Menchov leads UCI rankings, and a change atop the national rankings.

• Results

Denis Menchov vaulted to the top of the UCI World Rankings this week, a position he owes entirely to his performance at the Giro d’Italia. Menchov had no world ranking points for the season prior to the Giro, but his overall win, two stage wins, and other top stage finishes earned him 218 points, surpassing Germany’s Hienrich Haussler, who had been leading thanks to his top finishes in the spring classics.

Allan Davis also earned some points at the Giro with some stage podium appearances, and those points combined with this overall win at the Tour Down Under, puts him in second place.

Cervelo TestTeam has taken over the lead of the team rankings from Quick Step, and Italy passed Spain for the lead of the national rankings, thanks to the many points earned by Italian riders in their national tour.
