July is coming to an end and we will have plenty of surprises in store. The opportunity to take stock of the various international rankings, who have also evolved a lot.
Julian Alaphilippe strengthens his number status 1 global
French, author of a superb Tour de France, scored a lot of points in those three weeks, thus strengthening its first place. Alejandro Valverde, 9e of the Great Loop, manages to slip into 2nd place, in front of the unfortunate Jakob Fuglsang, forced to abandon following a fall. The beautiful operation is to be attributed to Thibaut Pinot, which is ranked 4th in the world thanks to its victory at the top of the Tourmalet in particular. Egan Bernal, winner of the Tour only 22 years, already in 6th place.
Annemiek Van Vleuten domine toujours
Female side, the Giro Rosa will also have somewhat reshuffled the hierarchy within the world elite. If Annemiek Van Vleuten manages to keep the lead thanks to her victory in the general classification, Marianne Vos is seriously threatening her first place, with its 4 success in the Italian event, with a victory over La Course by Le Tour.
