Good to see the team making something of Matti's time loss yesterday giving room for some offensive riding. Would have been great with a stronger sprint, but I'll take a stage 3rd with pleasure.
Please repeat in stage 3

Well that turned out well, thanks jandal, no attacks from Azteca and Lierse is very good  A bit bad that only De Backer was in the group but still the GC looks strava-ish

no breakaway attempts, and Drucker continues his cobbles crashfest...Top10 would've been clearly possible without the crash...horrible race for us...

That crash really f*cked us and we will be outscored by another CT team. Yep, this race has been an unmitigated failure. Time to move on and re-group.... after the TT of course.

*2, only difference is that you can clean out the "another" and write "every other" for me...

Apparently Pierzga has abandoned? Should be listed in the stage results.
Pretty much cost us a top 5 as without him it was Mørkøv who (for the umpteenth time) stuffed us up.  Not like I had anything else to do with these racedays though, so can't really complain.
Congrats on the win Scorchio, nice to see your guys making the most out of the break.

WTF it's like mathematical that if the stage is shorter than 130 kms a break, be it late or early, wins every single time. Not that it would have changed the way my team handled this one.

9th and 10th won't give any points iirc. Hoping for 3 good GCs now, Franzoi won't finish ahead Cancellara in the TT but hopefully lets Van Asbroeck behind him to get 5th, a lot will depend on how much van Asbroecks PRL stat will have an influence on the result.With Oba as good TTist I'm counting on another GC Top10, Nepomniyachsniy will also finish in the top12, where exactly will decide his daily form paired with a diceroll of the PCM gods. |

Good, only one stage left! Summerhill shouldn't come close but Cance on +5 against awful Baugnies is actually something that worries me, even on 11k. Thanks to the jandal!

Obviously not the result we were hoping for, but honestly not awful either. Summerhill isn't in the same form he was last season. Obviously he still competes for every cobbled race, and generally finds the podium, but the wins list isn't going to be as long this year.
And with our struggles to do anything elsewhere, I believe we will be finding ourselves in CT next season.

Fuck me...thought Tennant was on the podium after finishing the report and then I see stupid Julien Vermote with 70!!! TT ripping my celebration apart...
Drucker seems like he wants to laugh at me with that good time trial after getting wrecked on the cobbles...
Katrasnik had a break with an ok finish, but also missing the opportunity to grab a great result...
The other guys just non existent...

We got it! We got it! Gc and team clas won, plus 5 guys in Top 15. Great comeback for Cance, Lierse with third and points.. good race for the other cobblez guys. Thks jandsl for the swift and funny reports, Baugnies definitely didnt spend the night alone

Cancellara will be quite a lot of fun this season in the TTs. So far two TTs for him (including Differdange) and two wins. 4th in the GC is somewhat acceptable. Surprised to see Vermote up high ass well (okay, it's PCM, it shouldn't surprise me too much).
And Serebriakov showed some real 2014-style sprint as well
Thanks for the reports jandal and congrats to Shonak for an impressive GC victory.

Very very close to a stage win there but am not unhappy especially as normally Van Winden was supposed to lose a lot more time. The race still sucked for us, but this makes it suck a bit less. Congrats Shonak and thanks for the nice reports jandal!

Reckweg 9th? um...?
Congrats on the win Shonak on the race win and Selwink on the stage!
As for us, we reached a grand total of 4 points putting us at 1 pprd, glad I decided not to go adventurous with any other C1 cobbles.
Thanks for the reports Jandal!

We get some points from this race, but far fewer that i'd hoped. Thomas with redemption on Stage 3 and salvaged a not awful GC placing. Stoenchev almost getting in the Top10 of the TT was nice addition as well. Race over, dissapointment noted. Moving on...
