I think it is Boonen himself, as he only post this exact comment..... Must be angry at all the people that gives Boonen stats in PCM

FreitasPCM - Indeed, hopefully Velits will survive the days ahead.
Beleg32 - Thank you
PCM rulezz - Indeed, thanks 
desimon95 - Quite ironic you post here,as I am the stat maker for the PCM.Daily DB  Boonen's sprint will stay the same, but if he might improve in V2, depends.
sutty68 - Thank you Sutty
0buKKaKe - Glad you liked it Konig is doing great, he got 7th in San Luis too, so he's defintely on form. Thank you once again, very much appreciated
Thanks guys, always appreciated. Just quick announcement, next stages will be posted in quick fashion. I just want to get to March faster, and be ahead of real season in cycling too.
Hope you okay with it guys. Algarve, Oman and Qatar will be all summarized, with two classics having full reports

Vuelta a Mallorca - Stage 4
Bunyola – Bunyola
Another tough stage in Mallorca. This time featuring several climbs on route to the finish. The longest climb should make out the selection in the peleton, with the small climb near the finishing looking most likely to decide the winner.
Movistar dominated the stage with Lastras finishing the job, once again. Nothing could have been stopped to stop him here. Velits didn't have a best day ( - 1 ), so we were dissapointed, but still kept 10th in GC.
Result
| 1 | Pablo Lastras | Movistar Team | 3h43'36 | | 2 | Alejandro Valverde | Movistar Team | + 24 | | 3 |  Vasil Kiryienka | Movistar Team | s.t. | | 4 | Mikel Astarloza | Euskaltel - Euskadi | s.t. | | 5 |  Leopold König | Team NetApp | s.t. | | 6 |  Fabio Duarte | Colombia - Coldeportes | + 50 | | 7 | Luis Felipe Laverde | Colombia - Coldeportes | + 1'07 | | 8 | Egoi MartÃnez | Euskaltel - Euskadi | s.t. | | 9 | Jesús Herrada | Movistar Team | s.t. | | 10 |  Vladimir Karpets | Movistar Team | s.t. | | ... | | 17 |  Peter Velits | Omega Pharma - Quick·Step Team | s.t. |
Vuelta a Mallorca - Stage 5
Magalluf – Palmanova
The finishing day looks like the easiest of the last 3 days, but it certainly isn't if the peleton will set strong tempo, which Movistar will likely do. With many short, but steep climbs many can loose out here, so we have to be extra careful today.
Result
Anton wins with great break win, after epic ride. If there's a stage you can call disaster - it's this. Velits with ( - 3 once again, it's been plaguing us here ), rode well, but lost contact and had to fight for survival. We are happy that he got 14th in GC after today.

Team’s Reaction
We achieved less than we came for, but still got nice podiums with Ciolek and alright position with Velits. Wasn't as planned, but after the tough days we happy we got even that. Certainly not best results our team past few days. We hope to improve in Qatar

Nothing you can do about such a strong Movistar team... As you said, not really the best race for you, but still not a total disappointment, you have something you build upon.

Movistar was just too strong, good luck in Qatar, Oman and Algarve. Cann't wait to see Boonen win the Omloop and K-B-K |

cunego59 - Exactly, we will definitely know where we have to improve and will definitely get better in next hilly race. Thanks
sutty68 - Indeed, true show of dominance.
0buKKaKe - We hope Tomeke is going to dominate at Omloop too And indeed, with Movistar is was complete nightmare for us. Thanks very much for your support
PCM rulezz - Me too, hope that Boonen will kick ass at Omloop Thanks
The Tour of Qatar is a road bicycle race race held in Qatar and is part of the UCI Asia Tour
The race consists of a men's competition over six stages, containing only flat stages, so it is usually won by a sprinter. High winds play an important part too. Sprinter is the likely winner of this Tour.
The Qatar Team
Our team didn't consist of super stars except one. Tom Boonen makes his debut here, his form is on increase, but we don't hope for much. Top 5 in GC would do suffice. Grabsch is his main domestique, with handful of younger talents including Kwiatkowski and Fenn.
Overall Standings
| 1 | Óscar Freire | Katusha Team | 15h55'39 | | 2 | Francisco Ventoso | Movistar Team | + 2 | | 3 |  Tom Boonen | Omega Pharma - Quick·Step Team | + 7 | | 4 | Denis Galimzyanov | Katusha Team | + 8 | | 5 |  Borut Božic | Astana Pro Team | + 15 | | 6 | Giacomo Nizzolo | RadioShack - Nissan | + 16 | | 7 |  Tony Gallopin | RadioShack - Nissan | + 31 | | 8 | Robert Förster | UnitedHealthcare Pro Cycling Team | + 38 | | 9 | Bert Grabsch | Omega Pharma - Quick·Step Team | + 46 | | 10 |  Michal Kwiatkowski | Omega Pharma - Quick·Step Team | s.t. |
Oscar Freire wins the overall with Team Katusha taking three stages, including TTT. Freire coming from TdU with good form, showed true class winning two sprints. Ventoso and Božic took stage each, with Boonen topping it off on the first stage with great victory for himself.
Memorable Pictures
There aren't many great pictures in this barren land, here's the two I like most, that don't contain anything associated with sprints
Winds are the only way to loose any time in Qatar !
Omega Pharma cruising to a great 2nd in TTT !
Team’s Reaction
After disappointing Challenge of Mallorca, at last some success. Boonen get his first win of the season, as well as making a GC podium which we are more than content with. Grabsch and Kwiatkowski do great to get into Top 10 too. Overall a great team performance. Really pleased with 2nd in TTT too.

I just love Boonen Hope that you'll have a lot of success with him throughout this year, this looks promising already. And nice report, very straight-to-the-point, but still every information that is needed. And for Qatar, you picked two very nice screens! What's next? Oman?

Same, love the guy Thank you, glad you liked it I don't really like playing Qatar, so glad it's over really
Here's our calendar for the month. So it's Oman ( Boonen, De Weert ), and Algarve ( Martin, Levi ) before going into the 3 classics.Should be interesting

Nice results with Boonen. I'm also playing with Quick-Step, and i have just finished with Oman, unfortuneately without any victories yet. I got a 2nd with Chicchi in Oman, though |

FreitasPCM - We hope the same
jt1109 - Thank you Same, Qatar in PCM isn't the best race to play.
jona777 - Thank you Jona. Boonen's goals for the season are the Cobbled Classics. He then takes break and will ride Dauphine to prepare himself to win RR Belgian Nationals before final season goal of the Tour. He'll be our main sprinter at the Tour, with Ciolek as his leadout. Martin, Grabsch, Chavanel and Terpstra will form the train too, should be awesome train for Boonen He would ride Worlds, but it's too hilly for him
purepasd - Thank you. Well done chicchi isn't good rider to get many good results, so 2nd is quite an acheivemnt in Oman especailly
First reports from Oman coming later today
