CeramicSpeed is just wrapping up a series of group rides on Zwift, but tomorrow is the first big event of their race series. With nearly 1000 riders already signed up, this is going to be a wild race!
The CeramicSpeed Race Series is a rather unique series in the world of Zwift, as the first race is a qualifier for a series of closed races which follow.
Along the way there are opportunities to unlock the CeramicSpeed kit, win prizes, and become a CeramicSpeed Ambassador. Details below!
Race Series Structure
The series begins with tomorrow’s qualifier race on the Out and Back Again route. This race “divides the pack” between those who will get to continue on into the Elite Closed Races, and those who can only race the open events.
- Top 100 A-category finishers from the qualifier race will be invited to participate in the Elite Closed Race #2
- Top 50 finishers from race #2 will be invited to participate in the Elite Closed Race #3
- Top 25 finishers from race #3 will be invited to participate in the final race, Elite Closed Race #4
Separate closed race are being held for men and women.
If you don’t make it past the qualifier, there is an open series of races available to all which mirrors the elite closed races. These are already on the Zwift calendar.

Become an Ambassador
CeramicSpeed is on the lookout for potential ambassadors in this Zwift series. They say, “we’re on the lookout for some true virtual racers that can help us explore new business opportunities within the virtual world of cycling as well as get involved in product testing of our components directed at e-cycling.”
If that sounds fun to you, be sure to participate in the race series in a way that makes CeramicSpeed recognize you! You don’t have to win the races, but you have to show how you’d be a valuable partner to CeramicSpeed on social media and within Zwift.
