Another decent try from Manninen though it costs him a lot always getting the last wagon on the last train.

I've never been happier with a second place in my life, I think Manarelli's sprint deserves a banana:

Stage win and race lead in a home tour - doesn't get much better than that 
Sorry I missed the preview, work is a bit mental at the moment, totally lucked out with the sprinters startlist!

The goal was just a top 10 on each flat stage for Houle which he has managed with a 7th and 10th then to make 2 out of the 4 breaks on the other stages and hopefully get a top5 in KOM would be a success
Congrats to the stage winners so far |

Nice when you almost can set the clock after when Aquarius97 will post the report 
Very good start by Wellens and the team aside from Lövkvist, leading the team classification is very nice! Roche should struggled in the mountains so thats fine it was him beating Wellens and getting time on everybody else is much more then expected. 50 sec on Herklotz is wow. |

Well done to sgdanny. Perfect scenario there with Roche.
Olivier did gain on some pure climbers, but actually I was hoping he wouldn`t lose to other stage racers such as Wellens, Kudus. Hence a so-so stage.
Puma with a dilemma. Kelderman could have won but Herklotz is their leader. |

Úran did well to limit the damage, unfortunately Pantano's lack of hilly abilities was demonstrated again today. Anyway looking forward to the next stage where I hope Úran will gain some seconds.
Thanks for the reports Aquarius!

Didn't realise we were here - didn't see our team on the preview. 
Incredibly weak squad for us though, just going for breaks - Nielsen made a good one on Stage 2, but Kaspa failing on Stage 3 was a little disappointing.
I'm wondering why I didn't send Kwiat now though.
Gratz to Roche on the latest Stage win!

Boswell beats both Koretzky and Kelderman. Still only fifth on the stage

Good to see we've been a part of the break again, and a good ride from Suryadi just missing the top-10 is great! Thanks for the report.

It's no fucking dilemma if Evonik can 1-2 a race too.

Herklotz is still close enough to all podium spots and it's far too early to count him out of that fight already
Nice to see some great results by PCT teams on the first three stages. Surely appreciated
A Big Thank You To All MG Reporters! |

3rd is very good from Lecuisinier, Koretzky also doing well, while Vasyliv could have done better.
Still think that Herklotz will win.

Decent ride by Kudus to gain on most, but a pity to lose time to Wellens and particularly Lecuisinier in the hills - the U25 lead would have been nice.

Well this is going well so far.
Veteran Lövkvist being a monster and chasing some tough breaks more then once and still riding in at 19th, Cort Nielsen not long after.
Wellens looking really strong and I think we have a solid team enough to protect the jersey for a while. Having both the yellow jersey and green jersey atm is nice.
Looking forward how this will end, the evolution in previous races has been that both Wellens and Abal how faded the longer the race have went on. |

Festina doing well here as well. Can't really expect results like this in my remaining PTHC RDs. Your riders are making that fight boring, SotD.
Interesting fight for top places so far. Congrats to all successful teams.

Good, but not good enough. Needlessly lost the easy stage win.
Nerz also shouldn't have been dropped.
