But, if the weather forecast is accurate, there will be no need to shorten the race. It's a non-story at the moment.
The Worlds is all about money, it's the main revenue stream for the UCI so they'll go to wherever is prepared to pay. It's also the World Championships, so why shouldn't it go to a Gulf state, or Africa or anywhere else that's prepared to host it?

So they may shorten the Worlds course to a mere 100k. They may as well stick the sprinters in a scratch race on the track.
Fucking Qatar and it's money getting top sporting events, despite it's disgusting human right's record, and then ruining them.
