Heusden-Zolder - Italian cycling confirmed its position as a world track superpower and swept the Junior World Championships in Heusden-Zolder, winning 16 medals (8 gold, 6 silver, and 2 bronze). It was hard to imagine they could top last year's World Championships in the Netherlands, when the team collected six world titles and 13 medals. A year later, with most of the 2025 contenders now in the Under-23 category, the Italian team has done even better, returning from the Belgian track with an incredible haul: 16 medals, including a whopping 8 world titles.
