How do the world championships affect Olympic qualification?

Despite the fact that there are two Paris 2024 quotas per gender available for the 2022 Urban Cycling World Championships, they will only be distributed in accordance with the outcomes of the 2024 Olympic Qualifying Series (OQS).

The top-ranked athletes are given six quotas per gender in the Olympic Qualifier Series 2024. The first of the two remaining quotas per gender will be retroactively given to the top-ranked NOCs from a continent that hasn’t yet qualified for the Games, depending on their results at the 2022 Urban Cycling World Championships, if not all continents are represented after the results of the OQS.
