I just don't get Beltran this season. At all.
Cool to see EBH win, congratulations, CT! 39 seconds down to Bobridge also should make for an interesting TT. |

Great job by Tratnik to secure the KoM! And also very strong strage by Kangert; this puts him in a promising spot. Ginanni and Bibby were quite dissapointing though.

Love it Matej, proactive racing rewarded well though the gap isn’t huge. De Bie will need a great day to grab the GC (though really PCM15 does whatever it pleases with a TT), Bobridge is ominous too though looking for his first Gc win in a home tour!

The hope that Boom doesn`t lose too much here, didn`t work out.
But seeing he worked hard for De Bie to make it possible for him to attack and create a gap was even better.
Not sure about the time gaps now in the TT but basically everything from 2nd to 10th is possible now I guess with hopes being high to acchieve a top2-5 only. |

Awesome finish by EBH! I had hoped for an earlier attack to increase the gaps, but oh well...
Very interesting TT coming up! |

Late to the party here but nice to see Reinhardt take a surprise podium on the sprint stage, and for Trofimov to not lose too much time in the hills. He should have some advantage in the TT to move up within the top-10, so I expect a good result from him in this one.
Congrats to Crue for another EBH win. And great race so far Marco!

Great job by Mohoric wow! Also Kump with a decent job. Also: Groselj looking very good, and with his TT-Skills to the hand he might have a shot of earning us some points which is very cool!

Another “meh”-result. Van der Hugenhaben did fine, but Koretzky really should have done better.

13th for Boswell here seems fair.
Thanks for the reports.

Not sure whether I'm happy or not. Kump very good on the last day saving his race, on the other hand Mohoric slightly underwhelmind in comparison to Ponzi, de Bie, etc,. Groselj couldn't convert the good set up to a result, which is a shame, but that would've been a bonus anyway. Solid preperation for Lombardia.

Beltran with a very good TT performance. Annoying it doesn't really count for anything considering the overall. Here's for hoping he ends the season on a high in Maroc, where the level on the hills is quite a lot worse.
Brilliant TT by EBH to secure the overall. Congratulations, CT, while Bobridge will need to wait another year to win a race that suits him perfect.
Thank you for reporting the race, Marcovdw. |

An enjoyable final GC for Puma, with Kelderman not disappointing in the TT to finish 7th overall. 20th for Bol and 50th for Declerq add good points that we didn't dare to expect beforehand.
Weinstein's stage 1 adventure nets him Top 10s in the points and KoM, which add up nicely with what he got for second in GC there.
Congrats to CT! EBH with a great display of form here. And thank you Marco for the race reports.

This has been a very succesful ToT for Gazelle. Kangert finishing on the GC podium is nothing short of amazing. Then there's of course Tratnik with the KoM win and as cherry on the pie we also grabbed the TC win in the last stage.
Congrats on a nice EBH win and thanks for the great reports Marco!

5th is OK by Vlatos, although he is beaten by some “lesser” guys. Robin Van der Hugenhaben finishes the season by performing the best result, is very nice. 15th is good enough, while I would have hoped for Koretzky to be around there too.

Poor result from us as expected. At leat it's cool to see both Fiedler and Zmorka shine on the final day.
Congrats CT!

De Bie
Beaten by basically every GC rider and losing out on all those with several stats lower in TT.
6th in GC is still okay but I really wanted the podium or at least a top5 here. Unnecessarily lost. |
