Team CSC has climbed atop the team classification in the ProTour standings following the recent Volta a Catalunya. Team CSC has won the ProTour team title three years running in what was an important reflection of the team’s consistency, depth and quality. The ProTour ranking, however, has lost some of its shine following a split between cycling’s governing body and the sport’s biggest race organizers. Such events as the three major grand tours and many of the most important one-day races such as Paris-Roubaix and Milan San-Remo are no longer part of the points system. Fränk Schleck is the highest ranked rider from Team CSC in 11th with 32 points. Team CSC will surely shine in the events that remain part of the ProTour. Up next are the Dauphiné Libéré and the Tour de Suisse, two stage races where the team is expected to do well in the final dress rehearsals ahead of the Tour de France.
