Have to agree with both Bjartne and hillis on the quality of the report. Thank you, cunego!
Rather anonymous start for our team here. Fingers crossed it doesn't mean we won't try for breakaways on the final two stages. Looking forward to see how they play out, especially stage 4, as it looks to be the Queen stage.
Well done on the win, hillis! |

We've been laying low in the first two stages without a sprinter and no breakaway appearance. Looks we showed the jersey a bit today at the front of the peloton 
Vysna made it through without any time losses and I guess that by the presence of our squad at the front, we should play a role in the final stage. The final stage is very much where we need to shine, hopefully Vysna can use his MO/HI stat combo well. Also we're looking in a decent place with some U25 pts if we manage tomorrow well
Looking forward to another nice report Cunego and congrats to the stage winners so far

Eiking showing off his powers, would've liked a time gap there. But i guess it was not ment to be... Let's hope he can cap it off tomorrow, as we really need this win 
Thank you for another amazing report

This was the stage I had hoped that Kump would have secured the green, but at least we stay in yellow for another day. Very surprised by the lack of gap seemed to be a pretty dominant gap?
Hopefully Kump has a good day tomorrow would be an awesome win for him!

Well done by Eiking, great race for Gjensidige so far!
Had hoped we joined the breakaway fun and the fight for the KoM points on this stage and stage 4, but clearly not to be. Strong placing by Wohrer in the sprint, maybe he can fight for a top 15/top 10 on the final GC, expecting stage 4 to be more selective than this one.
Thank you for the report again, cunego! |

Have to say Jans and the youngsters have done really well in this race so far. My only worry is that Jans can't stay with the pack in the final stage and they all drop back to help him. Hope PCM does us a favour and that doesn't happen.
Congrats to hillis and thanks for the report cunego

Only minimal gaps so far is kind of annoying, but it leaves everything left for the final stage which should be exciting. Goh should have a good chance if the mountain stat proves to be relevant. Not too confindent though, as we ve been so anonymouds so far.
Great racing from Eiking as usual. Congrats on an impressive win, hillis!

6 Tafjord-riders within the bottom 9 has to be some kind of a sad record |

Looks like Langkawi Kuss has a new friend in Basque Boswell. Very fortunate not to lose any time there. Hopefully he will be a be better tomorrow as really this is the most suited stage race to him on the calendar. I am not optimistic of a dramatic turnaround as tomorrow is harder. Having no protection probably didn't help as Siegel being dropped that early was pretty poor as well. First time I have really had a reason to complain about either of them this season.
Thanks for the great reports.

Not the best stage there from Paez but, with no gaps, he’s in with a decent shot of a result if he can perform on the final stage! Here’s hoping

Marko Kump, what a humungous ride by my son! Big time performance, what a joy to see him winning once more, especially this unlikely GC win!

Shitty Vysna all season long it seems 
Happy with the young lads. I had quiet hopes to dominate that classification and we needed to as most of our pts came from there. I think this is our 4th U25 victory of the season, this time Buitrago gets his moment to shine
Congrats WJ, Kump is loving life in CT

Don't I know PCM
For once, I'd like luck to favour us...
Congrats to the winners and thanks for the reports

Wow an interesting result that one but definitely a good one for the team!!
Ruben Fernandez, likely benefitting from a great day and some MO influence, taking a fantastic aggressive stage win and rocketing him up to 3rd in the GC. Paez on the other hand suffered and drops to 15th.
Overall a great race for the team and better than could be expected! Unfortunately it doesn't help our title fight given the HelloFresh dominance but huge congrats to them for the overall win here
Thank you for the great reports throughout cunego

Congrats to HelloFresh and Marko Kump.
Thank you for the great reports Cunego.
We fail yet another goal. I guess it was too much to ask of Eiking to defend his title here. 2 stage wins and 2 in the top 10 is good enough i guess..

Thanks for reports, been a wild 4 stages to follow Kumpi is having a party absolute monster performance from him today, if I did my calc correctly this nets us well over 150 points absolute insanity of a race. I still think there are a few who will be ok to feel hard done by there not being a gap created on stage 3 tho. Also absurd way to secure GC win with Gaspar snatching bonus points in the final, incredibly wild race to say the least.
Grats to LLS on the last stage win!

Thank you for an exciting report, cunego! That was a fun stage to follow. Well done and congratulations on the stage win, LLS. But the biggest congratulations must be for Kump and whitejersey. Great GC win, and also a surprising one considering how difficult this final stage was.
Nice to have Yzeiraj join the fun, eventhough he wasn't the right rider for this stage. |

Well that was a disaster, will not criticize Boswell, the fault lies with team management and planning as clearly that was not the race we thought it was. Although not the only ones to make that mistake.
If I am WJ I am beginning to ask if I can bank some of these points for next year, everything turning to gold. Congrats.
Thanks for the great reports again.

I'd love that feature tbh, but right now I have my eyes set on the points scoring record in the CT which I think I'd snatch if my projected points ends up being true considering the latest rankings update. And it's more than possible considering that Kump still has Lugano and Herald Sun Tour on the calendar to work with.

Annoyed that we couldn't ever be relevant the whole race except for the one acceleration from Goh in this final day. Pprd ratio is going to tale a sensible tumble I reckon.
Massive race from your team WJ, congrats mate! Thanks for all the reports cunego. Impressive work!
