Oz putting one wheel into the PT now by continuing their great run. Personally i was hoping Rabon wouldn't make the Top10 but Metinvestcould have scored more so i'll take what i can. Allianz weren't great either so a good race from my perspective

I dont like your optimism.
If only! An incredible 22nd added to the list of Dowsett failures

In HC classics, you get points down to 30th place, iirc!

Nice performance by Monfort. He was active all the time and made sure to be in the right break. 6th is ok.
Shame Weening was nowhere to be found though.

Yeah trip to Isle of Man has been great for oz cycling, okay for metinvest but some teams have had a shocker.
Fitting that 'convicts' (I say this tongue in cheek as I have Australian convicts in my ancestry) do well on former concentration camp island

This was perhaps the best race so far for McEvoy, 8th place turns out to be very positive

Ventoso is an idiot. We have Barrio and Cobo to attack for you so you could stay and wait for the sprint... oh, well. That's some PCM-logic for ya.
Congrats tsmoha, I think this past week of victories secured promotion from you. I can't match that.

Another unimpressive day for AMEXpc. Kump look awful. Taborre was about where he should have been but Mehr-Wenige could only muster and 18th place finish. If he does not wake up AMEXpc will slide quickly over the remaining races.
35 points better than nothing but hardly what we hoped for.

Shame Ben Nasser had to lead out the sprint, or he could have won that. I'll take a top five though and we move on with more points added to our total.
Congrats to Oz, promotion looking more and more likely for them. |

Great race for the team here hitting nearly 60 PPRD.
Bellis did a great ride to get into the group and managed to take a great wheel it's just a shame he left his effort to late on the run in but Anderson in 13th does make up for that slightly and 4 riders in the first 2 groups is impressive work. |

Rabon as 9th is very good, although other dangerous teams for us scored also well. But in the end, trip to Isle of Man was not bad one for Metinvest, even when we return without much wanted and needed win. Thanks for the report SN and whoaaa Tsmoha, let someone else taste the flavour of the win too.
