Schadlich performed nicely.
I have no idea why i send Intxausti though, instead of Grabovski. I didn't even send Intxausti to Liechtenstein.

I sent Tenorio to Liechtenstein and not here, and kind of regret it, but I can hope for a top 5 there I guess.

Brilliant ride, Stake Laengen only being 16 seconds behind Erviti. That's mission completed 
And congratulations to Smowz. A smashing ride by Cancellara, and that win could prove valuable counting points at the end of the season. |

 Well.. Congrats to Smowz! 
2nd, 11th and 12th place, that will be a nice point count.. And that's quite good results I guess as well, but a goal missed isn't a good thing, thankfully a miss of that goal by one place won't be too big loss of money for the next season, I hope at least.

I'm not really sure what staying up pace looks like yet, but 52 points from this one sounds good to me.

Surprised Coppel lost this one, but Serget and Kreuziger made it up for Milka.
Top 10 for Posthuma is good. Was expecting a bit more from Vaugrenard, considering we were in France.

Nice one for Red Bull, congrats!
Podium plus 10th ain't bad at all for Oz.

 Yeesssssss 
Great feeling, I thought when Coppel rogerred Rogers Cancellara was surely going to be in between. But an absolutely FABulous ride from Cancellara.
I though Coppel would have been nailed on here, but I guess there is no such thing (apart from Madrazo winning the Vuelta perhaps) as a sure win goal.
Thanks for the congrats here - Red Bull's first Protour win.

Didnt expect a Cancellara win, feels like a good couple of seasons since his last big TT win. 8th is good for Kittel, while its nice to see my former riders Ford and Sergent achieve good results.

Wow that win really does make a difference, managing to match Milka in a time trial race is very useful - gives us a boost before the stage race triple header which without any hilly stars will likely be fairly barren.
It's obviously early days, but when I look at the bottom of the pile here you do start to wonder where Pendleton's points are going to come from? Gilbert, Gusev etc. could with catching a break or something in those stage races I think. I guess March/April is crucial for them to start making a move.

Eventhough Coppel didn't win Milka surely was the lucky team today...
Slightly dissapointed that Bernaudeau didn't make a couple of spots better, Kovalev did alright as did Donald. In retrospect I should have put Rolland instead of Donald though as he should've easily taken a top 20.
Three riders all in top 25 is decent though and bodes well for the future TTTs.

The chances of Intxausti doing a top 10 in Liechtenstein are slim though this season, so probably a good decision not to. Not having Grabovski here is a bit of a brainfart though

Don't like the look of those rankings. Better we move on I think. |

Yeah, i even send Yatsevich (74 TT) as my final rider. I probably just overlooked. In the end, i doubt it'll matter that much, but it's good to remember for next year.

Obvious 15 points from Herbiers for us.
The rankings still look fairly good so far, but I expect that to change quickly after the race clash week with Bennati and VDB our only sources of a few points.

You should sell him to Metinvest, that is clear.

I smell another battle of three big B (Bennati, Bewley, Boonen) at TA
