 [C2] Lincoln GP
Welcome to the 13th edition of the Lincoln GP.
The route consists of 13 laps on a 12 km circuit with one cobbled climb and a short kicker per round.
The race is typically won after solo attacks or sprints in small groups. The only multiple winner is Tsatevich, and with no former winner at the start he’ll be mentioned here again next season.

Looking forward to this. We have brought some semi-decent cobblers here, in hope for a few points.
Thank you so much kandesbunzler for the preview  |

Yet again it is Edmondson and Miltiadis riding with free roles here. This one is probably too difficult for Edmondson, yet I came with an outside hope that he could survive and sprint for secondary positions after the winning move.

A little late attack from Van Lerberghe or Roosen would be excellent here. Just have to hope our guys don't go too soon, as they've had a habit of doing!
Thanks for the preview KB, looking forward to the report on this one

Marzuki is killing it! What a season he’s having!
Miltiadis with yet another over performance for some minor points. I wonder if I should give him a small COB boost over the coming years :-)

Thanks for the race KB! Congrats to Laurens on the win. Happy to see Schappi cracking the top 10 and a couple of the other guys mixing it up with the attacks.

I really don't get Zepunkte this year. And maybe the PCT should let the CT get a win once? 
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

Why weren't we in this race?
Well, at least PCT teams are taking the big points. Congrats to the winners!

Well as expected no result. That's fine, almost finished all our cobbles races for the year.
Great report and congrats to the winner

Thanks for the report first!
What should i say? A classical Zepuntke this year it seems. I cant say its bad but its not great also, especially when you consider his skills that he should have.
But i stay positive and at least appreciate the points he scored ????
Congrats to Lotto and the win!

Thanks KB for the excellent report!
Wow, another victory from Marzuki. Not bad for a 50k pickup  The AI seems to like his statline a lot for these kind of hybrid cobble races. We gladly take the points!
I feel gutted (again) for Zepuntke and Würth.
