GWFlanders_4
Apr 5th, 11. With his win at the Tour of Flanders, Nick Nuyens debuts in the UCI World Tour Rankings in 9th place, and Fabian Cancellara and Tom Boonen move into the Top 5.
The Tour of Flanders may be a one day race rather than a multi-stage event, but the 100 UCI points on offer to the winner are the same number as received by the General Classification winner of the Tour Down Under, Paris-Nice, Tirreno Adriatico, Tour of Switzerland and more.
He did not quite manage back to back wins this year, but Cancellara (Leopard Trek's) 3rd place gave him enough points to move from 9th to 3rd on the World Rankings behind Matt Goss (HTC Highroad) and Michele Scarponi (Lampre ISD) who remain within one point of each other.
It was Saxo Bank's Nick Nuyens who won the top prize and the maximum UCI points at Flanders. The Belgian debuts in the rankings in 9th, while 2nd placed Sylvain Chavanel joined the rankings at #14. Tom Boonen (Quickstep) placed 4th at Flanders which gave him enough points to bounce into the Top 5 of the World Rankings, he is now 4th, up from 12th.
HTC Highroad remain at the top of the team's ranking, and Australia top the nation's ranking.
