Keough does love it in Malaysia. Despite the pressure on the jersey kept his head got a good position an finished it in style.

The back and forth battle for the GC lead was intense, but it was the fianl day of this battle ad tomorrow the real GC battle will commence.
Thanks for the report. I'm really anticipating the next few stages

Going to have to lodge a complaint with the stage designer about the number of intermediate sprints. A prologue win, stage win and stage 3rd and Keough hanging on to the GC lead by the skin of his teeth. Lucky he has been at his best.
As others note the real battle starts tomorrow.
Thanks for the great reports Nemo.

Decent stuff from Dan but looked like he was having a good day and could have pushed a bit more !
Tomorrow looks like ideal for a break but I'd rather Bennett had one more sprint opportunity.
Thanks Nemo

What is my team doing
Borisavljevic an anonymous 9th and Mas barely scraping his way into that group in 16th...
Absolutely need better on the final stage and maybe they can add some excitement to tomorrow's stage too!
Thanks for the report and a reluctant congrats to HelloFresh

Yeah that's gotta be a rough one for you to watch the combo of Boris and Mas shouldnt be done by Heymes like that, might just be a combined bad form day.
Speaking of Heymes, what a day from him setting up Elissonde for great success! Hopefully we're able to keep this momentum up and come out with a GC win!

Wow, that was terrible from Kuss, getting solidly beaten by his young teammate Revard among many others. He was never well positioned. Only good news is the time gaps aren't huge so a chance to make up ground on the last stage but top 5 is looking tough.

A special moment for me as a reporter to see Finkler taking the stage, as he's the first rider ever that I suggested able to win anything. He'll never be a world class rider, not even maxed, but should be an okay domestique. Happy that he got a chance to prove himself at Gjensidige, and I hope he gets renewed there

Wow, that was unexpected for sure.
Ulysbayev killing himself for Finkler, and then Finkler bringing it home. Amazing.
Cool that you got to report it aswell Nemo!

Given how strong Keough looked in the sprint would have been nice to see us working on the front to shut down the break.
Points jersey looks pretty secure though which is nice, now need Kuss to shift the race from horrible to mediocre.

Proud of our youngsters in the breakaway, KOM jersey and almost snatching away the stage victory. Thanks for the reports Nemo and congrats hillis91 with the stage win!

Another nothing stage for us and not being involved in the finale, the breakaway or any mid-stage attacking but our focus is on the final stage now!
One last opportunity for Mas to prove himself this season and what better time to do it
Thanks Nemo for the reports thus far, eagerly awaiting the finale

Mixed feelings about that one to be honest.
Really happy that Mas won the stage and moves up the GC to 3rd but he clearly had the energy and my team appeared to be dominating the stage so I have no idea why he didn't attack earlier and make back the time to win the GC.
Ah well. We'll settle for a Stage Win, 3rd in the GC, 11th in the GC and 4th in the KOM.
Thank you Nemo for the amazing reports and congrats to HelloFresh for the GC win!

Aaarh, not how we wanted to finish this.
But, we'll take 22nd in GC + Stage win + 2nd in Teams
Thank you Nemo for the allways amazing reports and congrats to HelloFresh

Damn you, Mas! DAMN YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!
Just kidding there, but only on half the time. Congratulations, LLS, on the stage win! And also congratulations, whitejersey, on the overall win!
Great showing by Herrada. I cannot fault him missing the last stage and he was awesome in securing a top 5 for us. Also Erick Herrera got a great result for him with the 13th overall and winning the U25 classification. Gabriel Marin added some top 5 finishes on a couple of stages, so the team did quite well here without their leaders.
Thank you Nemolito for the great reports!

That wraps up Dan Martin's season, was hoping for a little more.
Overall though a Top 10, stage win and 2nd in Points means this was an Ok race
Thanks Nemo and well done to all winners

Awesome that we get away with a GC win here for Elissonde.
Also congrats to LLS on the stage win, nice to see that Mas/Boris being done by Heymes was a one off.
Also congrats to Strava of all teams on taking the team GC. They had a somewhat quiet race but ended up performing really well!
Again thanks for the reports Nemo!
