David Lappartient will serve another four-year term as UCI President after no other candidates came forward for the position. Following his initial election in 2017, Lappartient's re-election this time will not require a vote. He has a history of leadership within cycling, previously serving as president of the European Cycling Union and vice-president of the UCI. Lappartient aims to expand cycling's reach globally and promote new disciplines, emphasizing the sport's rich history and future potential.
"Every day when I wake up, I want to find some new ideas. Our goal here is to enlarge cycling, to bring dreams to young riders and kids, to give the opportunity to see some wonderful events worldwide for all the disciplines across the five continents."
"This sport is not coming from nowhere. We have a very strong history and solid routes, more specifically on the track and road, but with the new disciplines coming in, we have so many opportunities. Cycling is becoming a real big sport worldwide."
