We told you on the air that it could be a SPARKLING season finale! And in fact the UCI publishes its new calendar compressed in just 2 months including both the DH and the XC!
The UCI, as soon as there was a glimpse of the post covid-19 limitations, has drawn up a new calendar for the 2020 World Cup and World Championships, both cross country that of downhill.
Some stages have given up due to the difficulty of reorganizing themselves on another date while other locations have even doubled the commitment condensed into a single month. cross country and in two months the downhill.
Leogang, already designated for the DH World Championships, will also welcome the XC World Championships after the resignation of Albstadt.
Some locations like Nove Mesto, Maribor and Lousa, will host a double round. The athletes will be involved in two separate races over the same weekend and on the same track.
Surely the show will not fail given the concentration of events. We would not like to be on the side of the athletes, it is not easy to manage such a calendar of competitions so full of events.
