Sarawut already won a race he should never have won...
His last name is really annoying, glad tsmoha made it Sirio.......
Great result for Euskaltel, but the AI fucked up.

At least we're on the winning side of the losing end.
Rafael Addy made his first ranking points... in a stage not supposed to happen.
A bit sad that the race seems to be fixed right after stage one (unless strange things are happening again). Would 've loved to see some sprinter tryouts for the win.

All went perfectly to plan
Ruen Fernandez the mighty breakaway rider joins the breakaway and uses his climbing ability and truly outstanding Basque TT ability. Great amazing stage win for the young lad and at this stage hopefully he can hold onto the GC but we shall soon see.

This race......
Great that we got a sprint on stage 2 there. Super to see our first ever lead-out, Aguilar has woken up from his dormant state at last, Manarelli left it a bit too late to launch but still gets some vital bonus seconds, if he has a good long run at a sprint here he might take home a stage at least.
Top 5 in GC, 3 podium finishes and 1 win have to be our minimum goals from here on in. C'mon Bonsucro!
Congrats to Alpina - Avianca on the stage anyhow, well deserved. |

hmm, I think that leadout of ours might have actually been stronger then the sprint from Awang, seems like he went nowhere when they left him in a decent position, I wish he was on his Langkawi form again.

At long last, our first ever victory in the Man-Game arrives! Everything seemed to be perfectly executed, for once Forero was in a good position coming into the sprint and Angarita delivered a superb leadout and Forero finished it off (although it was mighty close).

Not much to prclaim about our performance, usually Fonseca gets better the longer a tour is.
Gratz to Alpina - Avianca!

Wow, first time we build something looking faintly like a sprint train... though it didn't made a difference. 3rd stage, 3rd time Fonseca came home 11th.

Another podium
Vingerling giving us some nice results, but still picking up a win would be great

Great work from the team, not letting the breakaway came close to victory. Need to continue that, and who cares about the sprints No rider in top 30 on last two stages.

Great stage for my team. Sarawut getting the KoM lead and moving up to 7th in GC.
Also what a performance by Uugunbayar. This is like the first stage he doesn't fail completely against the big guns. 6th is a great. |

Crossing my fingers for a stage 4 victory.
In races such as this I would like to see time bonuses down to at least 5th place at the finish. |
