2012 UCI Track World Championships for Juniors

The UCI Juniors Track World Championships 2012 ( UCI Juniors Track World Championships 2012 ) found from 22 to 26 August at the ILT Velodrome in New Zealand Invercargill instead.

The velodrome has a 250 meter long track and has a 43.2 degree curve superelevation. The cycle race track was planned by the Münster architect Ralph Schürmann and executed by Calder Stewart . In May 2006, New Zealand's only indoor cycling track opened.

There were around 200 athletes from 23 nations at the start, none of them from Germany.

Three new junior world records were set on the first day of the competition: Lidija Pluschnikowa and Darja Schmeljowa set new records in the qualification of the team sprint and again in the final with 34.155 seconds. In the team pursuit of the juniors, the Australians Georgia Baker , Taylah Jennings and Kelsey Robson set a new best time in 3: 24.372 minutes with an improvement of more than one second. Another world record of the Australian men's team sprint could not be recognized because of a faulty replacement.

The most successful athlete in the world championships was the Russian rider Darja Schmeljowa, who not only won four gold medals in all short-term disciplines, but also set new world records in the 500-meter time trial and team sprint.
