The standings for the Vuelta a Espana look like this:
GC 1st: Nairo Quintana
GC 2nd: Chris Froome
GC 3rd: Esteban Chaves
GC 4th: Alberto Contador
GC 5th: Andrew Talansky
KOM: Omar Fraile
Points: Fabio Felline
Young Rider: Simon Yates
Bonus 1: Top 25 (Where will Valverde finish - Top 50/25/10/5/3/1/Abandon or other?)
Bonus 2: BMC (Which team will win the team classification?)
Chaves's 3rd place finish gives 15 points to Jandal and welker. No other points were scored from the GC positions.
Omar Fraille gave 40 points to Jandal, who also picked Simon Yates as the best U25 rider! A very successful outing here for Jandal.
trekbmc picked up 40 points for correctly picking Simon Yates as the U25 classification winner.
None of Marcovdw, emre or AbhishekLFC scored any points!
A low scoring Vuelta after a particularly high-scoring TDF.
Here is the points table for the Vuelta a Espana:
| Name | Points | | jandal | 95 | | trekbmc | 40 | | welker3257 | 15 | | AbhishekLFC | 0 | | Marcovdw | 0 | | emre99 | 0 |
The updated overall standings are as follows
| Name | Races Entered | Bonuses | Total Points | | welker3257 | 6 | 30 | 210 | | jandal7 | 7 | 120 | 200 | | Marcovdw | 7 | 60 | 175 | | trekbmc | 5 | 80 | 135 | | AbhishekLFC | 7 | 60 | 125 | | emre99 | 7 | 20 | 120 | | Luxemburger | 2 | 30 | 95 | | Eden95 | 1 | 30 | 70 | | namtheman928 | 2 | 10 | 40 | | The Schleck Fan | 2 | | 40 | | Croatia14 | 1 | 10 | 30 |
Jandal moves up from 5th to 2nd after his convincing win in this race, adn is now just 10 points off the top. trekbmc rises three spots to sit at 4th place. The worst hit after this round is AbhishekLFC and emre, who slide down two positions each after their zero scores.

The podium in the GP de Quebec looks like this:
1)Peter Sagan
2)Greg van Avermaet
3)Anthony Roux
The podium in the GP de Montreal looks like this:
1)Greg van Avermaet
2)Peter Sagan
3)Diego Ulissi
The correct answer to the Bonus Question (for 10 points) - Who will have the best average finish position in these races? is Peter Sagan and Greg van Avermaet (either answer gets you 15 points)
Only three participants for this set of races in Canada!
All three participants had picked Sagan and GVA for Quebec and get equal points for that. Marcovdw picked GVA, Jandal picked Sagan while AbhishekLFC picked Ulissi for Montreal and they pick up points for 1st, 2nd and 3rd positions respectively.
Both Jandal and Marcovdw pick up points for the bonus question with their picks of Sagan and GVA respectively.
Here is the points update for the Canadian races:
| Name | Points | | Marcovdw | 55 | | jandal | 55 | | AbhishekLFC | 35 |
The updated overall standings are as follows
| Name | Races Entered | Bonuses | Total Points | | jandal7 | 8 | 135 | 255 | | Marcovdw | 8 | 75 | 230 | | welker3257 | 6 | 30 | 210 | | AbhishekLFC | 8 | 60 | 160 | | trekbmc | 5 | 80 | 135 | | emre99 | 7 | 20 | 120 | | Luxemburger | 2 | 30 | 95 | | Eden95 | 1 | 30 | 70 | | namtheman928 | 2 | 10 | 40 | | The Schleck Fan | 2 | | 40 | | Croatia14 | 1 | 10 | 30 |
There is a change at the top as Jandal takes the lead. Marcovdw also takes advantage of welker's continued absence and moves into 2nd place. AbhishekLFC takes back 4th place from trekbmc after losing it in the Vuelta. The participants in these two races become the only ones to have participated in all races so far!

The podium in Il Lombardia looks like this:
1)Esteban Chaves
2)Diego Rosa
3)Rigoberto Uran
The correct answer to the Bonus Question (for 10 points) - Will a former GT winner win Il Lombardia? is No (for 15 points)
Three participants again for this race.
Jandal runs away with this particular race, having picked both Chaves and Uran to finish in the top 3. His prediction of 3 Colombians making up the podium comes up short. Both Marcovdw and AbhishekLFC had Uran in their picks. All three participants answered the bonus question correctly.
Here is the points update for this race:
| Name | Points | | jandal | 65 | | Marcovdw | 25 | | AbhishekLFC | 25 |
The updated overall standings are as follows
| Name | Races Entered | Bonuses | Total Points | | jandal7 | 8 | 150 | 320 | | Marcovdw | 8 | 90 | 255 | | welker3257 | 6 | 30 | 210 | | AbhishekLFC | 8 | 75 | 185 | | trekbmc | 5 | 80 | 135 | | emre99 | 7 | 20 | 120 | | Luxemburger | 2 | 30 | 95 | | Eden95 | 1 | 30 | 70 | | namtheman928 | 2 | 10 | 40 | | The Schleck Fan | 2 | | 40 | | Croatia14 | 1 | 10 | 30 |
Jandal further extends his lead while Marcovdw consolidates his second place. AbhishekLFC moves closer to 3rd place with welker's continuing absence.
Only the World Championships left after this.
