Hm as expected this doesnt look great for us. The very short TT at the start wasnt to our liking but when Osborne ranks higher than Predatsch and Campenaerts i guess either he had the day of his life or both really were bad.
Stage 2 a classical Willi this year not really being able to show what he is capable of.
Thanks for the reports so far!

Oh, my heart sank when I saw my guys trying to form a sprint train. Hopefully it's a one off because Kennett is well positioned overall if he can just do his usual and sprint on his own
Thanks for the reports so far!

Hmm, it's not looking good so far. We desperately need two podiums to climb the GC now! Thank you lief for excellent reporting  |

Very happy with the team so far, but also a tad nervous now.
Eight minutes for the breakaway is a bit much for my liking, but with only three guys in it, I guess there wasn't any issue in reeling them in.
Hope we can secure a mass sprint finish again on the last day, as Page and Zariff seems to be working well together now, and Schomber and Kiflay should still be able to stay in the top 20 of the GC this way.

At least Kaislavuo got in the break to get valuable KOM-points. Maybe we dont leave home completely empty handed. Any consolidation points are welcome  |

No easy points for Mareczko it seems
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

Really annoying to see Kennett flop. I vaguely recall having doubts about sending Bennett here as it might confuse the AI...

No idea why we didn't join any breaks despite not having anyone for the GC. We just end up with U25 points for this but three in the top 6 is a nice return for sure.
Congrats to Caspi and thanks for the reports!

I think there has been a mistake. Why aren't we on the podium in S4?
Jokes aside, this has been a 10/10 race for us, even though we blew it in the last sprint. Winning the GC, Dennis in top 5, and two more in the top 20 mixed with the team classification and some nice stage wins, we have more than overdone the expectations.
Btw, Zariff still hasn't won a stage this season, but I guess he's forgiven now

Ehm, did that just happen? We'll take that!
Rudy might be the signing of the season, regardless of division?
Thanks for the great reports and work, and congrats to all the winners!

Well, 8th obviously wouldn't usually be a disaster but Kennett's "sprinting" really was messed up there. These things happen I guess. he'll probably win a C1 classic next week

Gibbons somehow stealthing his way to two top 5 stage performances and 5th in GC, complemented by Keizer's 10th place, make this a sneaky good race for us. Exactly the kind of points we need to be picking up at this stage of the season.
