Full respect between these two 🤝🤩 Even Mathieu Van der Poel admits he can't follow an attack from Tadej Pogačar 😲 📸 Getty Images
Liège-Bastogne-Liège concluded the week of racing in the Ardennes and by the end of it, we came out with an updated UCI ranking that features Tadej Pogacar at the top, increasing his lead due to his recent triumph, over the injured Jonas Vingegaard and Remco Evenepoel.
With the points from the Giro d'Italia disappearing from Roglic's tally next month, and with Pogacar racing it as the main contender for victory, the UAE Team Emirates rider is expected to make an even bigger jump into the lead. Jonas Vingegaard may not race the Criterium du Dauphiné and the Tour de France is at risk, so by no means is there a clear path to removing Pogacar from the lead.
