I was not expecting that. A great sprint from our Cypriot, Theorpanous, pretty sure my team has never won a Avenir stage before.

Thank you for the great reports so far, Imladrik, and congratulations to Zwift on being so dominant so far. I think Los Zara can be happy with how the race is going so far, with Galvan Ramirez in sixth so far. Would be amazing if he could keep that position.

Govekar is fighting well, but in this game version sprinters are better than puncheurs on hilly stages

Plapp is the better rider and both he and Evenpoel have much better teams than Skjelmose. Still, sad to not make the last real selection.

The Conglomerate going against our traditional values and absolutely Skytraining the competition, love it

Massive win for the Conglomerate, what a team performance! Also it obviously helps to have Plapp to finish it off. Though, very good stage by Evenepoel too. That final MTT will be super exciting if Plapp and Evenepoel can keep close in the GC in the next two stages. |

Superb ride by Galvan Ramirez on the previous stage, and also still holding on in this seventh stage, still sixth in GC really is amazing. It's far from over, but a top-10 is getting closer and closer. Perhaps the best ever by a Mexican? For now at least, until a certain bull is coming to the game.
Conglomerate with some great showing here, congratulations to the three musketeers. Also another congratulations to Zwift and Girmay on a classy win. Thank you for the great reports, Imladrik

Awesome result on Stage 7 from Pau Miquel! Our own youngsters have been very quiet so far here but that's a great stage result for Miquel. Would have expected that be Chapu rather than Pau but clearly the Spaniard had the better legs in the end.
Grmay just too strong 
Cool to see our temporary team mate doing well in our jersey

Another fine stage from McTranswerk, we didn't get anything except a few mountain points but we rode with real panache.
Also thanks to Imladrik for expanding my cycling vocabulary, maybe someone could offer a figurative translation of "en chasse patate", the literal translation needs some color commentary.

Damn, great win from Skjelmose! Did not expect to see Plapp collapse like that. Great to see Remco take the yellow, time to see if he can keep it! Thanks for the report!

Remco keeps collecting those second place. After the first mountain stage I figured he is not good enough of a climber to win this, but now it looks he might actually do it. If it had been a flat TT this would have already been in the bag, but anything can happen in the last stage.

What a win from Skjelmose! Love to see the aggression and strength after a somewhat underwhelming stage 6. Surely a mountain top victory we will remember for years to come.
Definitely not optimistic about the TT. WIth both Remco and Plapp being stronger TT guys, and Plapp a better climber too, I think it's still most likely we end up in third. But with this mountain top victory, it will feel a lot more content at the end.
Thanks for the report!

Surprised to see Plapp explode, what a win for Jensen!
Firdaus has been awesome, so awesome to have an Indonesian rider riding for a top-5 in a race like this
Thanks for the wonderful reports.

Very interesting and open race for the podium! To have Galvan Ramirez finish fourth on the stage is amazing. Top 10 seems to be quite sure now, let's see where he ends up. Thanks for the superb report, Imladrik
