The organisers of the Saudi Tour have confirmed the race will return in 2022, with a date of February 1-5 adding an extra race to the early-season men’s calendar. 

The global COVID-19 pandemic and related travel restrictions have forced the organisers of the Tour Down Under and Cadel Evans Great Ocean Road Race to again cancel their WorldTour races and change the Tour Down Under to a national event.
