I can't decide what to be most annoyed about - another breakaway win, Turgis getting dropped, or Bettiol not even making the top 50. Given my season so far I can't complain, but it's still a bit of a let down.
Congrats jaxika and thanks for the reports Nemolito! |

Another heccy stage, favoring us this time though. This has gone probably as best as it could have, with >15 pprd I can't complain

Great stage for Kraftwerk. Scheit in the break today finishing with a 4th on the stage and 23rd GC. Solid support for Bilbao moved him up to 5th GC and Bol kept his top 35 which resulted in a Teams win. A good points haul for Kraftwerk.
A win for Waeytens! Congratulations to MOL and thanks to Nemo for the great reports.

Wtf was this race, Claeys looking good for one day but then deciding to nap on the second. Ah well, hilly races aren't my main source of points anyway. Congrats MOL, thanks Nemolito!

Well, at least this time we worked to have someone in the winning break. But of course it was Rodriguez doing the big relay just before the sprint so he lost all chances to win. At least 5th in the stage, 22nd in GC and 3rd in U25 give a few points, more than i could expect before the race i guess

I hope everyone apart from the teams in the breakaway are happy that we did most of the work today, just to make this race have a somewhat normal outcome 
2nd in the end is a good result that I would have taken before the race, but with no stage results, no depth by using the entire team to work. This still leaves a bitter taste in the mouth 
Only bright side of this race is that Beltran finally showed up as the best puncheur in PCT. Why it took him 2/3 of the season to do it, who knows??
Thanks for your work on two very difficult reports Nemo

To win a stage in a race I've totally forgot that I've sent a team is an achievement I guess?
Congrats to the winners. And congrats to Nemolito for the reports

Great to see Beltran delivering too. It was about time for an uptick in form!

Man, what a stage!
We were so close to having a superb result here. Goh was outstanding, just lacking that final bit of energy to finish the job.
Borges a bit underwhelming but at least securing the top10.
Craziest stage in a while. Loved the report, wondeful job Nemo! And congrats to MOL. Waytens really found a second life to his career this season!

Really thought Houle had a shot to at least do something on one of the stages here. Sadly mistaken (even though I still think on paper he should be doing better). Thanks for the reports Nemo
