Daniel Deusser (GER) continues to top the Longines Ranking, for a second consecutive month. Up from rank three to rank two this month is Martin Fuchs (SUI), with only 29 points separating the two riders. Steve Guerdat (SUI) is down from rank two to three and sits 75 points behind Deusser.
Scott Brash (GBR) is up from rank six to four, while Kent Farrington (USA) stays as rank five. Going all the way from rank twelve to six is Julien Epaillard (FRA), new in the Top 10. Marlon Modolo Zanotelli (BRA) also makes a solid climb, going from rank ten to seven. Max Kühner (AUT) is another rider doing a big jump up into the Top 10, going from rank twenty to eight. Darragh Kenny (IRL) drops from rank eight to nine, and McLain Ward (USA) from nine to ten. Out of the Top 10 this month is Ben Maher (GBR) as well as Peder Fredricson (SWE).
This is the second month where the Longines Ranking is being unfrozen following the implementation of the Covid-19 policy at the end of March last year. Each monthly calculated ranking will now have a shift of two months – meaning a 12-month regular ranking period is expected with ranking no. 251 which will be calculated at the beginning of December 2021. This month’s ranking is calculated over a period of 22 months, and includes validated results from 1st of September 2019 to 30th of June 2021.
