UCI Nations Ranking - after Nerang

[Psykopath]

Oz passed USA in the UCI Nations Points looking after the Class 4 / 5 rounds in Australia last weekend.

Nations ranking is based on top 3 rider scores; SamW, KY and Krikham (at the moment).

SamW won both (65 and 20 points)...Kirkham was 3rd for both rounds (45 and 12 points).


New UCI standing for Elite Men (9 Jan 2011):
1 LATVIA 1,602
2 AUSTRALIA 1,592
3 UNITED STATES 1,455


With SamW winning races on two continents and Strombergs injured it is quite possible that Australia will pass Latvia and take over the top spot.



Aussie women gained 193 points from the past weekend's racing.

(approximate) Elite Women points:
1. USA: 1780
2. AUS: 1684
3. FRA: 1312
