Warner Bros Discovery will be running live coverage of the 2024 UCI Track Cycling Champions League, showcasing a sport that was one of the most-watched events on Eurosport during the Paris Olympics.
- All five rounds live on Eurosport, plus Discovery+ in the UK and Ireland.
The UCI Track Champions League returns this weekend – with every moment from every race from each of the five rounds broadcast live on Warner Bros. Discovery platforms in Europe, across Eurosport and its streaming platforms Max and discovery+*.
Throughout the series, which starts this weekend in Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines – just outside of Paris – Eurosport will air a pre and post-show that will be broadcast across Europe, including in-depth analysis of the action as well as exclusive interviews with some of the competing riders. Former professional cyclist Adam Blythe and double Olympic champion Joanna Rowsell will offer trackside coverage of the action from each round with Rob Hatch leading commentary.
Extra features on Discovery+
Fans enjoying coverage on discovery+ will be able to follow every pedal press, lap, and plot twist. In use at each venue will be one cable cam, four onboard rider perspectives, 12 track cameras and one derny for the Keirin, providing viewers with unique access to angles and moments that are typically off-limits. Viewers will also have the chance to utilise the timeline marker feature to easily skip back to unmissable moments throughout the night.
Superstars of the velodrome including Harrie Lavreysen (Netherlands), Ellesse Andrews (New Zealand), Emma Finucane (Great Britain), Katie Archibald (Great Britain) and Matthew Richardson (Great Britain), return to the track for the fourth season of the UCI Track Champions League meaning viewers across the continent will be able to sit back and enjoy a star-studded roster of Olympic and World champions fans go wheel-to-wheel.
