For a team with no proper climbers I'm very happy to have such a strong presence in the European B race.

Good to see us with a good amount of riders in the TT. With the mountainous RR, not really anything for our riders, should at least be some good racing.

Was probably expecting Grabovski to be our only representative. Bardet is a nice surprise but not an unlikely pick. Bogdanovics surely is . 3 is always merrier than 0

Love the inclusions of our Kulczyk guys, both in the TT's and road races. Penasa should be interesting to watch as a domestique for Cattaneo
Mullen will struggle in the RR, but it would be amazing to see a top 8 finish in the TT! Doubtful, though.

Looks like we have a good chance in the Asian championships. Hopefully we can win one of them, but it wont be easy.

Looking forward to Haijun Ma in the Asian TT. Hope he can be able to get top 8 there.
Also looking forward to see meme rider Krasnoperov's first performance in Europe. Will be interesting to see how he does in this DB.
Thanks for doing this |

That startlist for the European RR is just crazy. Insane quality!
And very nice to see this running another season, thank you for the work, Roman! |

Some really nice Podium Ambition representation in near enough every road race. The highlight being Kim Le Court & Yoann Pirogue and Kristin Vanderpool & Darren Matthews in their respective colors and races. We might not be the most nationalistic team in the game, but it's cool to get our primary registry nations well presented
Time to open the racing in 2017!!!!

Nice to see some good representation!
Sure you got the right Diaz at the startlist? CL 55 and OVL 60? My climbing goat Diaz is 78 MO |

8 riders in time trials who's one of the worst in the game now (We are, we suck ) Good to see my riders in every road race bar the main European one, and hope for everyone to cheer the only non-Jayco rider in the top 4 or 5 climbers in Oceania, George Bennett

Looking forward for this. Very interesting startlists especially with those less known countries being represented.
Thanks for this perk for the pre-season Roman

Looks like we might actually do something here Grigrian a nice contender for the B race in Europe and Ford for the Oceania TT. Not sure how much exactly we'll get, but this should be fun to follow in any case

Yeah, just a mistake via formulas on this startlist page - the right Diaz with MO 78 is racing. There may be more mistakes like that in case there are more riders named with the same first letter of first name and same last name. Sorry about that.

Wow, it looks like Sweden really messed up their sprint tactics there

nice to see the first report of the new season, Scarponi really tried his hardest to get away at the end and the effort he put in should have been rewarded with better than sprinting to 5th, especially if he could still top 5 after those 2 late attacks. That said as the manager of a Sammarinese team I probably would say he deserved it.
It does feel strange not starting the season with the traditional preseason bay crit's from tsmoha though.

Nice to see Oste Macdonald holding on and grabbing a top ten out of it!
