UCI World Tour Promotion/Relegation Ranking

Last computed: 29/07/2025

The UCI WorldTour is the top-tier series of professional road cycling races, organized by the Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI). It features the most prestigious events on the cycling calendar, including both one-day classics and multi-stage races. Famous one-day races on the WorldTour include Paris-Roubaix and the Tour of Flanders, while the calendar’s most prominent stage races are the three Grand Tours: the Tour de France, Giro d’Italia, and Vuelta a España.

Being in the UCI WorldTour is crucial for teams as it guarantees entry into the biggest races, offers global sponsor exposure, and provides valuable UCI points that impact rankings and promotion or relegation.

Participation in UCI WorldTour races is primarily reserved for teams that hold a UCI WorldTour license, which grants automatic entry to all events on the WorldTour calendar. In addition, race organizers may invite other teams through wildcard entries, though these are limited and not guaranteed.

Holding a UCI WorldTour license ensures consistent visibility in the sport’s biggest races, making it highly attractive to sponsors. The global exposure helps teams secure and retain high-value sponsorship deals.

The Men’s UCI WorldTour is limited to 18 teams. If more than 18 teams apply for a WorldTour license, selection is based on the UCI’s sporting criterion. This criterion is calculated by adding the UCI points of each team's top 20 riders over a three-year period. Teams with the highest totals secure a place, while those below the cutoff face relegation.

However, teams ranked 19th and 20th still receive automatic wildcard invitations to all WorldTour races for the following season, while the 21st-ranked team is guaranteed entry to all WorldTour one-day races.
