The Sheffield Grand Prix will decide the 2026 Lloyds National Circuit Series titles on 22 July, while also offering valuable Rapha Super-League points. The city-centre criterium has been reversed for this year, making riders climb the Surrey Street cobbles shortly before the finish and potentially altering how both races unfold.

In the open series, Callum Laborde leads defending champion Tom Armstrong by 12 points, with 50 available to the winner; Armstrong needs to outscore Laborde by 13 to retain the title outright. In the women’s series, absent leader Meg Barker is 20 points ahead of Isabel Mayes, who needs 20th place or better to take the title; both races last 50 minutes, carry £2,000 prize funds, and are free to watch.
