Grumbles.
I paid 650,000 odd euros, not a million (I think). But even so. I should win. I was told I would win. Damn it.
Indeed. I got 650k for Ignatiev, and over a million for Wiggins.
Meanwhile looking at the list, Stannard was bought for 55k - (although technically 325k in a combined deal with Kennaugh, the sprinter who doesnt seem to sprint anymore).
And look who just won the TT, beating Ignatiev and Wiggins 
Still, next stage will show why Ignatiev is much more worth it, he knows what hills are and likes them. Stannard's gone to bed crying about the next day, after the HUGE OVER THE TOP CELEBRATIONS OF COURSE!

I should have screwed you over on the Kennaugh-Stannard transfer, but no. I'm a nice person occasionally. I'm learning not to be.

3 in the top 10 isn't bad, but all three are good in the hills, and I want a podium. |

This is exactly what I was expecting from my team this year, and they are finally delivering, great win for Sylvain, hopefully he can hold on to second. |

Kami: I can offer no reasons as to why Goss just simply was not sprinting, Kocjan possibly with a 74 sprint stat and 71 TT is it? may have taken the 'leader' role and wished to be the sprinter too? Kennaugh sucked but at least seemed to go for most of the sprints.
6 jours de Dunkirque wrap:
El AL's three high positions meant and Calzatu's KOM meant it was a good week. Sicard needlessly gave away some points on the last day though. Wiggle with five men will be happy with their near 200 point haul. Pendletons and Pokerstars were really in the race throughout. A better race for Highroad here. but not one for Craven and Bimbo Nutella. 100% me and Bacardi's sprinters were appalling. As were Unicredits they had Borrajo and Gasparotto here and I don't recall seeing them once!
Here is the estimated points per team for the week in Dunkirk.
| Team | Points | Ratio | | El Al | 221 | 36.83333333 | | Wiggle | 199 | 33.16666667 | | Pendletons | 184 | 30.66666667 | | Pokerstars | 184 | 30.66666667 | | Highroad | 103 | 17.16666667 | | Bimbo Nut | 89 | 14.83333333 | | Intesa | 80 | 13.33333333 | | 100% Me | 34 | 5.666666667 | | Bacardi | 27 | 4.5 | | Unicredit | 21 | 3.5 |
Overall guestimate team positions:
| | | 1 | Ikea | 2496 | | 2 | Wiggle | 2008 | | 3 | UBS | 1920 | | 4 | Petronas | 1745 | | 5 | Pokerstars | 1648 | | 6 | Santander | 1580 | | 7 | Mercedes | 1572 | | 8 | 100% Me | 1553 | | 9 | Red Bull | 1441 | | 10 | Sport Lisboa | 1412 | | 11 | Pendletons | 1408 | | 12 | Bacardi | 1306 | | 13 | Bimbo Nut | 1244 | | 14 | Cillit Bang | 1229 | | 15 | Vespa | 1198 | | 16 | Lego | 1190 | | 17 | El Al | 1162 | | 18 | Telenor | 916 | | 19 | Pirelli | 911 | | 20 | Milka | 858 | | 21 | Intesa | 855 | | 22 | Yamaha | 743 | | 23 | Tinkoff | 730 | | 24 | Youtube | 714 | | 25 | Quiksilver | 555 | | 26 | Bbox | 530 | | 27 | Unicredit | 418 | | 28 | Highroad | 376 | | 29 | Falcon | 368 |
Points per race day:
| | | | 1 | Wiggle | 29.53 | | 2 | Ikea | 29.02 | | 3 | Pendletons | 28.16 | | 4 | Petronas | 25.29 | | 5 | 100% Me | 25.05 | | 6 | UBS | 24.94 | | 7 | Mercedes | 22.78 | | 8 | Bimbo Nut | 22.62 | | 9 | Red Bull | 22.52 | | 10 | Santander | 22.25 | | 11 | Pokerstars | 21.40 | | 12 | Lego | 21.25 | | 13 | Bacardi | 21.06 | | 14 | Sport Lisboa | 19.61 | | 15 | Pirelli | 18.98 | | 16 | Milka | 18.65 | | 17 | Cillit Bang | 18.62 | | 18 | Vespa | 18.43 | | 19 | Tinkoff | 15.21 | | 20 | Intesa | 14.02 | | 21 | El Al | 14.00 | | 22 | Quiksilver | 13.21 | | 23 | Telenor | 12.55 | | 24 | Youtube | 10.98 | | 25 | Yamaha | 9.53 | | 26 | Bbox | 8.41 | | 27 | Unicredit | 8.36 | | 28 | Falcon | 6.94 | | 29 | Highroad | 6.60 |

Not the best of GC's for us. Craven could have done better in the TT and that cost him a Top3 placing. Good job by Sabido,Chavanel and Olman ! |
