If it makes you feel any better, most were at least 67.

Congratulation to Mresuperstar, It was Van Garderen’s to lose and he did not disappoint.
At inferior team Campari – Super dry we just wanted the smallest bag of points, and we got that.
Thanks for the great report Aquarius97
Even got a fine shot of Oscar Gatto for the HQ

The two first group have now merged - except for Betancourt, who has gone back to the bunch

Thanks for the report.
Had hoped to see Vastaranta/Lo Cicero take part in the sprint more, but I suppose they were too tired.

No really contenders here, so that we leave back home with 0 points is no surprise, but disappointed that we do not even try to get in to the breakaway when we know that's our only chance in the race.
Oh well, thanks for the report |

Incredible home race for us. A goal missed but against TVG this is as close as we could get. Ignatiev showing he's a top rider in PCT even for the hilly classics and Palini also overperforming. Palini clearly motivated to prove his old manager wrong.
Also happy for Grieg and Würtz. He clearly learned the good Kazakh ways with us last year.
Modolo could have done better in the sprint but not going to nitpick.

Riding in Ferrero is certainly good for development! 10th in a hilly classic and 16th in a cobbled classic so far this season, who knows what he can do when he enters a TT?

He probably scored like half of his 2016 points in this race alone. Congrats though, was absolutely amazing for you.

Nice to see Klemme get us some points. His low ACC caused me to have rather low expectations, so this outcome is quite good actually
