Another good stage result from Rowe that moves him into the yellow, which might not be an advantage as LLS points out, and we keep our first in the teams GC as well. Thanks for the report hopefully we can keep our scoring up for the rest of the race!

A very good sprint from Kalaba but with better positioning it would have been an easy dub

it is actually unbelievable at this point, what is wrong with my team? Hopefully it changes in the next stages but this has Guadalupe written all over it again. Never seen anything like this in my 9 years, what the fuck is going on?
Thank you for the reports.

Well that was a turn up for the books, Haller with some fine wheelsucking getting a win and bagging enough bonus seconds to guarantee a top 10 GC finish!
Thanks for the report red.

Sadly the breakaway being caught so late brought chaos in the train. But theres some positives. Lets hope Olei can bring Saber to a win next time and bring home the bacon. Thanks for the report red

Eislers had a really good sprint, but started from too far out. Looks promising for the next stages!

Pruus and Breen holding on to 25th and 26th after a good prologue, but will continue falling down on the ranking if we don't attend the sprints.
Come on Bertilsson/Waersted or at least show some breakaway action? |

Kalaba boxed in on this one. Two more chances!

Solid fifth place here for Silvestre from an unusual situation with Lauk as the leadout. GC isn't looking great, but 7th place is only 7 seconds away, that has to be the goal now. Get a podium on one of the two remaining stages and it's possible. Thanks for the nice reports!

Olei and Saber proving to be a good duo with this podium. The final is still a bit messy, lets hope its cleaner next time around for a decent train by us. Third is a decent result for Saber but we want it all! 14 seconds is alot but should be doable if he uses every last bit of energy. Congrats to the winner and thanks to red for the report

Jakobsen doing Jakobsen things 
Great win from him and good that we supported with chasing and that we had somewhat of a lead-out too so it wasn't completely out of the blue.
Thank you for the report! Hopefully Jakobsen can continue this form into the final 2 stages.

Well that was a bloody disaster from Rowe, always love that PCM doesn't want the GC leader to participate in the sprint, potentially throwing away multiple jerseys in the process.
Thanks for the report.

Well, I hope for a results as high as possible in the GC. The first stage went well, I didn't expect much there with the cobbles in there, but Ahlstrand limited his losses, however, the second stage was a disappointment. It's good that on the third Ahlstrand was more involved in the sprinting and hopefully he can win a stage from the next 2. It's definitely a realistic expectation, but it remains to be seen how things turn out.
Thank you for the reports and congratulations to the stage winners!

Such a shame Saber was stuck against the railing. A really good train and delivery from Olei shouldve wrapped it up. But alas, GC win is pretty much gone so lets aim for that top 3-5 atleast to save face.

This race is run with the extra mountain stage so I don't think this is the problem. Jakobsen just took part in a sprint with a lead out wearing the Yellow jersey. That wouldn't have happened otherwise.

Odd choice to try the break with Sweeck and De Witte, costing the latter a minor GC placement.

Wow, Haller must have confused the Baltic States for the United States and brought his Tour of America legs.
Marco is exceeding expectations, looking good for a top 5 at least and could even win!
Thanks for the report red and congrats to Laurens147.

This season is torture. I genuinely can’t believe this is another race my riders don’t even bother to compete despite having a GC favourite. Again another potential 100+ point race (like the previous 6) down the drain just because.

It doesn't help that we did a decent prologue, when we're not competing in any sprints and just fall further down the rankings by every day passing. Hopefully we can be up front tomorrow and make multiple splits with massive gaps on this sliiiiiightly hilly stage  |
