Van der Poel super; Dinham surprise; bad Evenepoel, Philipsen and Alaphilippe

As usual, we update the values ​​of the riders in relation to their performance in terms of fantasy points.

The absolute ruler of this world was   Mathieu Van der Poel , the Dutchman, despite a fall shortly after the decisive sprint, managed to win with over 1'30" ahead of the runner-up, so he is awarded a   +4 bonus .

Behind him they stand   Van Aert   with   +2 ,   Pogacar   only   +1   because of its very high cost and   Pedersen   with   +2 . The Swiss also deserve a capital gain of 2 fantasy points   Kung , fifth at the finish line in a comeback, and the Latvian Skuijns.

Matthew Dinham , the absolute surprise of this world championship review, takes +4 like Van der Poel: the Australian, in a breakaway for the first part of the race, also manages to keep the wheels of the best in the final and ends up in seventh place.

In the end,   +1 for Benoot   And   Bettiol , respectively ninth and tenth on arrival.

The biggest disappointments of this world championship undoubtedly come from the Belgians   Evenepoel   (-3)   And   Philipsen   (-2) . The French are also very bad, never really protagonists of the race: the captains pay   Alaphilippe and Laporte ,   both with -2 value . Same minus also for   Matthews   who retires three laps from the end after an anonymous race. Finally, the following riders lose 1 in value: Almeida, Asgreen, Wright, Cort, Izagirre, Kwiatkovski and Kristoff.
