4th stage
________________________________________________________
Our plan for todays race was to sprint with Bouhanni and Gallopin and keep orange jersey at Fedrigos body. Also,if there is any threat for Coppels KoM jersey to avoid it. Let's start!
Early attack at the start,with Erviti,Kreder,Malori,Smulkis,Reynes.
Suprisingly,there wasnt any attacks or moves at mountain sprint so Reynes got 16 points.
Nothing special to report,E1 is going with 3"41' constantly rising.
At 1st sprint,Erviti was the only guy who sprinted so he got that 5 points!
At 2nd one,Erviti had concurention in Reynes and Kreder. Actually, Kreder got it:
Peloton,with FDJ at lead is slightly decreasing gap,now its only 1"
At 5 kms to go they got them,now everyone is positioning,can Bouhanni get 2nd stage win there?
Mondory attacked and started sprint first,seems like he is going to take it,he has about 25 meters of advantage:
Bouhanni got out of Gallopins wheel and started that bombastic sprint, but will it be enough?
NO! Bouhanni almost got Mondory,who won altough Bouhanni was faster 7 km/h at the end. Not dissapointing result aswell for us!
Tommorow is a big day,race again thruth for Fedrigo,can he keep orange jersey? He has great team behind him,but will it be enough to beat guys such as Quintana... We will see! See ya soon!

5th stage
Our goal for today is to keep orange gersey and everyone promised that they will give 250% of theirselfs. We just have to win this race! So, we're starting!
________________________________________________________
At the start some guys started breakaway,one of them was Dumolin from Agros. But in background, Vanendbergh from OPQS chased strong to catch them.
At the same moment,Garmin and Sky saw some threth in that attack so they set strong pace with Sutton as a leader of that "train".
Group didnt want to let them go so they was keeping advantage on 1 minute. At first intermediate sprint Lutsenko and Dumolin was 2 guys that sprinted. It was tight but Lutsenko won it.
Right after that sprint,SKY set up train and got them fastly. Lieuwe Westra saw that and attacked. He even got 4 minutes gap at some moment!
There is nothing to wait for for FDJ so they got on front.
Westra is strruggling but seems like FDJ is getting him easily. Thats some great teamwork!
4 kilometers after,they finally got him.
Tiralongo is trying with attack,FDJ reacts fastly.
It was easy job for FDJ.
Serpa and Lastras are trying, but again nothing, Coppel and team has legs for this!
They got them and 3 kms to go,even after this hard day, Gallopin decided to attack!
He even made gap of 10 seconds.
Fedrigo is feeling the moment,he saved huuuge energy today,can he get it?
WHAT AN EXPLOSIVE SPRINT FROM FEDRIGO, WHAT A GREAT TDU FOR START OF SEASON!

This was probably best stage in my life, and FDJ is great team for teamwork, they all has good STA so Gallopin even had energy to attack
Thanks!

Best of luck, even though your goals are difficult I think they are possible very well.

For the rest, the French looks good
Doesn't matter, both are perfectly correct.
As a French person, I can tell there are still many blunders in the French parts (I know my English is far from perfect too), especially the bits that don't translate word for word.
edit : for what it's worth, I've highlighted a few grammar or spelling mistakes inside the spoiler hereunder :

Hi guys,i just want to notice that this story will have both,english and french version. Here we go :
A propos de l'équipe // About team
Après une saison 2012 réussie, il y a eu quelques succès spéculations considérables dans les médias locaux au sujet d'une nouvelle équipe FDJ totalement reconstruite. Et c'était comme ça, maintenant nous sommes beaucoup, beaucoup plus fort, avec certains des meilleurs cyclistes français. Nous avons réussi à nous s'unir avec AG2R, Cofidis et Europcar (qui existe toujours, aujourd'hui très affaiblie) et de à faire uneéquipe énorme. C'est tout ce que nous avons à dire, présentation de l'équipe bientôt!
