Great 2nd from Edmondson! I should of had him as lead sprinter more often! Great start to this race for us!
Thanks for the report!

Kalaba winning two sprints in the same stage, now that is what I call domination

Decent from Thijssen but not quite what we need. He'd be better off with some support but that's okay.
Attention turning to Shikai now, crucial that he doesn't lose time before the Mountain stage.

Bit of a bitter sweet stage for us. Kelderman was great with his 2nd place, but Carlos losing 8 minutes is not a great thing. If we can continue our high stage finishes we should be able to get some great points still!
Thank for the report UU!

First hilly stage dealt with with no gaps isn't bad I guess. One more to go.

Stocek quite impressive this year! Never expected my former stag to be this prolific.

Reis survives the first hills, Kalaba survives the first hills, even Bjerg survives the first hills. This is looking good

Yes, well done by Stocek and the team with the stage win! Was worried to not see us in the break, but that was for the best, with probably a good RDC and the team working as it should.
Also Huby going for KoM points was nice. Probably won't amount to much, as if Stocek feels good tomorrow also, we should favour him again to go for the stage, but we'll see.
Even if that's not that much points for 7 days, the race is already a success.
Thanks for the report!

S2: don't like to see the team work in the front of the peloton when we aren't favorites, but good stage by Sureda. Also nice to see us do a train plus seeing De Comarmond as part of one for Incaline.
S3: anonymous as expected, but happy with Choi not losing time. A bit concerning that Meurisse wasn't closer to the front in the final, but we didn't expect him to compete for the win, just lack of support for Choi in a stage that should suit Meurisse.

#17! Most wins in team history for Matteo Jorgenson! 
Now can he do one better and make up for his second at Tour of America and bring home the GC win here.

Once again a stage where Reis could have lost out on but didn't. Fourth with a mountain stage and time trial to go is very promising

Quietly getting ready to be let down, but for now Inkelaar and Barguil are where we could expect them to be. Hopefully Kennett decides to put on his sprinting shoes correctly tomorrow and then the two climbers won't lose everything on the TT.
Thanks for the reports so far!

Shikai keeping in the front group is what we needed with Hamilton keeping around too. Cosnefroy losing a bit of time but that means at least he won't be getting leadership status for the stages to come.

Choi in the top 10. Right where we want him.
Hate to see him on the startlist

Another 2nd place. Great points but wish we could get that win  Only leading Edmondson by 1 point in green is tough but Edmondson could still win that with some luck. Kelderman losing time is not ideal.
Howson has a chance on the final day as well. Tomorrow will be an interesting stage. Congrats Kennett and Specialized on the win and thanks for the report!

Nice to see us active in breakaways but it's a real B team here from us and it's showing.

Kennett keeps proving that he's one of the best investments I've made at 320k in the transfer fee! Thanks for the report!

Impressive 2nd place from Rodrigues, completely unexpected. Jorgenson now in yellow it's going to be hard to overtake him now. Should he not fumble like in ToA I mean. Congrats Mre.
Congrats as well wj! Kennett is having a great season! Too bad Uwi lost his top10 on another random transition stage.
Let's see how the decisive stages unfold now.

Kalaba on the wrong end here. Can happen in a sprint, I'll cut him some slack since he won the other one.
