Croatia14 I think I finally can answer your question about Rafael Reis performance in Volta ao Algarve. It was the first race of the season for him and his team W52-FC Porto-Porto Canal and they did the time trial on a normal bike, instead of a TT one(I don't know why the decision).

Not sure what Adrien Costa's stats are currently, but I think he showed he should have at least 72 mountain. With his potential and his age I'm not sure anything more would be fathomable in the games, but anything less would just be unrealistic.

That is exactly the document the db team stat makers use to update stats, so it could very well have been last updated 5 seconds ago
Thanks for the reply, but what I really wanted to know, is if the changes I suggested, that you agree, are aldredy implemented in the documented. Because it helps a lot if I knew that some rider has a determined stat, to measure the value of that sta of others riders as a comparison, in order to get more precise, as I have more suggestion in my mind of riders of portuguese team.
But if still aren't implemented, I understand that. But in that way may be better to post tendencies than precise stats, to be easier for you.
PS: Sorry for the off-topic, but anyone here know if it may be possible to W52-FC Porto-Porto Canal to go to Pro Continental division? Nuno Ribeiro, the sport director of the team, talked about thst possibilitie, but here we don't know much more.
I'm pretty sure croatia and kodman have already implemented them, yes
About W52 I saw that news popping up too, but I don't see it happening next year, it's clever for Ribeiro to look for new sponsors publically saying he has plans to go PCT, and a Volta was a huge boost for his quest to find new sponsors.

I took a look at the document and I see that stats unchanged. Just wanted to know
I don't see the need for find new sponsors, I mean main sponsors, because the team is part of FC Porto since the start the of this season, and the Club may increase the cycling budget. Also they signed last year a 5 years connection.
Nuno Ribeiro talked about taking a new step at the end of the season. so it may be possible. As the team has more than qualitie to climb to that division, and I don't feel money would be the problem.
@Jpgm97
Yeah, they've been updated, no worries there
What seems odd is that I went through the link in the first post and the changes we've made didn't show up which was weird. I even went through my bookmarked link just in case we've screwed up on our end and everything is normal, I guess the link in the first post doesn't update stats for some odd reason. Sorry about the confusion.
I decided to take a more detailed look at the DB at this moment, and most of the stats I agree. I think you are doing a great work.
But still, I would want some give more stats suggestions.
But before I don't know why the link from PCS doesn't work, but the rider I talked about is João Almeida.
Now:
-I know i am been insisting in this point but some Nocentini stat are still hight compared to our best riders. For his performance over the year i would give this stats(they are in the order of the DB document): 68/69/70/60/68/69/66/71/69/69/69/70,73.
-I think Daniel Silva at this moment is the best rider of Radio Popular Boavista, after many years of leadership of Rui Sousa. But in the DB, he isn't still, but if his moutains were increased to 70 I think it would solve it.
-63 mountains it's still low for Di Mateos, but I have think better, and maybe a 65 would suit him best. And if he keeps his performance there I think he needs a bigger bost.
-Raul Alarcón I think he deserves at least 65 or more resistance. An example of that is the second place in the long TT in the Volta.
-João Benta moutains are too hight, 69 would fit him best, as better riders than him have lower stats and also as the leader of Louletano in the Volta he couldn't do better result than his team mate Di Mateos, who is considered a sprinter.
-As for Alejandro Marque, i looked at his best results in the Volta a Portugal, and without the 2013 and 2015 season, his result this year is near what he has done in the past. I mean he wasn't properly in the top of the best climbers here, even thought in that 2 years he had good performances in the mountains. Example in 2013 he was 4th in the GC before the long TT, with Rui Sousa in the Yellow Jersey, in which he won, with Gustavo Veloso(that was his team mate at that year) doing second in the stage and at GC, with only a difference of 4 seconds in the GC. After that performance he signed for Movistar, but he never was part of the team, because he had a clause that if were found he had positive doping controls he would be fired, what in fact hapenned and it was retired the Volta win. Even thought later it was discovered that there was no issue relative to doping, and he had a clean win in the Volta. So he had a year without competing. I think that may have affected him. He came back last year, and looked different. He was slimmer than the years before, so he could perform better in the moutains. But that made him lost power to do good TTs and to sprint well. And this year he had a bad performance, even in the moutains. At this moment of his career I would suggest this stats: 68/69/66/60/68/68/67/67/67 66/68/68/74.
-Improving Bruno Silva mountains to 65 as he is very important helper for Amaro Antunes and Marque in the climbs, and last year won the climber's jersey.
-About Jóni Brandão, I think his resistance is low, for the best portuguese rider in our teams. What about 67/68? I may be wrong, but I think resistance is very important for a GC rider.

Michal Schlegel (Klein Constantia could use a MO boost seeing his performance in Avenir. He's currently on 64, I'd estimate 66-67 would suit him.
Twan van den Brand (Jo Piels) could use a COB boost for his 2nd place in the Slag om Norg. Might have been a one-off, but a small upgrade could be in place. Same goes for Peter Schulting (Parkhotel Valkenburg)
Harttijs de Vries could use a small HI boost. He got some good results in the hilly races of the Topcompetitie (a series of one day races in the Netherlands, winner gets offered a contract at Roompot). I think 65HI could work well. He's got some more good results in the Topcompetitie as well, including a victory in the Omloop van Alkmaar (from a break, beating Mol), so maybe a general boost could do as well.
(https://www.topcompetitie.nu/ for more on the Topcompetitie, could work as a good reference for Dutch CT team stats, maybe for adding some FAs as well)
@jpmg & Selwink: Thanks a lot for this deep input. I will implement these suggestions at the 1st of September, as well as the results of this week including Avenir (I have a deadline for my university at the 31st of August so full gas on that before)
Croatia14 is there any way I can transfrer the most updated stats to a cdb, without doing the changes one by one in the editor, so I could have a better view on it?
And another question. Have you aldredy done that changes you said you would do today? If not, there is no problem, as I understand that you have many others things to do.
Thanks, but how do I transfrer the sheet that is in the first post, which is the most updated, isn't it? Because the one I transfered has different stats from that.
Maybe I did something wrong.
Is it the place to talk about PCT stats, if yes, I want a stat revolution for Adam Phelan from Drapac. He isn't a TTer anymore more like hilly sprinter. A hill and sprint stat of 70-69, while his tt for 67 and prl for 68. It is a guy who i scout him alot, well..
