I enjoyed that report... certainly is proving a rather random race this one. But then again it reminds me of the tour of turkey from a couple of years ago in real life.
Three of the teams who have not really been in the sprints El-Al, Wiggle and Intesa hold the cards after that one. But it is possible there could be time gaps in the next two stages (the next in particular!) so we will have to see.
Strange stuff from Pozzato... I suppose a stage win is worth it. |

My expectations were a couple of top 5s in the sprint from Cucinotta and maybe Grabovski pulling something off in stage 4, but this outcome is even better. |

My predictions for the upcoming stage: Pozzato goes in the break, tolleson and Pasamontes Crash out, pozzato gets enough time to take the lead, crashes 1 k to go and abandons.

So the day that Caruso and Pavarin (I presume) both get a top 6 (and points?), one of them doesn't due to a game crash? Wonderful
Ah well, good reportin' still mb. I'm looking forward to the hillier stages, that's for sure!
I think I wrote down all the points scoring positions, if there are more I can work them out.
Itd be nice if you could post at least the Top 10 of a stage if possible, every stage, regardless of ranking points given for the placings.
Sorry, won't happen again
But similarly, when you have the full stage results exported. Post the full stage results

Pozzato is definately making up for lost time, will be up there hoping to make it three in a row.
This next stage looks like the toughest stage of the race, Tinkoff look like they should be the team who need to force the pace here. |

Good work with the screenshotted results
I like that I've got two in the top 10, and am 2nd in the Teams and both the two best young riders are mine. Wooples.

Wiggle are have crept up to having a great race. Vespa as well after a fairly torrid season are getting in the swing with this one.
The GC battle is not quite over though any of those top 4 could feasably get a time bonus but it will be tougher now.
Beagle: I think Pozzato has decided to win all the rest of the stages! |

I was reading that end bit reporting thinking "I didn't know Michele Scarponi was riding here, huh, I wonder what his sprintings like" before finally realising it was MY Paolo Scarponi, who can't sprint, but did. And he won. What?! Amazing I say. AND Pavarin up to 2nd, awesome. Lovely. Sweet.

Come on Gregory. If you lose the podium, I am going to be highly disappointed. |

The position for Wiggle is getting better as the race goes on, Paverin is giving you great value rjc! Wiggle are hunrily snapping up whatever points come their way, Caruso nabbing some climbing points for second place on that competition as well.
A tense last stage to see if old man Bettini can hold on, sorry to say Deadpool and rjc I am rooting for him here!

My evil rivals, but, if I come 2nd to them, at least I win points by being younger...

I'm pretty disappointed with my race so far. Unless tolleson pulls of a miracle...

Hopefully my sprinters can do something on the last stage, other than that, good race by Guldhammer, I bet he fall now...
