Apparently this is the one race in the season Drapac is amazing! The Minions being amazing both in Austria and the Baltic. Can you report every race from now on Vien

Congrats to Marco, I also missed the sad news, RIP.
I spent a lot of money improving Cavs leadout and he can't follow them!
Thanks for the reporting Vien.

well this was a waste of RDs clearly, but gotta do the regional races (unless its Tour of Pologne cause Poles were being dicks when handing out invites) But maybe some sort of breakaway result is possible now after all these time losses

Drapac from far behind to fourth place in the peloton. Shame there were no bonus seconds, otherwise he'd be a lot more certain of a top 5.

What is up with the terrible positioning in this race?  Vantomme and many others are just uninterested. Kinda sad to see one of my favourite races ruined by PCM AI, this is why we need PCM18.
Thanks for the report though Vien, very nice writing!

Rowe doing amazing with that stage podium and on GC too, wow! Loving it! Break wins are good for us I guess!

After a very bad stage 3, we basically had nothing left here - Then all of a sudden, Julien Simon decided to do a great ride, and take a surprise stagewin! Great result!

Well Min tried, no sprinting capabilities for the boy, too bad I think only top 5 get points for stages (I don't remember now)

Holy cow, Drapac moving up to third! What a pleasant surprise. De Haes in the KoM fight, picking up a few points as well. Very good race on a terrain which doesn't suit us well. Only shame is Zepuntke dropping out of the U25 fight, but otherwise amazing.
Thanks Vien for the reports (again)! Congrats Team Degenkolb!

Memo to self: don't send Vanbilsen here so Van Asbroeck can be the team leader. The difference to last year's race is huge, and I'm afraid the disappointing amount of points we get here puts us back in the danger zone.
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

Impressive performance by Coutinho in a good field. In especially as he had quite some time to gain again after stage 1.
Well done and showing, he is a very consistent sprinter. |

Sooooo close to a GC and Points win for Cav. Hope this isn't the difference between staying up and relegation.
Pleased to see Wilwohl in 2nd U25.
Congrats to Beagle and thanks to Vien for the reports.

And Rowe holds on, finishing in 4th, what a fantastic GC result that is! Our team keeps delivering
