Great job from Bilbao, he is impressing me so far unlike my other Spanish leader, who is just trash.
Thanks for another report Tamijo! |

YESS! THANK YOU PONZI! THANK YOU DEV! LET'S DO THIS MORE OFTEN!
I was a bit scared the break would win at oome point, and I'm very surprised they could finish in the main group. Grats to those teams, and sorry to Evonik for getting robbed.
Thanks for reporting Tamijo  Fun route as well, definitely better than last year.
whew...
100 % agree with you, an honour working together with you here
Very happy with the teams effort here and the attack Ponzi made, then getting companied by a rider as strong as Lutsenko was ideal to make the attack stick.
Perfect day!
Always happy to see old riders to well in Bilbao, although I kinda miss him at my team

What a cool race, the graphics made it look so much like the real thing. A bit uneventful but that last ascent was pretty fascinating.
It would have been a solid result had Claeys finished 5th, but losing those two spots at the end is kind of anticlimactic for us. 7th is reasonable nontheless. I mean Per deserved more.
Loved the report, thanks a lot Tamijo! And congrats on the victory, dev!

Fantastic from Boswell! And another great result by the team in Italy this year so I guess the pressure is on Dombrowski now to to do something big in Il Giro
Thanks for taking care of this race

Great to see Petrovski in the break, haven't seen him race much, but he put in a brave ride

Smart tactics by Kelderman rewarded with a satisfying podium spot!
Once Ponzi and Lutsenko expectedly got that gap, Wilco stayed out of the wind and kept his cool, just saving that little bit more energy compared to the rest.
In particular compared to his attack companion Skujins (sorry knockout..) and other strong puncheurs, third here is a really good result and, paired with hopefully good scoring in the Giro and Cali atm, helps us keep our pprd up on a high level.
Stüssi should've been rewarded with points for his great effort, sadly he just dropped out of the Top 50. With next years stats on lvl4, he might've been able to hang on for a big surprise.
Sadly, Mager only adds two points as he didn't seem quite up for it here. 102 points overall though.
Congrats dev, surely raising your mood after the Giro disappointment, and also congrats to Per and Großschartner for their rides.
And thank you very much tamijo for a stunning report with great shots, in particular with those graphics!

Obviously not achieving that Top5 Goal that we had here, but Bystrom 11th is a bit ahead of expectations, but even more impressive are Barrio 21th and Agostini 26th!! Over 50 points from this race, which is important to not lose so much with a slowish April we have. Though Per with that 5th place makes our performance kinda useless 
Congrats to Dev for Ponzi's win, which was so obvious before the start and thanks to Tamijo for the quick report!

Solid race excitement wise. Deserving winner and good report. 19th from JJ is effectively nothing, and I'd prefer if we weren't anonymous, but that's just kind of our MO this year.

Quevedo outsprints Betancourt for 35th which makes me happier than I should be actually. Of course we weren't going to be a factor in this race. Shame Zepuntke or someone else didn't went for the break seeing how someone like Per pulls an amazing result out of the bag.
Congrats to Hugo Boss! Thanks tamijo for the wonderful pictures and report.

Get wrecked. The Slovenian attacking machine has nailed it once again.
I was right though, besides Per
What a ride! Had completely written off this race to be honest, with Costa not here. This result is something special. Probably already justifies such a high wage loan.
Congrats on the win dev and thanks for the report, especially on such short notice Tamijo

God you're turning into another Croatia. This is your first reaction to an amazing unexpected result?

The only difference being he was in the Top 5 almost all of last season and I'm somewhere around 15th

Woo! This race really suits Bellis it seems as he overperforms to finish 8th?!?! Good race for us then as we really didn't expect too much looking at the startlist strength here.
Every point helps and thanks for the report!
