The qualifying rounds on Wednesday will reveal who, alongside the already seeded riders, will be able to secure a place in the battle for victory and thus the lion’s share of the prize money on Saturday. There are already some high-caliber riders on the starting grid.

New this year: The women’s final will be broadcast from the Round of 8 and the men’s final from the Round of 16. This means that the livestream will start in the afternoon, at 13:30 Central European Summer Time.
