The Mexican skipped these recent fixtures, which cost him against the classics specialists. Even so, his consistency keeps him in a privileged position and he remains one of the most reliable names of the year.<\/p>\n<p>The big mover is Mathieu van der Poel, up to third. His level across the classics, combined with constant presence in the decisive phases, already puts him on 1,780 points. Very close is Remco Evenepoel, fourth, consolidating his growth on this terrain too, which further broadens his competitive profile.<\/p>\n<p>One of the most striking rises is Tobias Lund Andresen\u2019s, now fifth after climbing more than 50 places. His consistency in the Flemish races confirms his breakout weeks ago was no fluke. Just behind sits Wout van Aert, sixth, back among the best after his fourth place in Flanders, banking key points.<\/p>\n<p>Tom Pidcock holds seventh. The Briton loses some prominence versus recent weeks, but stays in the Top 10 thanks to a strong start to the season. More surprising is Mauro Schmid, up to eighth after steady scoring in stage races.<\/p>\n<p>The big loser is <a href=\"https:\/\/es.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Jonas_Vingegaard\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Jonas Vingegaard<\/a>, who drops from second to ninth. Skipping the classics cost him ground against specialists in this format. Jasper Philipsen rounds out the Top 10, still adding thanks to his speed and consistency in one-day races.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, the standings reflect a clear shift: the classics have seized control of the ranking and boosted explosive, versatile riders. With the Ardennes and the Grand Tours on the horizon, the balance could shift again.<\/p>\n<p>UCI WorldTour Ranking 2026\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>*points from 2026 only<\/p>\n<p>OrderRiderTeamPoints 1  POGA\u010cAR Tadej  UAE Team Emirates &#8211;

Unlike the 2026 ranking, where the Classics have triggered sharp swings, consistency in Grand Tours, Monuments, and week-long stage races weighs more heavily here.<\/p>\n<p>Tadej Pogacar remains firmly on top with 11,610 points. The Slovenian dominates thanks to his ability to deliver all season, combining wins in Grand Tours, Classics, and one-week races. His lead over second place is substantial, underlining his consistency across the past twelve months.<\/p>\n<p>Jonas Vingegaard holds second with 6,885 points. The Dane continues to lean on his Grand Tour output, which keeps him on the podium despite a lighter presence in the Classics. Isaac del Toro completes the top three, his breakthrough now consolidated in this broader ranking as well.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"280\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/jonas-vingegaard-69d6adaf726cf.JPG@webp.webp\" class=\"w-auto h-auto\" alt=\"Jonas Vingegaard\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Jonas Vingegaard<\/p>\n<p>Fourth place goes to Remco Evenepoel, who sustains a very solid line across all terrains.

They embody different profiles: Almeida more focused on stage races, Pedersen on Classics and sprints.<\/p>\n<p>The top 10 is rounded out by three riders closely tied to the Classics: Mathieu van der Poel (8th), Wout van Aert (9th), and Jasper Philipsen (10th). Their presence confirms the weight of one-day races in the overall count, without dislodging the Grand Tour specialists from the lead.<\/p>\n<p>UCI Ranking last 12 monthsOrderRiderTeamPoints 1  POGA\u010cAR Tadej  UAE Team Emirates &#8211; XRG  11610  2  VINGEGAARD Jonas  Team Visma | Lease a Bike  6885  3  DEL TORO Isaac  UAE Team Emirates &#8211; XRG  6789  4  EVENEPOEL Remco  Red Bull &#8211; BORA &#8211; hansgrohe  5626  5  PIDCOCK Thomas  Pinarello Q36.5 Pro Cycling Team  4320  6  ALMEIDA Jo\u00e3o  UAE Team Emirates &#8211; XRG  4082  7  PEDERSEN Mads  Lidl &#8211; Trek  3945  8  VAN DER POEL Mathieu  Alpecin-Premier Tech  3693  9  VAN AERT Wout  Team Visma | Lease a Bike  3560  10  PHILIPSEN Jasper  Alpecin-Premier Tech  3174  11  DE LIE Arnaud  Lotto Intermarch\u00e9  3007  12  VINE Jay  UAE Team Emirates &#8211; XRG  2788  13  HEALY Ben  EF Education &#8211; EasyPost  2690  14  CICCONE Giulio  Lidl &#8211; Trek  2611  15  VAUQUELIN K\u00e9vin  INEOS Grenadiers  2578  16  ONLEY Oscar  INEOS Grenadiers  2565  17  GALL Felix  Decathlon CMA CGM Team  2543  18  ANDRESEN Tobias Lund  Decathlon CMA CGM Team  2514  19  SCARONI Christian  XDS Astana Team  2495  20  LIPOWITZ Florian  Red Bull &#8211; BORA &#8211; hansgrohe  2467  21  MARTINEZ Lenny  Bahrain &#8211; Victorious  2443  22  GR\u00c9GOIRE Romain  Groupama &#8211; FDJ United  2291  23  SKJELMOSE Mattias  Lidl &#8211; Trek  2230  24  MCNULTY Brandon  UAE Team Emirates &#8211; XRG  2223  25  PELLIZZARI Giulio  Red Bull &#8211; BORA &#8211; hansgrohe  2178  26  SCHMID Mauro  Team Jayco AlUla  2119  27  MAGNIER Paul  Soudal Quick-Step  2047  28  JORGENSON Matteo  Team Visma | Lease a Bike  1944  29  JOHANNESSEN Tobias Halland  Uno-X Mobility  1904  30  YATES Simon  1867  31  CHRISTEN Jan  UAE Team Emirates &#8211; XRG  1863  32  SEIXAS Paul  Decathlon CMA CGM Team  1849  33  GIRMAY Biniam  NSN Cycling Team  1817  34  CARAPAZ Richard  EF Education &#8211; EasyPost  1796  35  STORER Michael  Tudor Pro Cycling Team  1735  36  GROENEWEGEN Dylan  Unibet Rose Rockets  1702  37  BRENNAN Matthew  Team Visma | Lease a Bike  1701  38  ROGLI\u010c Primo\u017e  Red Bull &#8211; BORA &#8211; hansgrohe  1673  39  BERNAL Egan  INEOS Grenadiers  1644  40  TIBERI Antonio  Bahrain &#8211; Victorious  1620  41  KOOIJ Olav  Decathlon CMA CGM Team  1613  42  MEEUS Jordi  Red Bull &#8211; BORA &#8211; hansgrohe  1580  43  VERMEERSCH Florian  UAE Team Emirates &#8211; XRG  1576  44  MILAN Jonathan  Lidl &#8211; Trek  1529  45  JEANNI\u00c8RE Emilien  TotalEnergies  1511  46  GEE-WEST Derek  Lidl &#8211; Trek  1485  47  ARANBURU Alex  Cofidis  1476  48  AYUSO Juan  Lidl &#8211; Trek  1468  49  STRONG Corbin  NSN Cycling Team  1455  50  ALAPHILIPPE Julian  Tudor Pro Cycling Team  1427 <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"&#13; Del Toro slips to second, but retains a very solid tally (1,839).
