Great points for us but even better for Repsol, congrats! Kneisky showing his potential there.

Rowe in 6th is decent enough I guess, thought he might have suffered more due to the hard nature of the race but he handled the pressure well 
Congrats to Repsol for the win as well!!!

Best planning mistake ever!! 
The race started well with Valverde in what can be the last appearence in a race coverage of his career, and when i saw a couple of Repsol riders between the first 10 riders of the bunch with 40 kms to go, i knew Kneisky would attack.
At first when he could really follow Smukulis i was scared he wasn't strong enough to finish ahead of the bunch, but he attacked in the top of that hill... 
Amazing win that puts us back in sixth place in the rankings 
Thanks all for your congrats and to Atlantius for the report!

It's amazing that despite being clearly the worst sprinting team in CT and also probably in the whole MG, my team is the second with the most points between the 3 CT flat classics (Great Ocean, Barcelona and Paris-Tours)

We came for a top 10 and we got that, and that's about it! I should be happy Krieger got till the end tbh! And what was that about Bogdavonics having the right combination of stats to be our PCM designated leader? Yeah, didn't think so 
Congrats Aquarius! This promotion fight is going down to the wire.
Thanks for the report Atlantius

Nice report thanks. Congrats to the podium dudes in this reduced bunch gallop. Harrison 7th was decent, although reading the report I had starte dto think he may be a top 5 contender with some sprinters being progressively dropped. Quintero backing up in 19th. Steady but not spectacular point scoring.
Would really like to be in a position to train Harrison in the off-season, but assuming we promote, envisage any funds will need to be diverted to transfer funds to try and build to survive in PCT while also beefing up the development program again.
