That's the perfect start for us!  Kragh's stability this season for the prologues has been brilliant. Very happy to see him grab another stage win and leader's jersey, at least for a day, if we're lucky with who picks the bonifications, it could be for more.
Thank you for the report, Imladrik! |

Farantakis inside the shot of a leaders jersey if he can live up to some expectations - which obviously is highly questionable.
Giannoutsos with a decent time aswell, although in a race like this it doesn't matter too much, as we can't expect a good GC result.

Great prologue by team, especially Gabbys another podium place. If we have some luck, we can maintain the team score for two more stages. And why not, if Keough can do a sensational sprint.. |

Really good prologue from Soler which is great to see!!
Wellens also not losing any real time so job done for him.
Good start

Seems like the prologue bingo is less of a bingo this year. Or SKA is just too good Congrats on another win, ember! Happy with a 4th place from Larsen. He'll just have to continue to deliver these performances and hopefully it will land him a win.

Agree, tastasol! Probably the maximum +2/-2 daily form thing really proves itself for prologues, as we can't really have shockers with lov 70 prologue stats winning when up against 78+++ riders |

Cattaneo with a decent start compared to his rivals. Kalaba with a shot at the leader's jersey tomorrow.

Oh, so close for Chavanne once again! Rather looks like daily form has been reduced to +/-0 in prologues Or SKA was just lucky enough, both in terms of daily form and wind conditions, so he could indeed play out his slightly superior PRL skill. Congrats to ember once again

Surprising to see our loaned out rider Zingle in the sprint mix, at this level
Promising for next year!
Congrats red with the victory

The promoted teams are dominating the PT so far!  Surprised to see Enger win that one, but at the same time, this sprint field makes it anyone's game. Fingers crossed Prasad can improve on the next stage. If positioned well, he could at least score some minor stage points here.
Thank you for the report, Imladrik! |

 FIRST WIN OF THE SEASON!
Enger was so-so in the stacked startlist in Qatar, but it's very nice to see him deliver here in a less challenging sprinter field. It was interesting to see Groselj doing a lead out for the intermediate sprint, but leaving Enger to surf wheels in the end.
Stage win, GC and points leader thanks to those intermediate bonuses and Pogacar staying as U25 leader. The AI has been questionable at times this season, but at least on this occasion everything somehow went perfect

Great performance that from Ovsya! Got into a good position, in what seemed like a messy sprint, and so close to the win in the end but very happy with 2nd.
Rest of the team kept out of trouble too so a great stage from the team

Where did Meeus come from
Good to see Van Poppel on the podium. Could easily have been a win too in that close finish. A bit worried to see Formolo potentially wasting some energy for him though.

Another nice litte top 5 for Sureda. I guess the hills helped. Definitely doing his job as a 50k sprinter so far this year. Seeing Quintana attack was hilarious though, what made him think he could make a move there with his skillset.

The team working really hard for Van Poppel, but it looks like he doesn't do that well when he was a train made for him.
Another one for Cedevita
Van Poppel's race is done. Time for Formolo to step in now, with two of the remaining stages looking like they could really suit him, especially in this field.
