UCI Rankings update - After Vingegaard and Evenepoel crash out of Itzulia, Tadej Pogacar remains in the lead: Jasper Philipsen and Juan Ayuso soar up the rankings

This week's UCI rankings update feature a steep ascent by the likes of Jasper Philipsen and Juan Ayuso who have both scored massive points as Paris-Roubaix and Itzulia Basque Country respectively. Tadej Pogacar remains at the top of the charts as his two closest rivals have crashed and got injured badly.

*Note: For understanding, the rankings are calculated by the past 52 weeks exactly. Meaning, riders who raced in the previous season may still be in the ranking, and that the points conquered in a certain race will disappear from the tally exactly 1 years after they finished.

Mathieu van der Poel has won Paris-Roubaix but remains in 7th spot, but his teammate Jasper Philipsen climbed from 9th to 4th after another set of strong results. Juan Ayuso up to 9th and Aleksandr Vlasov in 13th are the other two riders who have climbed up the ranks quite a lot over this last update.

Tadej Pogacar continues in the lead with 6658 points, in front of Jonas Vingegaard who has 5970 and Remco Evenepoel who has 5697. These two riders are the closest to the Slovenian, but both have crashed out of Itzulia Basque Country.

Mads Pedersen remains in 5th place dropping down one, Primoz Roglic is now sixth losing two positions... Adam Yates and Mattias Skjelmose are the other two riders in the Top10 who sit 8th and 10th respectively.
