Richie Porte wins 2015 Paris-Nice
Despite coming away from Sunday's Milan-San Remo empty-handed, British WorldTour outfit Team Sky has retained its position at the top of the UCI WorldTour team ranking, with the squad's Richie Porte still sat comfortably at the top of the rider ranking.
Sky's Geraint Thomas and Ben Swift were in the mix during the finale of Milan-San Remo in Italy, but both riders finished outside of the top 10 with German John Degenkolb (Giant-Alpecin) taking the sprint victory ahead of Alexander Kristoff (Katusha) and Michael Matthews (Orica-GreenEdge).
