CyclingFriday, 14 March 2025 at 20:00
Since the last update, we have had Le Samyn, Trofeo Laigueglia, Strade Bianche and a few Belgian classics adding points to the UCI Rankings and it has made for a big change. In 2025, now it is Tadej Pogacar who has scored the most points after winning the Italian classic in the gravel, defending his title successfully.
You can check the previous update. Tadej Pogacar scored another big set of points with his Strade Bianche victory and is now officially the rider with the most UCI points scored in 2025. He overtook Christian Scaroni who crashed out of the Italian race, and has suffered injuries as a result. Tom Pidcock, and Pello Bilbao have entered this year's best scorers due to their results in the Italian classic as well.

UCI Riders Ranking; Date: 14/03/2025
*This ranking represents the UCI points scored over the past 12 months.
In the year-long ranking Pogacar's tally didn't actually change, since he repeated the exact same win as last year. The main change towards the top is Mathieu van der Poel after his win at Le Samyn - his first day of the season. All top places remain the same, with Remco Evenepoel and Jasper Philipsen still ahead of the Dutchman, but now with less of a margin (which could close in the coming month).
Pello Bilbao, Tim Wellens, Magnus Cort Nielsen, Neilson Powless, Milan Fretin, Ben Healy and Michael Storer were the riders inside the Top100 whose tally increased by over 100 points. Most of these came from Strade Bianche but Storer's points came from Laigueglia whilst the sprinter Fretin added his from the GP Criquielion and the GP Jean-Pierre Monseré in Belgium.

- That made me smile Suipedali. Nice one!Cyclingsbestfan14-03-2025
- Even if Pogi has 5s on top of Poggio, he's getting caught on descent unfortunately. And it's extremely unlikely that he will have morevappaxbipmv14-03-2025
- If Pogi can drop him, then he will winabstractengineer14-03-2025
- In that sense, those two have less in common than the link you could make between demonstrators, right handers, Hinault and Merckx.Mistermaumau14-03-2025
- "He apparently thought it was completely fine." Nothing broken and no concussion, that's as completely fine as it gets in cyclingvappaxbipmv14-03-2025
- Better safe than sorry. At least his injuries are a lot less severe than they were last year.
santiagobenites14-03-2025 - Well spotted :-)Mistermaumau14-03-2025
- One thing Jonas Vingegaard has in common with Hinault is that they are moaners, although I couldn't see Jonas giving a demonstrator a right hander!Suipedali14-03-2025
- They are surprisingly rare on the pro circuit, around our area, one in four races finishes of with a really steep 500m climb at the end.Mistermaumau14-03-2025
- Give him an uphill sprint, then he may win against pure sprinters.
