A classification that is still very open.

In the women's race, Potter has a clear advantage, although athletes like Lehair, Spivey, Tertsch, and Beaugrand could change the landscape in just a few races. In the men's race, Vilaça leads comfortably, but Hidalgo, Paquet, Batista, and Hauser keep the fight for the world title alive.
