Thinking this will be a great race for Taarame, highly challenged by Sicard and Schleck. Will be really interesting to see how much/or anything Keizer will lose on the hilly stages. Hoping for a strong comeback from Kritskiy aswell as his Vuelta were really dissapointing.

Bennati is horrible Atleast Appo did well to get 5th, thats pretty good for his stats.

Holloway 50th.
Really disappointing. We had a really nice Suisse. But now we look likely to get Vuelta like disaster.
Just gutted.

Safe stuff from Guldhammer and nice to see Holst Enger try, but he was clearly not strong enough, which is a fair case with his stats. Anyway good to see him try to mix it in the final kilometers.
Must say I thought Mohs was going to take it after the great leadout, but Kennaugh proving he's a top class sprinter. Congratulations, CrueTrue! |

Nice 6th place from Petit - better than I'd expected. Strange to see Holloway not sprinting though, as a rider who tends to outperform his stats it's rather disappointing. |

Kupfernagel is a beast somehow. And me stupid still tends to ignore his strength

Kennaugh having one of his super-strong races, like Colombia last year. Very handy for Orange - though Sicard is an odd leadout choice!
Nice to see Schleck messing around with the sprinters since it bodes well for being active the rest of the race. Shame he couldnt get the other side of that 32 second split though!

Another encouraging try from Holst Enger, and 8th is great. He has been above expectations here, that's for sure.
Lucky for Guldhammer to not loose time to other GC contenders there as he was badly placed judging from the results. Hopefully that serves as a wake up call.
Congratulations again to CrueTrue! |

BecherOFFka!
Unless something extraordinary happens, this race will be absolutely painful for us... At least a nice try by Hnik in the first stage, more of breakaway attempts please!
And well, congrats to CrueTrue, a nice couple of wins for your team!

Always good to have the KoM (for the time being), but I hope Ovechkin still saved some energy for the TTT. Also I think/hope Schleck, Taaramäe and Kritskiy all look/are in good shape.
Really looking forward to the 45km Team Time Trial;

Really annoying to see close to equivalent sprinters, sprinting to podiums and worse sprinters also doing well.
Not sure Holloway is the only one. Could it be a weak pilot fish or that he is seen as team leader? Really frustrated second race where likely I lose a whack of points because of a silly bug as far as I am concerned.
Congrats to CT though.

Another 4th by Groenewegen! Nice stage.
A bit unlucky to lose the KoM lead. Hopefully Villella trying to get it back soon. |

So far nothing happened for us. But to be honest I didn't expect it either, so I guess we are on par. Losing 1 and 2 points to Vesuvio and Becherovka doesn't mean anything.
The TTT will be very interesting. I don't have a strong team, but I hope it will be strong enough for Lecuisinier to be in a decent position prior to the first real test on stage 4.
Stage 4 is probably our only chance to get a stagewin, and we have to be lucky to get into the breakaway to do so - And preferably by Laurent Pichon, who didn't do anything this season at all.

I can see Olman being injured and my team again failing in a TTT...
A pity for Smowzy with Holloway. I feel for you, mate. In a ManGame-healthy-way

Of course I won't go easy on them. Schleck is now too far in front of Gesink. Kritskiy and Uran are also doing better, while Taaramae is just a few seconds behind.
At least, it was Oz who got the stage win.
