The qualification has been divided in 2 rounds that has left us some first impressions about the condition of the favourites and the 40 classified for the final.

Qualifiers for the 2021 XCC World Championships in Val di Sole

Due to the fact that there were too many entries for the first UCI XCC World Championship, the organisers have made a preliminary classification in 2 heats of 7 laps each on a circuit of less than 1km. 

Only the top 20 in each classification will be in the final.

As we have already said, Mathieu van der Poel will not take part in the World Short Track Championships. He was the undisputed favourite but a back injury has prevented him from taking part in this World Championship. In addition, big names like Mathias Flueckiger or Nino Schurter, among others, have decided not to take part in the XCC World Championship and to save their energy for the XCO race on Saturday.
