Great race for Andorra/Yellow Jersey, José Rujano very active all the time.
Not much to say about our race today, still very close in top of GC

Disappointingly un-selective day of racing guess I should be fine with that and keep my guys still in the GC hunt.

I got a chuckle in the begining

Rujano taking the race lead is interesting, the way he has been riding I could see him holding onto it against the stronger climbers.
Ahmad Zamri is still doing us proud by being in contention for the white jersey, I don't expect him to gain time for it against the stronger opposition but he is doing well to avoid losing more time each stage considering they outclass him.
And Salleh hanging on to the points jersey each day he survives still in it is a nice little bonus to our scoring out of this race, I expect him to lose it at some point but the longer he can keep hold of it the more minor points we manage to sneak out of this one.

Happy to see Rujano going strong. Atapuma tried at least.. He can still grab a top 5. |

De Marchi and Khripta are riding out of their skins.
Hacecky got caught in the crosswinds early on. Typical.

Average race for Team Reddit without any mentions. Anacona still in top 10 contention, hopefully the next mountain stage will be tougher.
Grats Aquarius, I'm sure Valls' domination has only started  |

Now we can all feel ashamed of ourselves for not betting on him like Aquarius told us to.  Gratz though, Aquarius!
Anton still on the podium, with such bad luck for Jandal you'd hope he could hold onto it now, although tomorrow will be a tough day.
Thanks for the report SN, quite a funny start to the race, I was cheering an all day Andorra break for a hectic stage and loved the shot of the control rider and Pererya looking ready for a fistfight...

Congratz Aquarius, i bet on the wrong stage
Disapointed to see Rujano loose this much time, but the stage win already made our whole race. I hope it was just a bad day for Rujano as he's showed he's got the legs, tomorrow is still a big mountain day and we're craving for a very agressive race from the gun

De Marchi still eking out the top 10s, but Valls just too strong.
Really enjoying the reports!

Love that opening screenshot Nzeke very active getting into the break again and above all Anton stays somewhat safe and leads the main group home to stay in the podium. Gora!
Also congrats to Aquarius for the debut win and lovely to see Bardet in second

Well, now a little more calmed post
Yes! Finally that win from Valls. It's a huge step to achieve that Win Goal. And the gap to Penasa is very interesting, so he shouldn't be the biggest threat. Bardet looks worryingly good at the moment, but Valls should have this controlled.
Also, now Valls leads KoM and is really close to Points lead. PERFECT stage for us
Pd: Those who bet on Valls, thanks for trusting me! And those who didn't... shame on you!
Pd2: Wtf happens with Valls' shoulders and neck??!!
Pd3: Thanks to all, and great report as always SN!

That's what's expected from Valls. He left it late but this should set him up for the remainder of the race.

Good stage overall. Atapuma still in contention for a podim and Moschella can still top 10. Can come out with good points! |

On a side note, does a top 5 in the u25 score points?

In C2 races, you score points from U25 until 8th place. In 5th you'll score 2 points
