There are a few different styles of racing on Zwift:
Zwift Races: The most common type of competition on Zwift and a verified classic. All riders start together, and the objective is simply to be first over the finish line after a certain number of laps or distance, depending on the course.
Points Races: A format that features various sprint or climb arches along the route where you can earn points for finishing the segment first or being the fastest on the segment. The aim is to gain as many points as possible before the finish line. Our community members lead many points races and will have details in the event descriptions, so be sure to read them thoroughly to have the best experience possible!
Individual Time Trials: Just you against the clock. These events are set over a fixed distance, usually on time-trial-specific bikes and with no draft effects. The goal is to ride the distance as fast as possible, with the shortest time winning.
Team Time Trials: A spin on the individual time trial, this format requires teams of Zwifters—usually five to six—to work together to ride a fixed distance as quickly as possible.
Criteriums: Also known as crits, these are raced on short circuits with multiple laps, usually on a flatter course. This is where the name ‘Crit City’ comes from.
Chase Races: A format in which a group of riders set off first, with progressively faster rider groups setting off at set intervals afterward. The goal? Getting to the finish first. Riders up front must work together to avoid getting caught by the riders behind, while the riders behind try to catch and pass as many competitors in front of them as possible.
