The 2026 CQ Ranking Manager Thread

[Earns1985]

Out of the really popular picks, which more than 40 players have (16 riders: Seixas, C.Rodriguez, Widar, van Eetvelt, Zingle, Cosnefroy, Poole, Laporte, van Gils, S.WIlliams, P. Sanchez, Pithie, Nys, Jakobsen, AWP, D. Martinez), basically only

Laporte
Seixas
D. Martinez

are looking right now as picks, which you really regret if you don´t have them in your team. Pithie is the next close one, who one could add to this list.

Do we know, where the collective wisdom team would stand right now?
The most popular team @MADRAZO is pretty low in the standings. (place 55)

Do we know, where the collective wisdom team would stand right now?

It was in 43rd as of the most recent update, although the points scored yesterday by Pithie and Laporte might have moved it up a tad. One of our forum statisticians will probably have a better idea of this than me, but that seems unusually low.

How are you all looking at Blackmore now? Is he really not riding anything before the Ardennes?

Widar knee injury after training crash, so won't do Big Mig or Itzulia.

We were in danger of having too many days without new issues for game-relevant riders, so the CQ gods had to do something.

I struggle to understand how I have 33 riders, and only 10 of them are doing wither iztulia or Flanders, where are they all??? I am supposed to be making ground not falling further behind

Big Stan in the black already, now wait for him to injure himself horribly in RvV

Unbelievable.

The collective wisdom team has been a fringe top 10 contender, and indeed would have finished 10th on at least one occasion, in multiple seasons but never higher than that. At least as far as I can recall. This is definitely on the lower end for collective team (I don't think this iteration has earned the wisdom part of the name).
