Very disappointed with Guillen's lack of ability to follow in the final kms here, expected a bit more from him.

Actually it's quite impressive he got a 3rd place out of this, the final was clearly not the most suited to him and he still finished just behind Hassan in the peloton's sprint and in front of punchy sprinters such as Mezgec, King, Cimolai or Selig.
Congrats ryan btw, your race can still improve tomorrow!

Minor stage placings and 9th on GC. It's not great. But have to look positive in that it is still some points on the board. But my we need to get some form back soon, these stage races are killing us

Brilliant performance from Dowling on the last stage. Nice 2nd place on the stage and GC. Good to see Deignan showing off his Irish NC in the break, but I would have prefered Konwa up there to seal up the KoM competition. Ho-hum, second in that for him and 3rd in the Team Classification. A great race for us, with a breakaway appearance and a top 10 finish or two on every stage except Stg, 1. Bravo to team Schuh p/b Wiggle and Congrats Jaxika. |

How Kim Magnusson won a stage, came 8th on GC and secured two jerseys is beyond me.
But he did it! Woo-hoo!

Congrats to MOL - OMW on the victory, and a massive surprise to see Dowling take 2nd (what's his mtn stat, low 70's?) - nice one for Schuh. WCC (expectedly) lost the lead, and further even the top 5 GC original target. However Galindo Rodriguez in 6th, a stage and days in the leaders jersey is still a good return for this outing.
Good reports throughout Selwink, appreciated .

Kung got outdone by Mat Senan on GC again, Kung should be the better climber but I'm starting to wonder if he is actually working for the Malaysian instead with them finishing on the same time instead of Kung gapping him.

Missed the last stage.
Shame for Anton to once again finish below expectations on the last stage, amazing performance by Dowling though and of course congrats jaxika on the win.
Really nice to see Kasperkiewicz tie for the King of the Mountains, too bad he didn't go out earlier to get the lead outright. Still love to see him active and can't wait to have him race with us.
Thanks for the excellent reports throughout Selwink!

Not a bad race at all for us. Tvetcov is a nice steady points scorer, but only got 3rd place in GC and the last stage to speak of, but Lampier made me happy with a win. This sealed off a nice month for us and I hope we can be around that top 10 by the season end. Although Tvetcov is probably low on race days now
