It’s almost showtime 🇮🇹 #Giro #WeAreUAE
UCI Rankings Team Update | Lidl-Trek and Decathlon AG2R jump to second and third as Alpecin-Deceunick drops; UAE Team Emirates increases lead
CyclingTuesday, 30 April 2024 at 20:30
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.

- That’s the most stupid thing I’ve read for a long time, did you not go to school and learn even the most basic physics? Aero depends on one thing only, drag, drag depends speed and the relationship is squared and apart from maybe at zero or the speed of sound or due to side winds that relationship is valid at all speeds, it dies not “suddenly” start at a magic number. Very simply, the faster you go the more the effect becomes important. If you think 25km/h is needed to have noticeable effects you’re delusional, athletic WR are cancelled as soon as winds top 2m/s that’s 7.2km/h, why because the assistance is already too important at that speed and the times prove it. You don’t even consider wind which can significantly increase the effective speed for aerodynamics and you underestimate speed of climbs, 6% is ridden more at 30 than 25km/h, a speed at which early generation high rims were considered to have more advantages than disadvantages. And finally, as in normal races you can’t just switch bikes according to terrain, it’s pretty pointless to discuss climbs as a separate situation, the aero will have justified itself plenty during the rest of the ride.Mistermaumau21-12-2024
- If you look at how much TP progressed in that 1 1/2 years you can no longer say that’s nothing. If Remco improves as much he’s a challenger!Mistermaumau21-12-2024
- Froome wishing to ride the Vuelta...he won't even be selected for the team!frieders320-12-2024
- Keep telling yourself that Remco but you not only have Tadeg to beat but Jonas!frieders320-12-2024
- Seems farfetched - I agree. Mas has beaten him once. Giro d'Emillia I think - 2022mobk20-12-2024
- Barring injuries, by the time Pogacar's dominance fads there will be lots of new young talent. Pogacar is about 1 1/2 years older than Remco. That's nothing.Sweep20-12-2024
- I actually don’t find that too impressive. In my later forties I did similar figures for a 3.5% gradient as a total nobody with no wind assistance. Am sure there’s margin for improvement there, especially looking at all the names on that list.Mistermaumau20-12-2024
- Jonas', was 6 years agospock12320-12-2024
- The race where he overnight suddenly turned nuclear after being packfodder at best for several years. His Sky days after that Vuelta and Pogačar’s last season shall remain the darkest post Lance stuff cycling has witnessed. Good riddance Froome.
UltimateOpportunist20-12-2024 - Finishing the Vuelta seems to be a reasonably attainable goal. Getting on the team to do that will be the more difficult challenge.
