Not sure a lower top 20 is what we are looking for here, though it's nice to see Mikel hanging on. I suppose him being not that bad on a TT hurt our breakaway will, though seeing us in was still interesting.
Thanks for the reports!

Another podium in a stellar season for Reis. Olivier is not much behind and will probably kill us all in the final stage, but interesting to see if Reis could do a Benetton and get a win here possibly? Congrats to Lierse and thanks for the report!

This season has shown that Olivier isn't too comfortable on stages like this one. He's not too far behind, so all to play for still. Not sure he makes up much in the MTT though. The flat sections at the start definitely suit the top 2 more. After that, they should all be equally matched!
Congrats to Ollfardh and thanks for the report!

Still moving up in GC which is great. The TT could change that and Bennett could drop but it is good to see him climbing the GC. A high stage result would be nice but a high GC finish is definitely more important for us.
Congrats to the winner and excellent reports!

Winning the stage should also win the GC for Oomen, so the mission is clear.

Was afraid of that! Best case scenario is a podium finish now, which is what we are hoping for on the last stage.
Congrats to Adler and thanks for the report!

Matteo hanging with the big boys. One more good ride through the mountains and we can check off our Top 5 team goal for this race. Also props to the rest of our climbers for doing pretty well in GC right now as well! Can't wait to see the point haul we get from here.

The new medication, I mean nutrition is kicking in! Still fear Oomen will overtake us in the next stage but wow what a ride so far from Reis. Definitely happy with this! Thanks for the report and good luck to everyone on the kast stage.

Something we are really missing is that TT ability from Bennett. Rodriguez was right on him in this stage and his mountain stat is a lot lower. Something to look forward to with Rodriguez next year I suppose though.
Bennett is still in the top 10 overall and could move up in the final stage but it will be a struggle to do so considering there is 1 and a half minutes between him and 8th place. Not ideal.
COngrats to the winner of the stage and a great report. Exciting for the next stage and hopefully some more points come our way.

Same story as Benelux Challenge for us, couldn't expect more than depth GC points from Quintana and Bergstrom Frisk
Congrats KaiserAdler and thanks KB for the reports and all your efforts all season long!

The last stage was an anti-climax. Shame we missed the podium but still a good race for us with a good points return. Wraps a good month.
Congrats to Adler and thanks for the reports kb

Good to see us well represented in the breakaway of the last stage and well fought by Manfredi though a top 3 would have been nice.
Thanks for the reports, and congrats to all the winners and the CT teams in the points. I think we have at least three content CT managers after today.

What a stage from the boys, seems like we're incapable of winning in normal fashion 
Had feared for the worst after the disastrous performance from Penasa on stage three, but can leave Andorra very content now. Excited to see what the next rankings update holds and whether we're on track to maintain our top 10 spot.
