AMEX sprinters disappoint - again
Grillo 11th
Not good enough.
We need a breakaway win.

You guys should contact Avin, have yourselves a support group or something

Although Dutch/Belgian, this is not Gazelle's kind of tour. We're only here for HC band reasons. Would be cool to get into a breakaway. No points expected.

Phew, that was close to anonymity on the line.
Great to see he edged out Cav in the end, just like with F1, you don't just lose 4 seconds but 8 if you switch 2nd and 3rd places with a direct opponent.
Goss can be caught with consistency.
As it is an HC race, the top 50 in GC receive points at the end, so having our weakest of 8 riders on 63 is exactly how we need to continue, and obviously having a train adds to more Puma riders being high up the results list.
Continue exactly like this, please.

I struggle to understand why Haussler doesn't sprint, yet the likes of Vaitkus and Richeze do? |

Geraint getting slowly further forward, and at least for a day Grashev is up to 4th place! It's not much but more than i expected

Another podium, fine with me. Another close sprint, which is thrilling to follow. Alak clearly was wrong about Vantomme's failure though 
Another day in yellow is cool. Goss looks good so far and if he keeps his shape, he could well score another podium.. 8th Top-5 sprint for him in a row, btw.

Result not great, but both sprinters placed themselves as I like to see them do. Promising

This win is special. Our first leadout train really in man-game and with it a nice win. Especially as he held Gossy who had a perfect wheel there  Pretty cool.

Fuckfuckfuck nonono get seconds tomorrow pls. No scratch that, how about just win one.
No train also fucks up all leadout GC positions. Don't do this again.

Oz are really flying at the moment, bringing in plenty of ranking points.
The field is a bit too tough for Bennett but that is fine, he's picked up wins elsewhere so anything else is a bonus. Kinda amazed that Manfred was able to stay with the peloton after being dropped by the break on Stage 1, but would be great if he managed to cling on to some GC ranking points.

So close for Cavendish on stage 2, I fancy our chances here and after the first 2 stages I think we have a strong enough train to deliver Cavendish at least a stage win.

Great leadout from Coquard. I can only hope he will do something similar next season.

Geraint with a Top10 finish, i said it was possible! Grashev stays the right side of splits and maintains his Top5 GC placing on a very tricky day. With only 1 stage t run, could Boeing grab a shockingly high GC placing in an HC sprint-fest

What a weird stage.
Vantomme the smartest taking 26 bonus seconds with almost no competition!
Finish the race right now, I like the podium. |

Well this is going rather good Wow, can't say much more, seems that Taihu stage win did him well. GC podium guaranteed without anything freakish happening in last stage. And leading all classifications is nice xD

This has gone very well to say Vanderbiest has struggled 4 in the top 50 2 in the top 20 and Roth in 6th at the moment is pretty great |
