A really decent start from my team, would be a great start if Sagan would not be dropped by my team by some seconds. Still not a bad start though. 
Oh and thanks for the report, a really superb job with reporting a difficult discipline that is TTT.

Amazing!! Cannot believe we won this one. Such a thrilling finish with the 4 way tie. Great reporting jandal, it was exciting all the way through.
But I have no doubt that Trofimov will squander any advantage gained here anyway

Amazing report jandal  And the stage decision being so close (four teams tied lol) made it perfect.
Can't say i'm unhappy with Generali not winning today, because i want to keep my 2nd place in the rankings for a little longer

Not last and Waeytens not dropped, I call this a success!
Interesting point raised by Matt, I guess it's just the usual PCM fuckup.
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

Was hoping for a better result than 19th, was it? The team now has some catching up to do.
Congrats on the win Bushwackers and thanks for the great report Jandal

With the expected collapse in the end not the greatest result, but still about where we expected. I'll take it for now, hopefully Klemme has decided to perform this race so we can get a good result. Very promising at least that he didn't get dropped.

Not too bad, especially for Vanendert
This is one of the more unfortunate races we'll have to attend, but hopefully Vanendert can manage a decent GC result, and Barbin can hunt for stage wins
Thanks for the preview and first report jandal

Pretty good start that, with gaining some time on some of our rivals and not losing til much to the best teams. Big nummer for Bobridge, while it was a great start for Trofimov and De Bie. Especially interested in how De Bie will fare in this race.

Pretty good start. In especially that de Bie only lost 2s when being my 6th man. Could have been worse e.g. Ulissi. |

Yeah matt you could well be 2nd then. I'll leave that to the admins I guess, the results after the finish line crossing had you third but in the export it would look like you were second, yeah.

Probably the 2nd race of the year, I really wish I could've brought Kinoshita, but his racedays wouldn't allow it.
Honestly being further down after today due to the TTT, may actually benefit us in the long run, as we may be allowed more leeway in the breakaways.

Well, it seems the do-nothing-Waeytens from last season has been replaced by the attack-when-the-race-is-over-Waeytens. It's definitely a plus, and it only cost me 1.300.000 cash.
But happy with Moscon's effort today, enjoy leadership while you still can, Zico!

A good stage for Skujins. due to big gaps he has already climbed quite high in GC. However id really like to see some stage results as he probably wont get the biggest chunk of gc points. |

Great to see Scheit going for the KOM, might get something out of this race.
Love the reports jandal.

Ulissi is in terrible, terrible form I think. Nice to see Koren and Kung not losing much, but our captain should really do better than this.
Thanks jandal, congrats tasta!

Jan <3 Great performance from both him and the team throughout the stage. To be honest, I thought Sagan had the win there, but it was truly great seeing Jan as nummer one. Now I certainly feel optimistic about the rest of the race, hope to see us keep the leader's jersey for a couple of stages now...
Thanks for a great report, Jandal!

As good a stage as I could've hoped for. Costa squared doing exactly what they're in the team for. KOM jersey is a good outcome after this stage, and the TTT deficit is more or less wiped out now. Dieteren on his own with a decent performance but a little iffy with his decision making, nearly pulling Rui's opponents back at the finish.
Great win for Bakelants. Congrats tastasol! Thanks for the report jandal
