The World Tour teams continue their battle for the Top of the
UCI points charts.
UAE Team Emirates remain completely unchallenged and have extended their lead, but the remaining podium spots suffered changes.
UAE won the Vuelta a Asturias in absolute dominance, whilst at the Tour de Romandie they ended up not being able to win the overall classification but won and led the race for several days. They added almost 700 points to their tally over the past week. Decathlon AG2R won two stages in Romandie with Dorian Godon and jumped from fourth to third scoring over 300;
Lidl-Trek also scored over 250 points, a lot due to Thibau Nys' win in Romandie.
Alpecin-Deceuninck have added less than 100 points and was overtaken by the two previous teams and now sits fourth.
INEOS Grenadiers is now sixth in the standings after winning Romandie with Carlos Rodríguez, up from eighth position.
UAE's lead will grow rapidly during the Giro
It sadly, will. Good for UAE, not everyone else😆
