Great sprint by Demare and he gets rewarded with a jersey too.
My leadouts finishing around 100th probably means they're treated as Kelderman domestiques which is a shame if it continues like this wherever Demare and Kelderman/Nerz are present together...
Congrats to Kärcher who are on a roll lately, but we need to figure out what to do with our jerseys as they look way too similar for my liking

Thanks, very similar unfortunately had noticed it and even've been fooled more than once when read reports on my mobile phone.
Unfortunately I think there is not much to do now, next season we will have to talk not only of cyclists but also shirts

Kupfernagel with another victory. That guy is on fire!
I laughed when Liepins tried to follow those sprint trains. At least I could see his NC jersey in action for once.

Meh result for Groenewegen. This was below expected. As the last Sprint goes to a break anyway, sending a sprinter here was a bad choice I guess.
Now for 3 good GC stages. |

High quality lead-out by Karcher and nice finish by Kupfernagel. He surely is the man to beat in sprints lately.

I'm not sure wether to be happy or sad, I was so sure Sobota had that, just for him to come second.  Two seconds in a row now. and now I'm really thinking we could get a stage win, even if I know we won't.
And Sinkewitz losing time is annoying but not too bad, wouldn't of expected him to do too well in GC anyway. Might give him more of a chance at a stage, but I doubt it.

Nice enough keeping to the front on the stage that suits us the least hopefully we can improve with results as the race goes along |

Great, best bunch sprint result of a Vontobel rider this season. 
A little worried about Schär and Imhof, not the stage I expected them to lose time.

Gameplan is lucky AI-fuck up botd win for this race. Little hopes for Tennant anyways but maybe PCM's latest feature (it's not a bug) can help him to stage honours since it has forsaken Tennant the success on the lower levels. 
Great to see Muhlberger in the BOTD. All by himself. Its his second stage race and with two BOTDS, he's already looking for some Voigt reputation. Sammy got to be certainly happy with his fighter heart too.

Hmm. While this was awfully anonymous stage, at least there was no time gap.
Tomorrow Boom needs to follow though...
What happened to Thurau? Possibly losing time for a breakaway tomorrow? Hope so even though he should have lost more then.

Very disappointing to see Kelderman missing that move and especially to have Demare finishing strongest from the bunch.
That should've been a stage win for us, now it's one for Prio, and we also lost white, so rankings- and GC-wise it's the worst possible outcome that doesn't involve gaps.

Meh, no gaps. Strong racing again from Meyer, and a very positive display from Olsson. He's always a great rider once he makes the breaks.

Team, Nepo is our leader, not Prevar..
Not complaining about the result though, Nepo hasn't lost any time and Prevar gets to wear another U25 jersey

Not sure what happened to Stachowiak there, was in the front group then disappeared? Anyway, he got some good KOM points and even if the stage wasn't group, we did try.

Wow! Was not expecting that! Does this mean I can expect Costa to perform the way he should here?
It's Great to see the custom made leader jerseys. Brilliant addition!

Nice to see the wntire team finish the first 35 at least we are all up there and a good 4th for Bellis is fine hopefully a selective stage next but if not Grabovski and Krueziger are still there |

I would've loved to see that favourite group coming into the finish with a gap. This way the only real contender with a time loss was Bibby and he sadly missed out due to a very unfortunate moment.

Good to see a sharp Kangert follow the right move. And nice to have Weening go for breakaway success. Overall a decent stage 2 for us.
No gaps though, so stage 3 is going to be crucial.
Damn, Bibby got extremely unlucky there.

Good performance by Dyachenko. A pity he didn't gain any big gap from being part of the BOTD. Maybe we actually can get a couple of points out of this race. |
