Finishing second to Strava is becoming a bit of a trend nowadays  Nevertheless congrats Shonak!
LLS picking up 2nd place is really really nice, a relatively passive race was unexpected, but meant Palini could sprint to 12th as well, not sure if he was helping LLS or just going off on his own but don't really mind as at least he's going for the race and not getting in the way, same for Rabottini in 20th, and of course a nice day out in the break for 2nd in the KOM for Panayotov, love the way everybody races for themselves here, team spirit tends to lower your points gain.
Thanks for a fantastic report Croatia!

Yay, great way to start the race by already exceeding expectations. Vanendert had a great season so far so I'm glad he got a win here today, to rewarde him for all the close misses he had to suffer thro. No chance for the GC but a nice day in the leader's jersey is pretty great for now. Maybe Top 5 can be achieved from here on out.
Thanks Croatia for another great report, you're all over the place right now, keep it up

Cunego AND Prevar up there in the top 10, good stuff!

Congrats Shonak, that deserved good luck doesn't seem to end for you!
It's kinda odd to see 2 Azteca riders in the top 5 and another in 9th when none of them is called Danny Summerhill frankly

Wow, this race is already better than expected for my team! Ondrej Cink being active from the start in his home race being the first attacker of the race, then riding majority of the stage in the breakaway and in the process takes the provisional lead in KoM competition and at the same time jumps right into 3rd place in GC thankfully to a finish in the main group. Well done Ondrej!
Thanks Croatia for the report, it was a joy to read!

Somewhat worrying to see Di Maggio that far behind. Just hope it was because of the missing selectiveness of the stage.

What a huge opening day for us, finding lots of points without the use of Summerhill. Now to just continue to back that result up the rest of the way and we will be very very very happy.

Terrible result from Kadri, who really should have done better with his SPR stats here (and also HI, seeing who beat him here). Joining a break or two would be nice as well, but my team seems to be a bit allergic to that unfortunately.

Silly me, thinking Boswell might actually do something here. Hopefully that Tirreno win won't be a one time wonder.

How on earth is Rudaskov performing better than he ever did for me in CT, while not even riding his favourite terrain? Kadri a bit further down than hoped, but some riders are now definitely overperforming, which I don't mind of course.

Wow, after a completely anonymous first stage and not a mention in stage 2, I kinda gave up on this race. Then suddenly Waeytens appears as 5th out of nowhere. This could be a good race for us after all!
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

Horrible off-day for Vanendert. I can't complain after the great win he delivered yesterday but consistency is usually his greatest strength and today he let us down there. Hope he recovers and we can still make Top 10. Strava needs to head into botds from here on out, we definitely have the riders for it here, so do stuff guys.
Thx croatia for another fine report!

Shame about Prevar losing that much time, and shame about Cunego not sticking with Slagter, however with both Italian speaking riders from my team up there, I have no reasons to complain at all

Surely Meyer must have crashed here? If not, that's just a shocking result. All about stage hunting now.

First stage; horrible start for the team, where Bilbao should contest for victory. Very surprising that the winner rode in stravas colour btw
second stage; after dissapointment after dissapment after dissapointment this season, slagter suddenly with a +5 day and uses it perfectly 
from 1.00 to 4.100 and his first massive result, that victory really ranks high in the teams history!
curious to see how the rest will pan out now really

Panayotov simply does not do that.
I have no words on how he managed that, definetly a ton of mo influence but still!
Very nice job by Sanchez to stick with Cunego given the mo influence too, will be hard to overcome him and especially Slagter with that time gap though, congrats on that Dev!
A shame for all the managers of pure puncheurs to lose a lot of time, hopefully you get some redemption in the next few stages.
And thanks another fantastic report Croatia!

Not funny!
Annoying! Same thing like last year. (link to last years discussion of the race)
I don't get why the stage datas aren't released during pre-season. Managers can make propper planning and you can avoid needed re-runs for the reporters. But when stage datas just got changed and the stages kept there is nothing to rely on as a manager. Not even the experience you have with the same profiles.
Not saying I want it replayed. Just wanna share my frustration about a wasted goal, Di Maggio race days and ranking points a way like this.
