UAE Team Emirates crowned UCI World Tour Best Team ahead of Jumbo-Visma
CyclingThursday, 19 October 2023 at 18:00
The 2023 World Tour season has come to a close. Despite winning all 3 Grand Tours, Jumbo-Visma could not take overall victory in the UCI points race though, during the year no team has been able to better UAE Team Emirates.
With the UCI Team Rankings having reset at the start of the year, ahead of the current three-year block, UAE Team Emirates managed to tally a very impressive total of 30,958.18, giving them a narrow lead over the all-conquering Jumbo-Visma.
As you might expect, much of UAE Team Emirates' success is owed to their leader, Tadej Pogacar. The Slovenian had an incredible season despite missing out on Tour de France success, including victories at Il Lombardia, Paris-Nice, the Tour of Flanders, Fleche Wallone and the Amstel Gold Race among other wins.
Teammates Adam Yates, Joao Almeida, Marc Hirschi, Davide Formolo and Juan Ayuso, among others, have also chipped in with victories and points, helping to ensure UAE Team Emirates' overall victory.

- 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
- calling him a star in cross before he beats MVDP or WVA is also a big stretch.mij04-12-2025
- I think once he's the undisputed leader in a race, he can become more consistent than he was in the past.Ride197404-12-2025
