And we're back for another ranking update! Let's have a look at the previous month in the table below.
Some things to take away:
* Ethiopian Airlines wins this months thanks to their C1/C2 scoring
* Bianchi still doing well, definitely thanks to a great Milano - Torino as well
* Tafjord scores only in one race this month, but they score quite nicely there
* Glanbia is the worst team of the month, despite scoring in all C1/C2 races

And what does this give in the total rankings?
Some things to take away:
* Bianchi stays in the lead, it will be very hard to beat them for the title
* Ethiopian Airlines jumps over Kraftwerk after a good month for the former, same stuff happening right under them as well, where Peugeot leaves Euskadi behind
* SEE Turtles biggest jump of the month here, from 8 to 6, with Podium and Euskotren losing one spot each
* Places 9 to 16 everything stays the same

And now, individually, you can find the full table below.
Most important stuff to remember:
* Perera still the king of CT
* Moscon jumping to second after his great HC performance
* Galta steadily rising
* The two Colombian Santiago's also with a nice jump inside the top-10 now
* The fact that Carsi is top-20 is crazy
Steady climbing and another good month, I like that. Promotion looks more and more likely specially considering we still have the least race days used. Also nice to know we get 22,5 pprc from Pro Halstatt not here and still Austria and Maroc for Galta after that and Romandie. Can't catch Bianchi, Jt just solved the game, but fingers crossed for a top 2!
Also quite happy with Galta in 4th, should be top 3 for the season and I say that has been good value for him (even though I hoped for 1st) and with Thomsa/BVL/Vincent having okay seasons, and Kopfauf being Kopfauf (awesome) I am quite happy
Very good update for us, I figured we'd be up there but hadn't realised just how good our August was. It feels like promotion and even a podium finish is firmly within our grasp now barring anything crazy happening.
Looking at the individual rankings, really nice to see two guys in the top 10 with Madu still first, as well as Gabby up to 14th.
Title is obviously decided but the race for promotion and the podium is still exciting - looks like it'll be a nailbiter between Euskadi and the turtles for 5th, excited to see where that goes!
Very happy obviously, looks like Moscons latest results in Torino is probably going to get us over the line for the title bar some Galta heroics to finish the season
Great seasson by Dave, Dippo and Heine, really strong seasons by all starting to look very safe top 4 now Euskadi and my pre-season surprise pick Turtles being next is cool to see both very safe to go up now and well deserved. I do think Turtles will move up to 5th by end of the year
Parmalet been a bit of a surprise further down didn't expect them to be as good so congrats to them and with the disbands would not be shock if those and Tajord make the promotion cut as well and come to PCT next year
The fact Chequan is still out top scoring rider really says everything you need to know about this Podium Ambition season. And yet, we are still, somehow, just about, hanging onto the fringes of promotion. Still time to pull off the fairy tale finale!
