I also haven`t played much cobbles in PCM11. But I think this works fine.
Worked fine in PCM10 with Breschel and Cancellara, so should also work fine in PCM11 with Burghardt-Steegmans. |

That was a big surprise! The peloton seems too lazy these days. A great result for especially Pendleton's Twicer I think, as they don't have a star for cobbles, but still manages to grab 2nd place. |

In careers it works. I think it might be a problem with so many similar possible winners. So no team wants to help all the others.
In real there are 2-3 big teams with 1-2 big men for the cobbles. Here it`s like 10 teams with a big man. |

Wow, great race! In a race like Omploop Het Volk isn't breakaway winning that big surprise, but I am still really happy that Verbist took really surprising 4th place, unfortunetely his sprint is really bad. Bewley had solid race - 2nd place if I count only favourites and 6th place if I count everybody, that's good. I go quite nice package of points, 214 points in total from this race, that's good start of the cobble classics for Milka.

Well that was...hum...surprising. Superb Joseph and disappointing Franzoi.
Anyway, third win of the season. Too bad we won't be anywhere near the top when it's all said and done and now we will have to deal with high wage demands but a win is always nice

I fear the breaks are allowed too much time in pcm11.
All my riders finished, so I guess that's a win

This, i have never seen so much breaks make the end as in PCM 11. In my carreer i have even seen a break win Milan San Remo (without me having a top favorite at all) ...

Well I guess this race is the least cobbled of the cobbled ProTour races. So whilst it is disappointing for the true specialists to miss out a bit on this one I think they will be back on form for the other cobbled races.
Congrats to Pearl Adidas and definately Pendleton's very useful points indeed for those two team. Pendleton's couldn't have possible expected to be even in the top 10 here.

So close to a Top 10 finish for Fenn. That's his only aim out of the cobbles this season, nice also for him to be the best Brit finisher, especially as Thomas is so similar to him.

8 finishers - that's exactly what I was hoping for.
And Duque got more that minimum points. |

That was a dissapointing race. Not ao much for me as 12th is about right, but because of the lack of willingness to dó anything from the favorites. Too bad Sentjens didn't sprint though.

A podium by Fouquet! Now thats unexpected. And with Ballan 8th it's quite a few more points than I expected. Brilliant!
