The shirts in the shirt pack should have a 14 in front of the name, at least the one I downloaded from Atlantius' post did.  |

And again we could not deliver Calzone a mass sprint. Perhaps some teams should send stronger support if they have the top sprinters in a race. 
But nice to see Calzone coming third in the bunch sprint (with Greipel and Hanzen even attacking before the sprint). I began to doubt him very much but this result is at least somewhat promising.

Selwink, can you please convert the screenshots to JPG?
I could have sworn I had. Won't fix it for this report, but it will obviously be done for the others.

Hello and welcome back to Qatar for yet another pan flat race in the crosswinds. The breakaway today was the biggest so far with Enger (COL), Pauwels (WGG), De Vreese (TSV), Murphy (UHC), Graziato (BAR), Delfosse (CRE) and Arashiro (AND).
Of course with such a big break, the chances of it succeding were always high, and as Sky refuse to work even while having the yellow jersey and the best sprinter here, the botd has an advantage of exactly 10'00" with 66km to go. Delfosse is the best placed rider GC wise with a disadvantage of 6'51", so if the peleton dedicate a bit of work here, the GC should stay with Boasson Hagen.
De Vreese is by far the worst sprinter in the group, so with 13km to go and the advantage at 3'35", he tries to go solo. He soon builds up a gap of 30", but the rest of the break don't panic yet and still work together well.
With 4500 metres to go and the gap still at that, Delfosse realises the win is slipping from his grasp and so sets off in pursuit.
He catches De Vreese with 2km to go, but you can already see Arashiro sprinting up to them at the bottom of the picture.
And indeed Arashiro and Graziato soon sprint past them. A bit behind, Enger, Pauwels and Murphy are trying to close the gap that has formed.
Under the flamme rouge, Graziato goes past Arashiro. Could it be the first win here for the sprinters team or can Arashiro make it a second for Androni?
But wait - Pauwels has somehow found the energy to reach them, and looks like he might even pass them...
No! Graziato just about holds on to get the win for Bardiani, whilst Arashiro edges out Pauwels for second. Murphy beats Enger to fourth, while Delfosse beats De Vreese in the duel of the non-sprinters.
Cavendish, Goss and Demare round off the top ten - surely sky should have worked more earlier on to get a second stage win, questionable tactics from them.

Still going well in Qatar, plenty of points to pull in if we keep going as the previous stages have done

Bookwalter is in incredible form. Him moving in to the top 10 is the only positive about this stage.

TDU - Good performance from Elmiger in the winning break but he was never winning a sprint.
ToQ - Good to see Gustav move onto the podium, more than I expected for sure.
24/02/21 - kandesbunzler said “I don't drink famous people."
15/08/22 - SotD said "Your [jandal's] humour is overrated"
11/06/24 - knockout said "Winning is fine I guess. Truth be told this felt completely unimportant."

Typical, whenever one of my riders get's into a breakway, they don't stay with the group in the end, even when 7 are finishing alongside each other from the break -.- Glad Feunard got the KoM jersey back, but I fear he will lose it at Willunga

Arashiro so close to taking our second stage win here, good effort from him.
Lipawsky losing 11 minutes and his decent GC is gone.

Some encouragement for my epic guys Kawasaki and Leigh in Qatar and down under, hoping for some weaker startlist later on in the season!
Enjoyed Qatar stage, massive echelons.

Maybe extract them somewhere else and then copy them to the correct map? |
