Great attacking stage for Choi, did not think he would be up tp 4th in the GC after this stage. Great team support as well.
Congrats to Croatia and thanks for the report Fab

Looks like it won't be just a "wildcard" race for us. Terrible prologue from Pogacar, but then he overperforms by quite a lot on the big mountain stage 
Nice to see Bouchard on the attack, but he probably should be winning that KOM and wearing the jersey now. Hopefully Pogi's new GC position doesn't prevent him from going in more breakaways.
Borisavljevic is just super consistent this season, remains to be seen where he'll finish at the end of the race. But just the fact he's in the top 20 after two important stages is very impressive. Nice ride from Crncevic also

What an awesome report, and likewise the first HUGE performance by Tao for us. This way we're very well set for the race, that's what we signed (and trained) him for. Awesome ride and a worthy Phinney "replacement" for us. Stellar!
Maybe the planning was actually correct then, congrats

Not the best by Keizer, but that's what we expected. Would be nice to see Lopez Nolasco finish in the top-8 of the U25's Thanks for a thrilling mountain-stage report, Fab!

Happy that we grabbed a stage win, even if we almost lost it at the last second 
TGH should be pretty confident as I dont feel that stage 3 will be selective (I personally need it to be  ) but I do feel stage 6 could still be a strong stage for Morton. Either way, I feel we need to do much better in the TT to grab a podium finish here which I feel should be the lower end of expectations here.

A rare Žalgiris breakaway appeaeance, but damn it did work out in a PHTC race nonetheless. Maybe Tediashvili doesnt want to be sold next year

A boring stage for us and probably a few more of those coming.
Congrats to Project: Africa

Loving Almeida's exploits here. Stupendous performance on stage 2. Probably going to crash out of the top10 in the last stage but it's already an overperformance from him so cant complain.
Stage was crazy. Historic ride from Seibeb. So many accolades in just one day. It's a pity Rachid lost the train and dropped a few places, otherwise he could push some places in the GC in TT, but we can't get everything I guess.
Superb reports, Fab, thanks for your brilliancy!

Awesome to see Seibeb doing so well, congrats Aidan! Surely makes up for whatever that was from Berhane. Nice stage to follow, great reporting as always

Not Keizer's best work, but we were expecting that. It would be fantastic to see Lopez Nolasco place among the top eight in the U25 division. Fab, thanks for the exciting mountain stage report!
This bot gets it.
Hoped for someone to join the break, but alas. At least Keizer got back to the leading (GC) group and managed to gain two places in the GC Once again a fabulous report, Fabian, thanks for that

Good stage for us, hopefully securing the lead for 2 more days. Stages 6 and 7 will be crucial, but have to be happy for now.

It's been a crazy race and this flat stage doesn't disapoint. Back to back victories for Project: Africa is at least unexpected. Congrats aidan.
Also nice little escapade by Howson to climb some places in the Points classification. Loving our home race so far!

Abdul Halil with a decent effort there, even though it looked as though he was a little confused to be in such a position at the end Good work by the chickens, hopefully he can repay that later in the race.

Close shave on Stage 2 with Choi struggling but he got back to safety in the end and remains in a good GC spot. Kuroeda was not strong enough to contest on Stage 3, not that we were expecting him to.
Congrats to Aidan on the back to back wins and thanks for the reports Fab

Nice effort by Siric, I didn't expect to get screen time on a sprint stage.

lvl 1 Stojnic, level 2 Hoole and level 4 Abdul Halil is one of the most overrated sprint trains to ever brace the MG. They just didn't want to go all in because of sparing the other teams the total domination of Abdul Halil
It was fun to see my team active at the front of the race all day, but as soon as I read they were also making (the only) sprint train I knew it was over before it really started
Thanks for the report, Fab, I believe I even spotted you on one of your boats next to Thun.
