And in the latest update, justice was finally done to the world and US champion: Argentina moved up one place and was in first place for the first time since March 2017. In addition France climbed from the third to the second step of the podium, while Brazil he dropped two places to take third. The rest of the Top 10, meanwhile, remained unchanged.
