Puh. Bad stage from Ponzi but he manages to just salvage it there, nice! Congratz Tasta, solid Hagen win that.
Strong performance on the flat stage is promising too. Just one stage to go!

Great! A breakway victory for Vesuvio on a stage like this is unusual, but Fritsch has previous, and good to see he has managed one this season!
It should have been a great Van der Lijke stage, but the breakway clearly turned out a better option.
Too bad that a crash wiped out Paterski's GC Top 30.

Kind of expected to see the breakaway run away with it, as that was always going to be a difficult stage for the sprinters with all the climbing. Fritsch winning it is also cool, gently reminding everyone about his past in the Ardennes 
Some surprising riders dropped from the peloton as well, apparently not after a crash, like Mohoric, Prevar and Flügel, which must be annoying for their managers, as there's really no reason for them to drop on such a course. |

Happy to see Borges trying hard in the last stage. It'd be nice to reach a top10, but it's still a good result.
Nice to see Gaspar join the break today,. 4th isn't the desired outcome but our breakaway victory will come one day. Congrats on the victory SN!

Well, at least Vakoc is without a time loss, good.
Skala with a top 10 result, always nice to see a Czech getting a good result. 
Congrats to Vesuvio.

Well.... we're not completely invisible as we did make a lead-out train... only for Ewan to then be completely invisible outside the top15... Still, we get that important lvl4 XP

After his early promise Flügel went into a tailspin and only improved his GC place by avoiding crashes, not the way I want to gain points really.
Congrats to dev4ever & thanks to Abhishek for the reports.

First break by Vanendert all season and then on a flat stage. Lol much? Ofc finishing 6th out of 6. But okay, I take it.

I guess I'll still be dreaming about that day tonight Nice race for us with a few top5s in stages and Borges landing 11th. Not many points, but that was never going to happen. Avelino though...
Congrats on the overall triumph dev, and thanks for all the detailed reports, Abhishkek!

Well. Saber finally recovered and the breakaway finishes all ahead 
4th in GC is okay. Not too special though to make a big step. Guess we need another Tasmania podium from Bobridge then. And ofc a relevant result in TONE!
Thanks for the great coverage!

And another break 
3rd+13th is solid but i honestly expected a bit more - at least from Van Stayen. This feels a bit underwhelming but i guess i should not complain after the previous month

Surviving the crash fest, so that's good... Sorry for all those who crashed. Happy with 2nd place for Eddy and a stage win, but very close on both the GC and points jersey, so could have been even better, but at least ahead of my 1500 points schedule for EBH now...
Thanks for all the reports!

The crash hit us hard. We were beaten by fucking Stuyven once again. Race luck not on our side these days.

2/3 flat stages with breakaway win is not good at all. It makes me think if investing of millions €€€ into quality sprinter squad is worthy anymore.
Thanks for the reports and congrats to dev.

Nice ride by Foliforov on the last stage and Trofimov 5th in GC is good enough for me. Thanks for the reports!!!
