The big news is that the USA will host a second round of the World Cup, shortly after Cross Vegas. Speaking of which, the event that started as a sideshow to the enormous-trade-show, and only became a World Cup race last season, was voted as the best event of 2015/16.
Zeven in Germany and Fiuggi-Roma in Italy also both host World Cup races for the first time.
