10th, again. Good to see Yauheni at least sprinting, and Nitu picking up a few KoM points is encouraging as well.

Ouch coutinho really suffered with the headwind there, but well better luck next time I guess.
Great victory for the home team, congrats Sancor. Must feel awesome taking this one!
Looking forward for the next one. Outstanding pace!

Another stage that shows how fickle sprints can be - Karcher's train swamped there and Richeze manages his efforts really well to nab a nice win for Ian. A bit like me he needs to enjoy the moment as I believe there will likely be few for him this year.
I am seeing a lot of very clustered sprints this year which is really great fun, the reporting standards of the trains is really fantastics I love that placing graphic it is almost better than live fast as anything action where you need to watch the replay three or four times to figure out what went on.

Well done, Aregger beating Richeze with a last second efford... a shame it was the wrong Richeze he passed. Gratz to Sancor!
Still no answer on where to score, but I guess we're getting smarter day by day.

Nice win Ian, nothing from us in this stage as expected, it's fine as long as we keep the 2 top GC spots we have right now even though we'll lose them in stage 3

Can't wait for next stage, it is very important to gain time there, as I think stage 4 will be ending in a sprint. Gratz Ian, about time Richeze woke up

Congrats Ian! Awful sprint from Keough though considering his positioning.

Great with a home win and wonderful sprint by Vinther as well . Good to see him making something from on of his rare chances to ride for himself.

Congrats Ian! Great to see Richeze win.
Sobota was pretty good for us today, had no real aims for him so a fourth place is very nice.
Thanks Roturn for the report.

You just gotta love seeing SanCor doing great!
But I don't even want to comment our own performance so far...
Thanks Roturn! |

Cheers everyone! If I had to pick one race where I wanted a win this season, it was here. Couldn't be more thrilled about it |

I don't get how Bibby lost over three and a half minutes to a guy with the same hill stat...
Bellis is our leader I suppose now, with Bibby just riding to salvage something for GC. Absolutely dreadful sign for the rest of Bibby's races though. |

Nepom made the first split, however it looks like this attempt at getting good points will fail. Prevar quite strong, but his TTs are pretty much worthless.

Great ride from Sanchez today! Must've had some very good daily form given all the attacks and still managing second, really pleased with that. Being beaten by Vastaranta brings back CT nightmares though.
Congrats Atlantius and thanks Roturn!
