Nice to see Moulingui holding onto some much stronger guys for the Top 15 finish and even Ngandamba was strong enough to steal some points in 20th! Sort of races were some points can make all the difference come the end of the season
Well done YJ and thanks nemolito for the report

9th for Kristoff is good given that he's more of a sprinter than a cobbler. Coupled with Drucker's 46th place, the team has racked up 58 points, which is OK, but compared to other teams is a bit of a letdown.
Nice reporting from Nemolito too and congrats to YJ for the win.

Great report Nemolito, an entertaining read.
Shame Zhupa decided to play leadout and limp in to 15th place but its still better than Kraftwerk has managed in the past.
Surprising 21st place for Walsleben gives me hope for our depth scoring possibilities.
Congrats to YJ.

Those are the Stage Race point scales Ivan - as much as I wish we'd scored 71 points here, I'm afraid the reality is about a third of that
Good result nonetheless though, 13th and 14th is better than I would have dared hope for pre-race and bodes well for the rest of the season, especially the hillier cobbled races. We did what I hoped we would, being in the early wave of attackers and hoping luck played to our advantage, while Salzmann sat in and took a good result. Shame about Menten's puncture as I fancy he would have been able to be in that front group as well, but you can't have everything.
Thanks for a great report Nemolito, love the style of reporting and the detail! |

What can be said about Summerhill that hasn't already been said before... he is unreal
Moulingui with a 12th place is ok - missing the top cobbler in these races
