Not a bad start for my team. Barth on 8th is a good result, now I hope that will not be many different winners, so the bonuses do not make many differences

Congrats to cio. Dominant win here. Also too Meiji for the lead. Was surprised not to see a train. As far as I saw, Modolo was still there when trains started.
Unfortunately the Puma riders weren't able to buy real bikes. Even more impressive now. 
And shame with those late crashes. Feel in especially sorry for Oz and Chiquita. |

Puma equipment issue most likely to be fixed next stage. Not having played yet so able to do so. |

YES!!!!! GC lead! Lo Cicero did great. Ciolek looked too good today and had a great leadout. Lo Cicero got probably the best result we could get with him being so well today.

Echelons please. Otherwise, we have nothing to do in the flat stages

2nd isn't too bad, but I hope Reus can beat Ford in the longer TT. Now for Sonnery to try and top 30 the flat stages
58th for Sonnery. Not like he has 78SP or anything
Feel sorry for Oz, it puts Reus in pole position but I'd rather win by being strongest than like this. Plus, Lo Cicero is a threat with his decent prologue, although at 11km it'll be more weighted towards TT I hope.
EDIT: How is the teams classification calculated? Just curious as it hasn't changed despite Ford's crash.

Only the teams best 3 or 5 riders on each stage count. |

Nah, it feels wrong to just post a sad smiley here
Of course it's a pity with Ford crashing out already on second day. Guess he won't be winning the next TT now, at least that's my experiences from last season. Goss in the mix, but he now needs to score at least one podium to avoid a disastrous Oz-race. Not sure about Olman. Or how the AI handles his high GC-placing. He did well last year, so he's my last hope for a good GC-result.

That's exactly how you do it! 
Minard's weak ACC not showing here due to a great train composition using an additional guy in Shishelov as well (though I'd personally use Bar who is better overall), and against only one understaffed train, this was a done deal with 2k to go.
Sorry Alak, the game screwed you there. Though you have to admit Coquard+Van Asbroeck would most probably be inferior as well.
Bummed for Oz as well, that's not how you want to lose the jersey.
Thanks for trying to fix our equipment bug roturn, I couldn't/forgot to check that in the off-season.
Sooo...not a lot speaking against repeating this another 4 times, right?

For a moment it seemed that Kupfernagel had picked the right wheel, unfortunately it did not and he eventually finished poorly.
