\nThe aforementioned Red Bull also enjoyed a superb Tour de France<\/a>, moving to 17,653 points and opening a gap of more than 2,000 over Team Visma | Lease a Bike<\/a>, still 3rd but without GC points after Jonas Vingegaard abandoned. With Remco Evenepoel\u2019s 2nd overall, including two stage wins, the tally is more than satisfactory.<\/p>\n

Decathlon CMA CGM Team, fronted by Paul Seixas, who debuted at the Tour at just 19, holds 4th in the UCI Ranking with 14,407 points. Notably, they are closing on Visma, now only 800 points back. Seixas himself finished 4th overall, a historic result as the best Tour de France placing by a 19-year-old since 1903. Olav Kooij capped it with a stage win.<\/p>\n

The standings continue with Lidl-Trek steady in 5th on 12,849 points. The American team placed two riders in the overall top 10: Mattias Skjelmose (6th) and Juan Ayuso (7th). They also celebrated Mads Pedersen\u2019s stage win on day four. The Dane secured the green jersey as well, adding 210 more UCI points.<\/p>\n

XDS Astana Team, though not a leading protagonist at the Tour de France, remains 6th in the Ranking with 10,494 points. In fact, their best returns came in parallel with back-to-back wins by Thomas Silva at the Cl\u00e1sica de Ordizia and the Cl\u00e1sica de Castilla y Le\u00f3n the very next day. Once again, the Kazakh team mines the smaller races to piece together a strong season.<\/p>\n

Bahrain Victorious is the last team currently above 10,000 points, sitting 7th. Their standout in the Tour was Lenny Mart\u00ednez, who finished 5th overall, a memorable result for the Frenchman. Behind them, Netcompany INEOS<\/a> is 8th despite a deeply underwhelming Grande Boucle. No stages and no GC fight, and as a result, Alpecin-Premier Tech is right on their wheel.<\/p>\n

Alpecin sits 9th, just under 100 points off INEOS. The Belgian squad delivered a superb Tour de France with two stage wins for Mathieu van der Poel, one for Jasper Philipsen, and Philipsen\u2019s runner-up spot in the points classification. It\u2019s an excellent platform for the final third of the season, especially after their slow start to 2026.<\/p>\n

Soudal Quick-Step rounds out the top 10. The Wolfpack more than delivered at the Tour despite Ilan Van Wilder\u2019s withdrawal: three stage wins by Tim Merlier are an outstanding return. On top of that, Valentin Paret-Peintre added further points by taking 3rd after a thrilling battle in the mountains classification.<\/p>\n

As it stands currently, Pinarello – Q36.5 Pro Cycling Team (15th) and Cofidis (18th) are in position to be promoted to the World Tour. Groupama – FDJ (20th) and Team Picnic PostNL (30th) are provisionally in a position of relegation, with the latter specially being completely out of range of all other World Tour teams.<\/p>\n
