Roglič and Bernal make huge leaps in the Overall Ranking
With 700 points to go, Roglič approaches top 1000 position
Last week saw a very exciting battle for the win in the 2018 Tour de Romandie between Lotto-Jumbo's Primož Roglič and Sky's Egan Bernal. Two incredibly talented riders that only a few years ago were still dedicated to other sport disciplines. This time, eventually it was Roglič that came out as winner, but we're sure that the future will see more battles between these two. With their performance came a nice amount of points for our Overall Ranking that resulted in huge leaps by the two main actors of last week's race. Roglič is now rapidly approaching a top 1000 position, another 700 points will get him there. And Bernal, at only 21 years, jumped to nr. 3535, a place that we are sure he will leave behind him soon.
