Not quite sure how to translate that, but I think you are saying:
"Most interesting for me in this one is Newton's two so different stars, one strong up the other strong down, can the manager take advantage of that"
If thats what you say then: my bad wont happen again

Looking forward to a Isostar vs the rest battle. Hopefully, for the former's sake, it will be a good race for them. They need it. Kwiatkowski, Tsatevich and Burghardt would be a non-Iso watch-list.

PCM ruining one of the best races on the calendar. 
I knew this was a risk from the start, would've been nice for him to do something given Kwiatek did stay in the main group (then again, so did Morkov ).
Very disappointed that the favourites battle was quite muted on such a beautiful profile though, however our race went I wanted to see some great racing from other favourites but PCM couldn't even provide that. At least the winner being Icelandic is something cool. Gratz Atlantius!
Thanks for the well-written report, jandal!

Gratz to the winner but this is super disappointing. I came to watch a race, what I saw was a joke. Sorry for all managers who had a stake in this race

Shit race. Bah. What's up with cobbles being so non-selective this season?

Yeah. Thanks for the report, but we've seen better editions of this race. Not the way to help me overcome my T-A frustration

And yet another wtf race. Non selective racing ending in a sprint with Vanbilsen doing fuck all. Luckily young Gaviria saves the day with his 5th place, which is our best cobbled result of the season with a top cobbler in the team.
But grats Atlantius and thanks for the report Jandal 
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

We miss Strava's agressive racing, please come back!

Well, we went into the break and scored a point, did not expect much more out of here.
But the race itself was a joke, nevertheless congrats Atlantius and thanks jandal for the report.

I did not expect Kari Brynjolfsson to bring us the first win of the season 
While it was an odd race the profile is so special that it dos encourage bravery and I will take it.
Once again Kulppi sits in the big group, which once again is far too big for my liking.
Good report though!

Can only second cio93.
Really cool to see Valio - DeLaval run away with the win with Icelands Brynjolfsson. Congratulations, Atlantius!
Also great to see Golas prove he's very capable once joining breakaways. That result is obviously better than hoped for, but it's nevertheless great to see him deliver. Must admit I thought he was a steal for whitejersey when I sold him for 60k, and I'm very happy to see him deliver. Congratulations, whitejersey!
Also thank you for the report, jandal7. I really enjoyed it, eventhough AI and the favourites did their best to make it a forgettable race. |

Race started badly with being one of three teams not in the break, then Debesay dropped unreasonably early. Shame the racing didn't make up for things from a more neutral perspective at the end.
18th is at least something, it's just odd with the racing in general, how different it was from the previous ed

I'm torn between being excited for seeing an Icelandic rider in the jersey of Valio winning and feeling bad for such a lame race.
Golas another surprising rider on the podium that I like a lot. Also always cool to see Boonen in action eventhough he couldn't hang on to the others.
Isostar looks very unlucky on first glance with the first two spots behind the break, but 6-7-15-16 is still solid.
Sad to see absolutely nothing from Kwiatek here.

You're the only one wishing another team to relegate sound like a nice thing to do

Congrats on the win, Brynjolfsson was untouchable!
Nice racing from Golas out there today unfortunately it only was enough for third, which is still BLOODY AMAZING YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. Obviously not the man we hoped to score big points in this race but I will take all the points I can get especially in C1 racing!
