Nice to see Hoelgaard be active!
Congrats to Popak and Credexbank. Popak is really delivering results above his weight, I feel |

Naibo you absolute idiot, losing almost 2 mins on a flat stage zzzzzzzzzzzzzz.
He's been absolutely useless this season, unbelievable. Maybe Schrangl will try one of his patented attacks on the mountains and he'll overacheive again.

Sorry for the rather lengthy report but there was a lot of action and I figured the C2 managers would enjoy a longer report about them after reading all the PT Giro stages. Plus it was a really enjoyable stage all together, I had a great time reporting it.

Wow, excellent job by Cioban and his team! Grabbing nearly every classification possible.

Great stage packed from start to finish with moments and action! Cioban clearly benefiting from local support and deserved the win having clearly been the strongest all day long. Yeah Nikolay probably should have won the finish, but i can't be disappointed after that performance.
Bring on the mountains goddamit! Want to see my colombians fail gain

Great report! What a fun stage
Matteau attempting to save the race for us, grabbing a share of the KoM jersey and getting another solid finish, though a shame he didn't get a podium.
The change in the GC doesn't bother us because I'm pretty sure we can't accomplish that much there (and Naibo gets dropped again, but at least gets back this time).
Hopefully Matteau can attack again and get the KoM for himself, as that should really be the target for us now.

You know he is not from Romania,right? But Moldova is near.
And what a day from Moldova, two riders on the podium with Cioban and our young prospect Tanovitchii, loaned out to PrivatBank, nice that he got them some points from that 3rd. Pluchkin is not the only Moldovan scoring!
Nice detailed report btw.

Nicolae
And who is seen as the favourite for the GC now? Me thinks Rodas or Kononenko... 13th in the GC now, mountain to come and Mr Kononenko showed in the Middle East he can win sprints of smaller groups.

Yeah, I really did!
Sucks that Lay cannot make it back while Hochman or Guillen can

Another bad couple of stages for us, especially Stage 4. Thought Schinker could finally do well as he had perfect positioning, but he faded badly at the end. Camano also lost time which isn't helpful either.
Also a good result for Eskpla there once again with Cioban. Kind of a shame that they have been abandoned. Thanks for the reports Mre, can't wait for the Mountains to come. |

Wow, i don't see this coming. Sprint train and 3rd place with a 4-man squad (where Suray was already dropped) ... just wow |

Poli? He just needs a lead-out.... So Lima is the one to blame really...

Lasca has to be overperformer of the year. What a season he has had. Now its time for Marzano to perform. A not-perfect race from him now would be a disaster. He needs to win. |

Same here. We haven't even gotten into any significant breaks and Abdallah hasn't had any notable results. On the bright side Rodas is the best-placed favourite

Nice to see Lay actually make it to the sprint this time. I expected him to be stronger though.
He's getting regular results atleats as he is still 2nd in the points ranking. Might have had a good shot at winning it had he come back on the 6th stage
