Fourth belongs to Switzerland\u2019s Mauro Schmid, one of the ranking\u2019s revelations, solid on 1,085 points. Just behind, in fifth, Dutchman Dylan Groenewegen surges with 1,080 points, confirming outstanding form after stringing together three high-profile wins in short order to become one of the peloton\u2019s sharpest sprinters.<\/p>\n
The Top 10 is rounded out by riders blending consistency and momentum. Dane Tobias Lund Andresen is sixth with 950 points, followed by Italian Christian Scaroni (896) and compatriot Antonio Tiberi (895), both steady in this early campaign. Ninth is American Matteo Jorgenson (890), with Frenchman Romain Gr\u00e9goire closing the Top 10 on 861 points.<\/p>\n
Beyond the first ten, the ranking features spectacular moves. Notable are Andrea Vendrame, up 212 places to 19th, and Daniel Felipe Mart\u00ednez, who climbs 288 spots to 26th. Equally striking is Georg Steinhauser\u2019s leap of 600 positions to enter the Top 30.<\/p>\n
Conversely, some favourites have lost significant ground. Belgian Remco Evenepoel slips to 15th, while Denmark\u2019s Jonas Vingegaard drops to 18th. More pronounced are the falls of Portugal\u2019s Jo\u00e3o Almeida, now 53rd, and Spain\u2019s Juan Ayuso, down to 56th.<\/p>\n
Also notable is the slide of Dutchman Mathieu van der Poel, down to 13th after not scoring heavily enough this past week, and Belgian Wout van Aert, now 23rd, in a quieter start to the season than expected.<\/p>\n
Among teams, UAE Team Emirates – XRG continues to dominate thanks to points from Del Toro, Poga\u010dar and Jan Christen. Team Jayco AlUla also impresses with strong Top 20 presence, while Bahrain – Victorious has several riders well placed.<\/p>\n

The ranking for the last twelve months confirms the absolute dominance of Slovenian Tadej Pogacar, who leads by a commanding margin thanks to his consistency in Grand Tours, Classics and, most recently, his victory at Milano\u2013Sanremo. His ability to score across all terrains keeps him as the undisputed reference.<\/p>\n
In second place is Isaac del Toro, whose breakthrough has been one of the stories of the year. Although he did not race Sanremo, his earlier haul of results keeps him in a privileged position.<\/p>\n
Jonas Vingegaard rounds out the podium, with a stronger focus on stage races, which explains his solidity but also a certain gap to Pogacar across such a varied calendar.<\/p>\n
Dane Mads Pedersen (4th) and Belgian Remco Evenepoel (5th) reflect opposing profiles: the former highly competitive in Classics like those held this week (GP Denain or Bredene Koksijde Classic), and the latter more focused on peak targets, which has cost him one place.<\/p>\n
The latest mover inside the top 10 is Tom Pidcock, now sixth, boosted by his runner-up spot at Sanremo and his activity at the Volta a Catalunya. His versatility lets him score in all kinds of races.<\/p>\n
The top 10 is completed by familiar names such as Joao Almeida (7th), very consistent in stage races; Mathieu van der Poel (8th), penalised by a lighter recent schedule; Wout van Aert (9th), always competitive in the Classics; and Jay Vine (10th), who closes the group thanks to his consistency.<\/p>\n
