Geoff Kabush has moved into second in the overall World Cup standings after Canberra, tied on points with Christoph Sauser (Specialized) at 945 points - Julien Absalon (Orbea) is uncatchable, at 1340 points. He is 48 points ahead of Burry Stander (GT) in fourth, and 81 in front of Jose Hermida (Multivan Merida), who is fifth.
