UCI Rankings Update | Enric Mas drags Movistar out of relegation zone, Cofidis in danger
CyclingMonday, 12 September 2022 at 12:28
This was a key week for everyone involved in the promotion and relegation battle, as the Canadian classics, the Tour of Britain and most importantly the Vuelta a Espana have delivered meaningful points, with Movistar Team standing out and leaping four places due to Enric Mas' performance.
According to Raúl Banqueri's new report, after a disappointing season which included countless crashes, the Spaniard was finally able to perform at his best level, and brought in hundreds and hundreds of points for the Spanish team from the Vuelta a Espana, with his final second place alone bringing 680 points. Movistar was expected to climb up the rankings, but have gone through all four teams that stood directly ahead of them until the last update. They now sit almost 1300 points ahead of Lotto Soudal, in a rather safe position.
With Canada and the Vuelta taken into consideration, both EF Education-EasyPost and Team BikeExchange - Jayco had heavy weeks with over 600 points scored, bringing them over Cofidis which was the team who scored the less and is now in 18th spot, directly ahead of Lotto Soudal by 750 points exactly - who have today took 200 meaningful points from the GP de Fourmies with Caleb Ewan taking the win. Israel - Premier Tech sit almost 700 points behind the Belgian team and are running out of hopes for maintenance.
Arkéa Samsic did not perform at the Vuelta, but the presence of Warren Barguil, Matis Louvel and Amaury Capiot in the classics have seen them keep their 15th place, maintaining their chances of promoting to World Tour likely, with a more fitting calendar in the final month of the season.
