There has been some chatter about realignment in the 2026 UCI World Tour calendar.
I am wondering if the one day (1.WT) race "Classic Brugge - De Panne" will be in the 2026 calendar. It could be the same race under a different name, even under a different organizer, and even on a different date. But it should have some clear path of continuity to the current Brugge - De Panne race. If it moves back to being a multi-day stage race, that is also the same race.
To resolve Yes, the race should appear on the official UCI World Tour event list or calendar as announced by the UCI near the start of the 2026 UCI season.
If the race is listed on the UCI calendar at a lower level such as 1.Pro, the market will resolve No promptly. If the race organizer announces the race is canceled for 2026, the market resolves No promptly. If the race is completely absent from all calendars and there is no announcement of cancellation, the market will resolve No on 1 January 2025.
If there are new race levels for the 2026 season, then the 'WorldTour' equivalent level means the same level as the Tour of Flanders race is assigned, or higher.
