GC Power Ranking

[Roku]

I usually defend the PCS list for having a method, but I cannot figure out how they have Vingo above Poggi


(vingo has 14 races, pog has 9)

PCS system is as good as a cat randomly picking photos. Every ranking they have is utter garbage, starting with their All Time Ranking in which Pascal Ackermann was considered one of the Top200 best cyclist all time.

Bonus: tadej pocagar

That's a lot of names that are clearly bellow Jorgensen in GC power.
People forget he won back to back Paris-Nice and got a top10 in last year's Tour (while being a domestique).

Granted he showed poor form in the 2nd and 3rd weeks in this year's Tour, because of ilness. But in top shape he's a very good pick.

Here's a list riders that have actually won a WT level stage race this year.

Date Race Winner Class
21.01 - 26.01 Santos Tour Down Under NARVÁEZ Jhonatan 2.UWT
17.02 - 23.02 UAE Tour POGAČAR Tadej 2.UWT
09.03 - 16.03 Paris-Nice JORGENSON Matteo 2.UWT
10.03 - 16.03 Tirreno-Adriatico AYUSO Juan 2.UWT
24.03 - 30.03 Volta Ciclista a Catalunya ROGLIČ Primož 2.UWT
07.04 - 12.04 Itzulia Basque Country ALMEIDA João 2.UWT
09.05 - 01.06 Giro d'Italia YATES Simon 2.UWT
29.04 - 04.05 Tour de Romandie ALMEIDA João 2.UWT
08.06 - 15.06 Critérium du Dauphiné POGAČAR Tadej 2.UWT
15.06 - 22.06 Tour de Suisse ALMEIDA João 2.UWT
05.07 - 27.07 Tour de France POGAČAR Tadej 2.UWT

If a rider isn't on the above list that should push them far down the power ranking, at least to 8th place.

Yes, Jhonatan Narvaez should clearly be ahead of Vingegaard.

PCS ranks Pogacar 2024 as the 17th best season of al times IIRC.

 

[Blanco]

And who is the 10th rider?

Carapaz
