Just a prediction of the Zoncolan stage: Gibo will win (worth the guess) I have faith in my guy though |

again we've seen what I've been saying for ages is the single biggest problem with the game.
stages that have a few hills but the GC guys aren't expected to compete hard for it should be given a categorisation of FLAT. otherwise this happens. which is just idiotic. a break should be allowed to go in a stage like this. it just ruins the gameplay of three-week races especially. |

Top 10 for Plaza
I think we've found the order for our top 5, Piepoli should go SN for his stupidity alone

Not yet!
Di Luca needs to beat Simoni by 40 seconds in the final time trial and he takes 2nd.

if Simoni had grabbed 2nd overall this would've been a great Giro for Caisse,
but we come away with 2 wins and a podium finish, did we get the Teams in the eand or did Liquigas?

Even though there are no points for the Team results, Im quite interested in it anyway, if just for bragging purposes, when I have no one rider able to really earn any points (although 7th and 12th isnt bad overall)

not good concerning the break, i'm sure Richeze could've done something in the sprints

The top 20 GC riders all score points.
