Yeah... I was having a hard time placing your team to be honest... It can be anything from 14th to 7th basically... It's extremely close this year...
Ok, but I still have 4 million to spend on training, dunno what everyone else has but that may help me 
Only 4 million?  |

Mads has a good DH stat if you look in the DB.
But yeah as the Cult riders of the man game expect them to appear in some various races.

I still have 3 million left. I know it's not much, but considering I only had a budget of ~5,5 mil i think I actually did an ok management of the budget.
Now, using the money for training, I can only hope to do as well as SotD predicted.

One little thing, I counted 5 riders guaranteed for a top 3 in the giro, and 4 riders guaranteed for a top 3 in the tour. |

A ) Your bad at English (math not maths )
B ) I was being sarcastic, sorry if i didn't come off as such, but way too many riders are said to be "guarantees" for podium's at big races, even when some (such as Pozzovizio) are really not

Yeah, I probably mentioned a bit too many secure titles, but it Pozzovivo is the worst example then It really isn't that bad, as he really should be within atleast top 5... And a good possibility of 3rd imo...
I have to consider how the different managers will practise their riders also, and this might have come into these terms :-) |

When you start to make predictions don't forget that this is a different game now. PCM 08 is completely different than PCM 06 so the way things role is different too.

I know... I have tried my best to calculate those things in aswell, but my knowledge is fairly limited, so it will probably nothing like this :-) |
