HelloFresh really did well this month due to their steady scoring on many terrains. Mountains in Catalunya, Hills and sprints in Southland or the three early cobble classics.
Aramco following due to mainly Catalunya while Trans Looney as well had a strong race in Spain.
Crabbe mainly scored then in the cobbles and by the look of it, they really could continue to do so in March/April.
At the bottom Tafjord really with a low scoring month but also BNZ, Eddie Stobart, Gjensidige or BWT Hyundai far from a good month.
| Team | Vca | GW | GPH | Cat | Ukr | ToS | | | HelloFresh | 95 | 51 | 49 | 172 | 0 | 111 | 478 | | Aramco DP | 0 | 37 | 0 | 238 | 0 | 31 | 306 | | Trans Looney Tunes | 41 | 19 | 27 | 179 | 0 | 4 | 270 | | Crabbe-CC Chevigny | 69 | 136 | 27 | 29 | 0 | 0 | 261 | | Strava | 0 | 77 | 7 | 55 | 0 | 51 | 190 | | McCormick Pro Cycling | 0 | 21 | 0 | 63 | 0 | 49 | 133 | | Volcanica - Fox | 0 | 0 | 0 | 105 | 0 | 16 | 121 | | Pas Normal Studios - Mikkeller | 0 | 51 | 32 | 37 | 0 | 0 | 120 | | Glanbia Foods Cycling Project | 0 | 0 | 0 | 97 | 0 | 13 | 110 | | BWT Hyundai N Cycling | 0 | 7 | 0 | 67 | 17 | 2 | 93 | | Gjensidige Pro Cycling Team | 0 | 0 | 0 | 46 | 0 | 16 | 62 | | Eddie Stobart | 32 | 9 | 0 | 18 | 0 | 0 | 59 | | BNZ-Superhero Racing | 0 | 8 | 0 | 9 | 0 | 29 | 46 | | Tafjord Kraft | 0 | 0 | 0 | 9 | 0 | 0 | 9 |
HelloFresh also taking the lead in the full ranking, though they used a few more race days as the others, if you do it on such high PpRD though, it won`t hurt you usually.
Crabbe, Aramco, Trans Looney and McCormick following then. Just like last year McCormick starts to drop after a very good January performance. At least their depth is a lot better now to realisticaly score with more riders this season.
At the bottom Tafjord, BNZ, Eddie Stobart and Hyundai. They really need to start scoring soon to avoid a pretty weak all year performance.
Pos | Last | | Team | Total | RD | PpRD | Proj | 1 | - | | HelloFresh | 571 | 29 | 19,69 | 2954 | 2 | - | | Crabbe-CC Chevigny | 356 | 26 | 13,69 | 2054 | 3 | - | | Aramco DP | 355 | 22 | 16,14 | 2421 | 4 | - | | Trans Looney Tunes | 319 | 24 | 13,29 | 1994 | 5 | - | | McCormick Pro Cycling | 306 | 29 | 10,55 | 1583 | 6 | - | | Strava | 257 | 22 | 11,68 | 1752 | 7 | - | | Gjensidige Pro Cycling Team | 233 | 30 | 7,77 | 1166 | 8 | - | | Glanbia Foods Cycling Project | 230 | 28 | 8,21 | 1232 | 9 | - | | Volcanica - Fox | 206 | 29 | 7,1 | 1065 | 10 | - | | Pas Normal Studios - Mikkeller | 189 | 15 | 12,6 | 1890 | 11 | - | | BWT Hyundai N Cycling | 158 | 31 | 5,1 | 765 | 12 | - | | Eddie Stobart | 109 | 16 | 6,81 | 1022 | 13 | - | | BNZ-Superhero Racing | 98 | 24 | 4,08 | 612 | 14 | - | | Tafjord Kraft | 60 | 24 | 2,5 | 375 |
Enric Mas is leading the table but it`s still very close as Iino, Potocki, Tsatsevich or Kump, Martin, Salinas, De Vos are not far from them. Some of them really belong to the expected top3-5 scorers, some others still a bit lower such as Amador in 11th, Vanspeybrouck or Vanmarcke waiting for the big cobbles, Eiking still trying to find his success, Meyer or Chaves.

I was expecting to be bad, but not that attrocious. Catalunya was good, but not good enough. In Gent he had to make do with what we had at our disposal as this team unlike Crabbe isn't going beast mode on cobbles. Ukraine was pointless excusrsion (even though we've scored more points than Cedevita and Jura - Fiat, but not much) and Southland was a total disaster

As I said before the season, HelloFresh should not have any competition for the title. Crabpack and Aramco also looking good!
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

If we remove those 17 points, I'd be with 76 points and nothing would fundamentally change. Ever since I've joined the MG bad things happen there and even if I'm on the up it's immediately squandered. And I'm honestly getting frustrated of the lack of consistent success which affects my motivation honestly.

Great update for us, making a major jump + finally our first win for Strava 2.0

Not too bad considering cobbles was always going to a zero pointer.
My only race in March is already over (1 point) so I'm guaranteed to fall back a bit but pprd shouldn't take too much of a hit. As long as Dan Martin keeps scoring I can hope my Time Trialers and Sprinters can push us up too.
My big worry this year is that my Tour of America team is weaker. That's normally a big one for me so will have to score more consistently over the season. Two or three promotion spots already looking safe

Super happy with this month! Also I am just going to reel in Adam The Boss being 8th place in the individual rankings, it just kinda shows how ridicilous his opening to this season has been. Thanks for the update , hopefully the projected points becomes the truth!

Our first few races where the big boys come to town and we scored very well. Relative normality restored in regards to the table.
Mas with 5 RDs currently leading the Individual Classification. Paez also in the top 10 but having had quite a few more RDs.
The big thing for us as well is that Jakobsen and Cosnefroy haven’t raced prior to this update and I’d expect them to be big points scorers.
Will be a good battle at the top of the CT standings!

Still pretty much riding Tachira and the weak field there to respectability. Think there is still a lot more downside than upside with McNulty over performing and Boswell already using significant days.
HelloFresh and Aramco looking very strong.
Thanks for the update.

The cobbles rendered us nothing, as expected (although the beginning of March came with a very nice surprise). Unfortunately we under performed heavily at Southland and that made us suffer. Villalobos brought us some points, but not as much as we needed. Perhaps Amador and Chaves would preform better and help us make a push for promotion. If not we have to do as much as possible to reach our season goal, top 10. |

Catalunya really changed everything for my team. I thought we would get only a few points but at the and stage and GC win that was a big surprise for me.
I think it will be hard to compete with HelloFresh and Aramco on all terrains and it's nice to watch the battle with Hello, Crabbe, and my team on cobbles as at the end of the stage or race I'm always nervous if Pieter will be able to hold on.
Thanks for preview Roturn.

Wow, contenders for worst CT-team in history?
I'm glad we're having a long term focus, cause this is depressive reading
Thank you roturn for putting this up for us! |
