Nice to see our loanee Rodriguez Galindo in the break on consecutive stages to end the race. A podium on final stage and securing the KoM at such a prestiguous PT race is a nice start to his palmares. Hopefully this is some reward for Vesuvio manager SN for taking him on for the season .

It's a shame Castroviejo lost his place in the top 10, but at least Lammertink made his way back into the top 20.

Brilliant to see Boasson Hagen get his first GC win with us. The final stage played out perfectly with no dangerous riders in the break and no potential bonus seconds for Trofimov.
Must admit I got scared when I saw he was 21 seconds behind with 6 kilometers left, but luckily that looked to just have been a careless moment.
Thanks for the congratulations, and also nice to see Quickstep finally get their season started as well, though, admittedly not with the rider you would expect from that team.
Thanks a lot for the reports, roturn. Boasson Hagen doing well made them flawless, I think |

This was a cool race, glad to have been in it. Congrats to ember!
Konrad joining the break secured us the win in the Team Classification! Pretty funny, considering our best rider in GC is 21th.
Together with Furdi's stage-win, this has been a nice trip to PT for our riders.

Wonderful aggression from Rodriguez Galindo in the final two stages to take 3rd on the final stage and the KoM jersey. Really great riding!
Schleck slipping back now. Prefer to see more from him than we saw here, only 16th and not much to shout about.
A couple of good days for Van der Lijke too - particularly on the day Schleck was badly positioned. Would have been nice to see him more involved in the sprints, but not an easy field for that.

Thanks for the reports roturn. Solid but unspectacular from us here, perhaps a little disappointing that we didn't go in the breaks considering how successful they were. |

Two stage wins and the green jersey makes this a good race for us. Second in the mountain classification is also a bonus. I had hoped beforehand to be a little bit higher in the GC, but I guess this is what I can expect of Van Stayen at this level.
Aker with a very successfull week with two stage race victories. Congratulations to them and thanks to Roturn for the reports! Enjoyed reading them.

That was far more than I could have expected for - what a nice thing for Diggle to be in yellow in a race - not sure that's happened before! But I feel very let down by my sprinters. Seems a large chunk of my budget and bad race planning this season will be put badly to the test.
Thanks for the reports, as always great to read!

Sorry for being inactive lately.
Mohs and his support made a great job, which caused he even wore yellow jersey after stage 3. Unfortunately, AI didnĀ“t recognize who is the true leader with high ambitions for GC from my team. As a result Roche underperformed heavily, finishing 22nd far behind many weaker opponents. Very disappointing stuff!
Congrats to ember and thanks for reports!
