E3 Harelbeke - Doesn't look promising for RVV and PR, Terpstra really can't sprint and won't attack. 
PRU23 - Nice that Mapempa came 11th where I wasn't expecting much by joining the break.

We're there and we're crashing, well done U23!
Van Keirsbulck close again, time for the big win 
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

@jaxika and that's not even the best result of your season!
Well and just as I thought it couldn't get any worse there's E3.Hope those overpaid tw*ts start to perform very soon.

DDV: Nice top 10 by Gaudin
CI: What a first stage! 4 riders in the top 10, including a third place for Petit!

Hehe. A nice summary of your infinite successes so far this season!

Expected much more from Korup. Vanthourenhout has to win a cobbled race this season or he is out of dodge.
And he does it! What a result for Korup!  That one ride makes the whole season for that team for us. The best result for our Cameroonian dev team for the past season and a bit was, I think, one fluky top 10 from a breakaway, so that shatters it and is a good reason to give them more budget!
E3 - Langeveld making the lead group again is all we can ask. Boonen consistently finishing behind shows that the Duchie is our top cobbler now as we half-expected. Allianz, over-powered again, they are really becoming a serious threat for the WT title. A threat I did not see! |

And also the last stage is up. Thrilling result there!
Gent - Wevelgem could come in a 15 minutes. Otherwise tomorrow afternoon.
EDIT: Up now!

And so it is March is done and dusted finally, please bring April now!
As for the result:
Spoiler Yeah well that's just your average Alitalia result. Now that I can report races I've just seen how crap my team is in those cobbled classics. They just give up, I'm not even sure why. Italo on the other hand does it perfectly. It's incredible how well their tactics worked for them and I guess it was exactly like that in all the other races as well. Congrats Bikex!

Another top 10 is okish, Vanmarcke clearly the best cobbler for now, hoping Van Keirsbulck can challenge him in Ronde and Roubaix.
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

and Podravka breaks the 100 points barrier. awesome season start for the dev guys with two KOM jersey's as well.
the "why are we starting here" continues with 115th and 112th placings at E3 Prijs Vlaanderen en Gent-Wevelgem. nice

Tsatevich and Bouhanni really messed up that sprint in MSR  I was so full with hope when we were leading out...
Dwaars door Vlaanderen: Just no comment on our failure.

Okay, let's look at the results of those two cobbled races:
E3 : Greipel with a shock win. If they would have one more proper leader they would really be a key challenger for the WT crown but this way, I cannot really see them keeping their shape but it is already very convincing!
Vanmarcke once again with a strong race for Italo. He looks like the definition of consistency !
My own team seems to have done well to get two riders in the group of eight and Eisaks was seemingly in that split as well. Would have been cool to get Sagan in the top group as well but even without two guys in the top five is a string result. Another 300 points which are much needed in these kind of races!
97. Florian Senechal.
GW : Vanmarcke und Greipel once again the winners and my team scores well due to great depth. Two guys in the top six and the next one 12th. Another fine 275 points roughly 
Oh and 67. Florian Senechal. This guy is class.
A Big Thank You To All MG Reporters! |

10th and 10th...
Well, better than 11th I suppose.
Ignore my last post. Dibben is already better than Stannard.

Another great race for Vanmarcke. Now he only needs to do well in our goal race Ronde and the cobbled season is already a success for him. If everything goes normal Italo should be right at the top of the rankings after the Giro before we'll slowly drop down again.
Didn't think the rankings would reach the PCMDaily postlength limit, but now all rankings updated. |
