Everyone else needs to stop doing so well 
Always like Strade Bianchi, I'll take the top 10 from here and hope for better results soon

This one I wasn't expecting to end in a breakaway win. It seems that the profile was more preponderant than the flat rating, and that flooded the top5 with some unexpected puncheurs. It's nice to see such a vivid race when the AI is being so criticized because of the opposite though. And loved the report as well, very nice job Smowz.
I had hopes of a top5 but I won't mind with an 8th place in such a contested event. Congratulations roturn, it has been a good week for you I reckon

Rothaus making a strong early bid for promotion, congratulations 
I can't wait to see the next rankings update after quite a lot of races in the past days.
The speed this season progresses is astonishing, the first two months - admittedly the ones with probably the fewest race days - done in just 5 weeks hopefully bodes well.
Thanks to all the reporters for this effort!

Well, the sooner we can get through this season and the sometimes dodgy AI, the better. Therell be a February summary, although now it wont just be for Febrjuary with March already going

Well I'm glad that got selective. Even though Gautier couldn't finish it off I'll take 12th, 14th and 16th.

Great report Smowz, with beautiful screens. All the reporters are making incredible job, coming with quick and great reports. 
Nolan Hoffman continues to score and we met our unofficial goal of making top5 with his 5th place, shame that he did not have more domestiques fresh and in the pack, to chase the late break.
We did all the job with Vespa!
Congrats to Rothaus, Bellis will win tons of stages/races this year.

Nice win. Indeed a great day for Bellis. 
Had hoped for the win but haven`t really believed it.
Nice report as others have already said. |

Much more selective race than I expected. Good to see that it didn't end up in a mass sprint from an intact peloton.
Great job with the report, and congrats roturn!

Excellent outcome! Coudln't expect much better with no great hilly rider.
Great report too. I see my two month old prediction of Rothaus being dark horse for promotion is turning out spot on as well.

That's quite a bad typo there .
Think you lost a podium spot to Elijzen because of blocking riders, but i won't complain.

Who's the "Vaseline" guy riding for my team?
Two riders in the Top10 is good, congrats to Rothaus. Scary how many points they scored recently...

Yep
Dunno, possibly. However it was annoying to see this, but I would have taken Top 5 before the race easily so I am definitely happy with the result.
I am but frustrated though why the hell was my team chasing whenver we had Maar up in the break, what got into them
