great Quebec as the very tough goal race, Gasparotto delivering (nearly the first time this season) as second...for this alone his signing payed out

Thanks Shonak, only Sprint Challenge left to finish the month. Sorry for the delay wanted to make videos for you but then my PC crashed, now the quarterfinals are up: https://pcmdaily.com/forum/viewthread....st_1157908
I'll try again for the final to make a video. For Il Lombardia and WC I'll have my new PC then, so videos can be made then as well.

Kittel and Sagen again winning their groups and I'm lucky with the seeds that they can't go against each other until the final
A Big Thank You To All MG Reporters!

Agreed to see a 2vs2 Carbon/Allianz finale?

Sorry for being inactive for a while, been very busy with assignments and training, but it should be all good now.
Two eigths for Brambilla. Not bad, but not great either. I really should try to compose a stronger team next season.

Sagen , are you drunk ? You're supposed to contest
Strong show by Kittel. Now three Germans in German teams vs one foreign intruder. Can Kittel continue his domination?

Nizzolo has done amazingly to make the final. I can see some funny AI, but then again when the original sprint series happened I do recall some interestin tactics too.
Still Sagan what was he doing
Videos are awesome - ICL becoming the absolute premier game her on Daily thanks everyone for the reporting really enjoying it!

Finally Martin wins a time-trial... Good to see he won the GC, even though he was the big favourite. Mohoric finishing in the top 10 is a great result for him.
Degenkolb making it to the final again in Quebuec is great. Hopefully he can finally win it this year.

Kittel letting knockout down for the third time now but quebec is annexed german territory regardless. Looking forward to the last month.

We're almost mathematically back in Continental unless we get saved by whatever factor.

Rankings now updated: https://pcmdaily.com/forum/viewthread....st_1158488
Now into the last month.
Personally, I'm happy that Nibali took over the top. After the season he has had anything below that would indicate a bad rankings system.
Also we still got closer than expected to Prorace, but I can't imagine that we will still overtake them and imo Prorace deserves the rankings win more after already being on the podium the last two seasons.
