Damn, shitty race here for Kwiat compared to what is perhaps needed. Trekky may be right about the ratios but maybe that was a design choice sadly.
Have to say I forgot we were racing this focusing on Netia until CNC attacked Roux raced well, really well in fact, getting involved in the chase and rewarded with a way above par 7th God I love him, going to be hard to let him go if I do. But also that unexpected 7th may be a bitter reminder to of the new unexpected ratios in this new course

11/06/24 - knockout said "Winning is fine I guess. Truth be told this felt completely unimportant."

Not a good race, but 17th is somewhere in the low end of what should be expected of Bystrom with this startlist

Could have been worse I guess, and JJ wouldn't normally finish above the guys ahead, but still, at this point, 11th place just isn't doing it for us. We needed more than that to stay alive, and we're not getting it.
Thanks for the report!

Great result, and one we really needed to boost our promotion push - if McCarthy can do the same in Japan, that would be appreciated
Thanks for the report, enjoyed reading it! |

Congrats to jph, nice win.
OK with 4th for Flugel keeping the Kraftwerk points rolling in.
Great reporting Vien
Edit: We achieved a Top 10 goal here, hooray!

DIS-AS(s)-TER.
Betancourt continues to prove an unreliable leader to place faith in. Totally belies his stats though which should be well suited here. Similar contemporaries regularly top 10 throughout the season in PCT puncheur races, hard to understand how sometimes he is part of that pack, others is as if all his stats acting as -10. Inconsistency so consitstent almost makes me want to start an unkown-til-now PCM AI 'hidden stat' conspiracy theory!
Zero-pointer no help whatsoever in the relegation battle. Panic mode imminent!

Sorry to break it to you, but this is not a new theory.

Okay-ish result from Bilbao. He has shown already that he definitely can do better but 12th is around were he could be expected with this startlist. Thanks for the report! |
