; and Kristen Faulkner of the United States, the 2024 Olympic road race gold medalist.
The men's race on Sunday, September 27 promises more excitement, especially without the presence of two-time defending champion Tadej Pogacar due to his crash in La Vuelta a España. Remco Evenepoel, who finished second last year behind Pogacar, will aim to complete the time trial-road race double. Belgium's top team, led by Evenepoel and Wout van Aert, will be a formidable force, while Mathieu van der Poel of the Netherlands seeks to secure another victory. France, aiming to showcase rising star Paul Seixas, will also vie for podium positions.
