Guess I won't be completing the sponsor goal here... All because of a breakaway. Well, at least Rodrigues and Van Huffel will most likely end up in 4th and 5th... But I expected more.
I knew Qinghai Lake result would come back to kick me in the ass...
Btw, what impact do the sponsor goals have on the future budget?

Dissapointing race for Mestre, I thought he would be up on the podium especially considering how strong he was riding against Van Huffel in Langkawi earlier this season. At least he and Grivko will score some points and I have a stage win and I think that will be enough extend my lead on Champion.

I am curious as to how the hilly rating of the course will affect the results of the TT. Will it be riders like Wegmann or nydam to do well or guys like Duggan or Raisin to do well. What kind of rider will do well?
I think Soctty is assured a top 10 but I'm hoping to get Raisin up there as well.

Riders with good TT stats - a good hill stat may help a little, but TT is the important one.

Rankings
6 teams scored more than 100 points in this race, and although B&O was not one of them (they scored 97), their lead extends to 388 points. Behind them, LA/MSS/Pearl Jam have closed in on Champion, now trailing by just 17 points.
Procycling-BBC remain 4th despite not riding but now have numerous teams not far behind. Bernhard Kohl lifts White Bear Steyr up to 5th. Both Slipstream and Fed-Ex scored over 100 points in this race and lost a place in the rankings due to White Bear Steyr's rise, they are now 6th and 7th respectively. Benfica move from 12th to 10th.

I didn't even imagine a season like this (comparing to the quality of my team) to Benfica. I'm much better than Orlando Rodrigues.
