Team BikeExchange - Jayco and Arkéa Samsic head towards opposite directions in UCI points ranking
CyclingThursday, 19 May 2022 at 08:30
Alpecin-Fenix have this week announced their application to World Tour status from 2023 onwards. This confirms the dangerous position of the lower World Tour teams, in which Team BikeExchange - Jayco are slowly falling into with the lack of points they've been scoring this season.
With the new UCI points update from Raúl Banqueri, it is possible to observe - as mentioned - that Arkéa Samsic has stormed away from the battle and is in a relatively safe position towards World Tour promotion. With Hugo Hofstetter's win at Tro-Bro Léon where the French team heavily scored points, they have risen to 12th place in the UCI points ranking, more than 2600 points ahead of Lotto Soudal.
On the opposite side of the spectrum, the lack of points Team BikeExchange - Jayco are scoring are having them on a dangerous position, now within range of a 1000 points of Lotto Soudal and Israel - Premier Tech who are slowly catching up to the Australian team. EF Education-EasyPost and Cofidis also remain on an unsafe position, but ahead of the teams mentioned above.
With the Giro d'Italia final results points to be added, changes are to be expected at the end of the month. However, from all these five teams only Cofidis' Guillaume Martin has gotten himself in the current Top10, as the likes of Simon Yates and Hugh Carthy have failed to resist the opening stages and are at the time being 15th and 24th in the overall classification.

- Just making the note that it’s actually closer to 120 because most of it is consumed in the first 4 hrs, not evenly across 5 hrs up until the finish.crharnishphd04-12-2025

- It's not a big blow for Pogacar. Today, Pogacar relies on a close, increasingly Slovenian circle of experts. Among them, the central figure is his longtime friend Ziga Jerman, who took on the role of masseur in 2025. Jerman has known Pogačar since before his global fame, when they cycled together at the Ljubljana club Rog, so Elguezabal’s departure does not pose a threat for Pogi but rather marks the end of a very successful chapter. UAE will have to fill the gap in its professional staff, but for Pogi, this departure will not play an important role.NikkoNicco04-12-2025
- OK, enough of this BS. No one went to college or university from kindergarten. First, Remco must graduate from high school with excellent results to meet with the professor Pogacar in university and to be in same room with him. But you see, Pogi the Great also has a PhD (doctorate in cycling). In 2026, I want to see that success from Remco in high school, because I haven't seen it in these 7 years.NikkoNicco04-12-2025

Relegation battle update: Arkéa breaks the game in the Tro-Bro Léon with 4 riders in the top7. They have practically secured the promotion. Lotto is still on a roll and are getting closer and closer to BikeExchange, which is looking pretty bad.
