I feel a bit sorry to be back for rankings so soon after the good work by Aquarius and the inofficial ranking. But if you want to have the newest ranking including most recent classics, here you go.
Missing still some races such as Romandie, Cheshire, Besseges etc.
February
2 HC events where Repsol dominated in Middle East followed by Popo4ever while Generali took the win in Pologne with Novatek and Indosat scoring decent as well.
PTHC in Omloop was a great race for the Minions with Repsol and Lierse showing themselves while Hallstatt was a great score for Popo4ever as also Generali and Netia.
C1 events were won by Podium Ambition in Gent Wevelgem, Indosat in RAS Tailtean, Kulczyk in Viana Castelo and Meiji in Catalunya. Indosat, SPAR or Repsol all with decent scoring in those as well.
In the lowest C2 races some small scoring in Kuurne but decent scoirng in Hongkong for SPAR, Indosat and Minions.
All in all Indosat dominated this month with Repsol and SPAR following but also Generali not far behind.

March
4 PTHC events. Iberia with Degenkolb unsurprisingly challenged the PT well and got big 258 points. Philips then did well in Pais Vasco with 165 points, Reddit topped in Strade Bianche with 125 but several others just below 100 points actually. E3 then with 113 points from Podium Ambition.
HC in Colombia saw Popo4ever dominate with almost 400 points alon, which is twice as much as runnerup SPAR. In Herning Podium Ambition got big171 points.
C1 in De Panne with Carlsberg winning at 137 points, which is topped by both Podium at 198pts and Minions at 189pts due to depth. Le Samyn with good races for Kulczyk, Podium and SPAR, Java for Ayubowan and Kulczyk.
Southland with great scoring for cycleYorkshire, Reddit and Kraftwerk in the lower areas and Carrefour in the middle section while Jelajah was yet again a race for the month top teams. SPAR scoring the most ahead of Indosat.
Juarez as only C2 race got small cycleYorkshire scoring only.

May
no overview yet. Might come later as the one I used was having the wrong sort!
Full Ranking
A lot is looking very similar to the inofficial ranking with the addition of the two most recent HC classics.
Generali back in the lead passing Indosat. Though both teams clearly going for the title with Repsol in the mix as well with less race days so far.
Podium Ambition off the podium! Surely something to fight for! Fablok then as last top5 team at the moment but it`s close with SPAR, Minions and Pluchkin carried Popo4ever behind just like Ayubowan. Iberia had some decent races more recently and might come back as well if this trend continues.
At the bottom Azteca looks doomed and actually also Carlsberg, Nordstrom and Euskaltel not looking good. Meiji still with contact to the next 5-6 teams, which should make it a thrilling finish. Actually no team up to 13th or something can feel too save yet.
The obvious first. Pluchkin is dominating. Which was clear to happen. But such gap is amazing. Almost doubles the next best, which is Degenkolb as best sprinter.
Then Kudus as 2nd best stage racer which is a bit surprising. Ahead of Uran, Kwiatkowski, Keizer, Denifl, Monsalve...
Coppel in the top5 was also expected but he had 1-2 not as ideal results so far. Mohs as 2nd best sprinter also remains inside the top10 while Lutsenko making it the best pure puncheur with McCarthy being another one in 10th spot. Ahead of him Ewan as 3rd sprinter also with a nice season while Goss in 11th is having a great year apparently.
It all looks a bit less gloomy now, although pointwise the problems haven't changed much. Our leaders are the main problem this year, give Vanbilsen a Baugnies season and Van Asbroeck a Roelandts season and I wouldn't even have to complain about Waeytens.
The division title is far from decided, this could become very interesting.
Meh, Kudus only third in the Individual Ranking Given what it's left on his season (Kenya, Nantahala, Austria and Maroc) i think there's a reasonable chance of getting to 1000 points unless he flops in those races. The optimistic goal pre-season was the 1 P/k (points per 1000€ of wage), so 865 points At the end he turned out to not be one of the worst deals of the season in that matter, something i have to admit i feared when i signed him for that money.
Roelandts also in the Top20 so far with 370 points. Hard to see him getting to 500 given his calendar left (Bayern, Baltic, Maroc, Barbados), but i'm really happy with his season, even if he doesn't score any more points in those races.
Then Vanmarcke 263 points now, with 4 true cobbled races in his calendar left, so i guess 400 points is the range he'll end up getting, with 2 PTHC and 1 HC of those 4
Novak probably only with Bayern as a potential good scoring chance left in his season (Britain or Portugal surely too hard for him), but having 220 points already (and that win in Corsica...) is completely fine. Maybe he gets to 250-280 points at best. Ironic he's just ahead of Rafa Valls in the ranking, the other rider involved in his trade (sorry Rafa i still love you and want you back)
And Bystrom with a lot of hilly stuff in the second part of the season, and despite that 170 points already. I guess 300 points should be his minimum, with so many races for him left.
Didn't consider RD's in my rankings, so looks even better, as we almost have the best PpRD of the division. Though without so many high scoring RD's left, we shouldn't be in the title fight, just promotion fight at best. I can see the team scoring 800-1000 points in what's left on the season, without many overperformances. And 3000 points not sure if it will be enough for promotion
Úran the major point scores, and the cobble team with a nice input as well. Fearing though we'll be hit hard for having more RD than most of the team around us, Úran only has Kenya and Austria left, and the cobble season is also over.
This is even better - and wow do I like that PpRD standings even more! Though I guess it hinges on having Maroc, Portugal, San Luis and other stage races which are far from guaranteed successes still to come...
24/02/21 - kandesbunzler said “I don't drink famous people."
15/08/22 - SotD said "Your [jandal's] humour is overrated"
11/06/24 - knockout said "Winning is fine I guess. Truth be told this felt completely unimportant." [PT] Xero Racing
Was hoping to contend for promotion this season. Not really sure how were this bad.
We've been middle of the pack the last few months, and iirc Kinoshita has only raced once or twice in that time, and not anything before that as well, so theres still hope, but ouch. Bit worrying that we have the 2nd most race days, as its felt like I've barely raced at all.
Best scorer being 30th says it all really. Being this low after the busiest part of our season is over is a very bad sign! I knew we wouldn't be in promotion contention but this is way below expectations. Need our leaders to score consistently going ahead, else we'll get dragged into the relegation dogfight. Come to think of it, being less than 100 points ahead of the relegation places, we're already in it. That's not what I envisaged post transfers!
Thanks to Roturn for the comprehensive update, and also Aqua for the interim work . Great to have this update as it provides a lot of good context in which to view upcoming race results.
In review though, a lot to digest here. On first viewing, particularly Aqua's initial post, WCC look mired in the relegation dogfight, just outside the bottom 5. Roturn's update including RD's presents a much more positive picture (much relief!). Points on the board are more reliable than projections for days remaining - however we have the lowest RD's accrued in the division, and still await perhaps an additional trickle of points from Cheshire and Besseges yet to be finalised. Maintaining a healthy ppRD at ToA is always a big ask, but if the upcoming mid-part of the season can maintain the early season momentum, then fingers crossed our PCT survival and hence entire season won't end up solely reliant on ToA outcome. Nonetheless, things remain tight in that lower mid-table block of teams on 10-15 ppRD. With still approximately half of the RD season remaining for many teams, there is still signficiant room for major changes to occur, so while maintaining cautious optimism from pre-season, full concentration remains on a steady accumulation of points wherever possible.
Some expected names, and others not so much (from my perspective at any rate) in the hunt for promotion. Look forward to watching the battles ahead. Good luck to all at both ends of the table, and a belated Happy New Year from me to the M-G community.
