Registrations for Season 2 of the world’s biggest cycling competition close at 23:59 UTC, November 2nd

Zwift Racing League, the biggest virtual cycling competition, saw 14,000 people compete in Season 1 2022. Registration for Season 2 is now open. Teams have until 11:59 pm UTC on November 2nd to register. 

Zwift Racing League is a team-based competition held over a period of six weeks, with the winners crowned at the end of the competition. Zwift Racing League offers friendly competition for all abilities. Season 1 saw Zwifters compete across the full spectrum of categories; A+ (3.4 percent of registrants), A (24.7 percent), B (41.3 percent), C (24.3 percent), and C (6.1 percent).

Races alternate between Team Time Trials (TTT) and circuit races. For Team Time Trials, the result is taken from the fourth rider across the lines with points awarded based on finish time. Team Trial events now also benefit from Zwift’s new TTT functionality, allowing teams to warm up in the pens for a predetermined start time. In circuit races, points are awarded based on the finish position. Bonus points are also available via “First Across The Line” (FAL) or “Fastest Through The Segment” (FTS) primes, with points awarded to the top 10.
