I should never have invested a penny in cobbled leaders

Well this result seems eerily similar to previous, though instead of being the guy who got wheelsucked and took 2nd, I trade places with my rival and take third. Dreaming of winning all of these races makes it a tough result to deal with, but realistically Summerhill continues to perform great and is getting solid results.

Not that I expected this to go well, but a 0-pointer isn't great. Marcato could have done well if he was in that front group. March is turning out to be pretty terrible for us after our good start.
Anyway, nice to get in the break and congrats to Lululemon. Grashev really is a nice rider and gets another great result here. Thanks for the report tsmoha. |

Not a fan of seeing another midstage attacker wheelsucking to the victory. Even though it's better ranking wise that the ugly shirt ( ) won I would have liked more if Vanspeybrouck had succeeded. It was about time and he was clearly the strongest today.
Boonen once again okay but s few placed higher would have been better. Still another consistent point scoring which keeps us still near the top.
A Big Thank You To All MG Reporters!

Ballan, a similar rider to Grashev .... it could have been him. Instead he finishes somewhere down around 80th: anonymous personified. TMM wins the lottery today, the first great result for him this season. |

Congrats to TMM, victories in HC races bring big points, so that should haul Lululemon out of the relegation spots for now.
Not such a good day for Nutresa; probably our worst cobbled performance in 2015, although Mebrahtu did respond to my encouragement to score his first points of the season, even if only 30th. Think Stijn needed longer distance to compensate for his mediocre sprinting to replicate most recent results.
Thanks for reports TSM, another 3 with Nutresa participation alone today! (Minor complaint that only bought a sum total of 10 points across all 3 (4 RD's total), hopefully last day in Corsica will bear some fruit!)

Really unfortunate that the breakaway riders are outsprinting the favourites.
So Grashev and this Taramarcaz guy with a better result than I had thought in that sprint.
Good result for Vanmarcke and luckily also Nooytens didn`t give up to finish 13th.
Thanks for the report. |

Hooray for the Taramarcaz guy and a pat on the back of Sep Vanmarcke!
Smart racing by our first year pro, even though it wasn't the most decent way to secure the result. Much needed points... the less expected, the sweeter.
Gratz to the team with the bold-looking shirt-bike-combo and thanks for another great report, tsmoha!

Haha I really don't know what to think. On the one hand everything went to plan and Vanspeybrouck was the strongest on the day. I knew that nationality bonus had to kick in at some point. On the other hand I once again somehow fail to win a Belgian classic. I can't think of a single one that I've taken since the team started.
Congratulations TMM.

Very anonymous performance resulting in 12th. Not terrible, but still disappointing. I fear we're not going to get much out of our cobble season this year.
Congrats TMM!

Another race in which we weren't seen all day long. A break apparence would've been nice. I couldn't expect much from Nepomnyachsniy but I had hoped to be able to count on his SP stat, which was a mistake in the end. 19th sucks but at least we can take some points from this race. |
