POINTS RACE

The London 3 Day
NOVEMBER 13 - NOVEMBER 15
What the race is

The Points Race is a distance event decided not by who crosses the line first, but by who accumulates the most points along the way. Sprints are contested at regular intervals throughout the race, with points awarded to the leading riders each time. On top of that, any rider who gains a lap on the main field earns a substantial points bonus. It's a long, strategic effort that rewards both explosive sprinting and the strength to attack off the front.

Key rules

Scoring Sprints

Points are awarded at intervals throughout the race, typically to the first four riders across the line.

Gaining a Lap

Lapping the field earns a rider a significant points bonus.

Losing a Lap

Riders lapped by the field lose points.

Staying in Contention

Riders must balance chasing sprint points against attacking for laps.

The Long Game

Consistency across the whole race matters as much as any single sprint.

Winner

The rider with the most points at the finish wins.
