Update 6
Wow, we've got some massive scores in this update! Many of us doubled our point totals in the past 2 weeks, as we saw several young guns deliver solid results. But of course, we have to put the spotlight on Mathieu van der Poel, whose score shapes the rankings in this update. Of course, it's a bit unfair to compare him with the others in our game, but still, we have to remember he is a very expensive pick and a huge gamble, considering his limited road racing schedule. I'm sure some players were holding their breath after his crash in Driedaagse De Panne, but he bounced back already in his next race with a win and a handy 140 points. Add to that his 4th place on Sunday, and things are looking very good for the teams that selected him.
MADRAZO is our highest scorer, he combines 236 points from Van der Poel with solid scores from Moschetti and Lonardi, as well as a dozen or two from Alfdan De Decker and rare picks Arvid de Kleijn and Thibault Ferasse.
Nathanptz and Leadbelly share the 2nd spot on the podium of the highest scorers ranking. Interestingly, they didn't score with the same riders, although they do share Moschetti and Dewulf. Nathanptz adds points from De Decker and Lonardi and a big 175 points from unique pick Cees Bol. Leadbelly is one of those with Van der Poel, and added a couple small scores from Barnabas Peak and Cristian Muñoz.
In the highest movers ranking we see a couple big leaps. Leadbelly, 2nd highest scorer of the week jumps 23 spots to 11th place, which he now shares with another of the big movers, AupaPyama. He moves up 22 spots thanks to points from Van der Poel, rare pick Pierre Barbier and a couple others. Third highest mover spot is shared by this update's highest scorer MADRAZO and Koronin. Koronin got points from Van der Poel as well as Barbier and unique pick Magnus Klaris.
These big movements resulted in quite a few changes to the top of our overall ranking. In first is now
fauniera, who climbed 5 places.
Nathanptz and
MADRAZO round out the new podium. Interesting to note, that MADRAZO scored almost 4/5ths of his current score in the last 2 weeks! A bit lower in the top-10 we find search, who's jumped from 16th to 7th.
Of course, when there are winners there are also losers, and we see quite a few tumble down or even out of the top-10. Most notably, our Spanish friends, former 1st place Kryvo, Ludwigzgz, Jon Ezeitza and Josedin all drop several places.
