Ten seconds from achieving a goal, but no of course not. Stupid startlist. FUUUUU!
Thomas Schwabe with some solid action though, nice!

Retarded AI thanks to what looks like 'narrow roads syndrome'. I can think of no earthly situation where an 80MO should lose 13min's on a stage like that.... f*ck sake he was beaten by Lumiere
While the narrow road was a part of the problem, it was mostly that when the split happened the whole dropped group just sat up. Probably because all the teams had a rider in the front group...

Just to say I'm back after my month away. Won't go on a Cio-esque catch up spree, just wanted to applaud Dan Martin and Adam Yates on their performances in P-N and T-A and scold Andy Talansky for his lacklustre T-A and his crashing out in Catalunya. Also Hintermüller 5th at Crit Int, beating Quintana, fuuuuucccckkkkk yeeeeeaaaaaaaahhhhhh!!!!!

Fuck yeah, Belkin power! Great Criterium for us!
Catalunya, well. Top 10 was always going to be hard, so it's nice to see Sanchez try something rather then wait for the unevitable.
About the goals, a lot of teams have missed the goal by a very small margin (including my E3 win goal which was decided by centimetres). In general, I think because of the higher number of managers, the goals for CT teams in particular will be made a bit easier next season part
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

Incredible Criterium International for Cofidis, achieved our top 10 goal and somehow beat Belkin to the team award!

Schleck crashes and Lipawsky gets dropped. Not a good day for us.

Yeah, I noticed that as well, your third rider did a lot better than mine, well done

And a short ranking update before we go into the final races (if any reporter thinks he might be in time trouble, let me know please ). Omega Pharma and Trek make a big comback thanks to the cobbles. Lotto and Tinkoff are in trouble, while Giant is still struggling. FDJ is seeing AG2R coming closer, though both are looking good for promotion, they're even winning the Battle for France against Europcar. Champion System is still fighting for the WT, but it's all really close. Cofidis wins a few spots after a good Criterium International, while Androni is not yet living up to its expectation. Drapac manages to do decent in their first season, holding off 3 teams.

I've raced GP Indurain, I should have it up in the coming days at the most.
Also I hoped for a little better after 2nd in San Luis and 4th in T-A by Kangert. Him and Ryder will be vital for survival. |

Still can't believe how well FDJ.fr has been doing this season part! Excellent consitency balancing out a lack of big results. In no small part aided by 3rd in TDU or Top10's in the WT cobbled classics. And should pick up some good upgrades as well.

How the hell are we doing so badly?
Purito disappointing in Catalunya. Need an improvement on that performance if we are going to get anywhere near our win goal.

Awesome to see that we are climbing up the table instead of struggling near the bottom. Great improvement |
