Nice Tour Down Under, Davis was a king of sprints there. And strange tactics by Bianchi team, Ciolek is probably not a team rider
Or you see that it's a game There are still many races left to crush the field
Unfortunetly the next race for us is after Wellington, San Luis, Mediterrrererernanenenen and the Mumbai Cyclothon 1..
The Vuelta a Mallorca with Cobo and De la Fuente..

Jayco - Red Bull thus won the teams classification, by the narrowest of margins
Not quite.
According to UCI rules, the amount of daily team classification wins determines the winner in the event of a tie. Jayco won 3, Puma 2. A tie would have been enough for Jayco
When did this suddenly become the UCI Management Game?
Delighted to see Jayco Red Bull really giving a very string account at the Tour Down Under, highlighted by Gerrans' stage win. The Bianchi meltdown on stage 5, was also very good news for us moving our guys ever forwards in the hunt for high GC classifications.
Not able to challange Davis' domination, he was a different class. It already looks like having decent sprinters is worth the investment this year.
I look at the team rankings and it is really very good reading for us. Promotion challengers like VolksWagen and Bianchi sort of hacking their way round Venezuala barely doing anything of significance and the two teams ahead sort of had massive specialists for the races so far.
