Croatia, what happened to your "only picked by me" rule? Both Chaves and Majka have been picked before
And Chaves will be picked in the future anyway And damn you for Bardet

Cyclassics Hamburg Result
Podium
1) Elia Viviani
2) Arnaud Demare
3) Dylan Groenewegen
The Answer to the Bonus Question: Will a former winner win again? is No.
Elia Viviani won his first World Tour One Day Classic win in this race, followed by Demare and hot favourite Dylan Groenewegen. Viviani was picked by only one of our predictors while Groenewegen was picked by six! Demare, like Viviani, had only one backer. Defending champion Caleb Ewan was picked by five members but there was no repeat. Three members in total got the bonus question correct.
Purepasd's pick of Viviani and Groenewegen gives him the win in this race. He did not get the bonus correct. Picking up second palce was both Selwink, on his return to competition, and Emre, both having picked Groenewegen and answering the bonus correctly. Aquarius was Demare's only support. No one got a zero score here as the others either got the bonus right or had Groenewegen in their top three.
Here's how the table looks now:
Name | Races Entered | Bonuses | Total Points | Raziz | 29 | 310 | 960 | jandal7 | 29 | 290 | 870 | Selwink | 26 | 315 | 820 | purepasd | 29 | 230 | 810 | AbhishekLFC | 29 | 250 | 805 | Marcovdw | 30 | 215 | 790 | Aquarius | 24 | 180 | 740 | emre99 | 29 | 230 | 700 | Croatia14 | 30 | 190 | 490 | Ian Butler | 6 | 50 | 245 | Luxemburger | 7 | 90 | 165 | Squire | 4 | 60 | 100 | trekbmc | 2 | 0 | 0 |
Jandal misses the chance to close the gap on the absent Raziz, as the former only picks up 5 points. AbhishekLFC, who also scores just 5 points, is the big loser of the weekend as Selwink eases away while Purepasd leapfrogs into fourth place. Marco too closes the gap to 5th place, but also loses his spot to Purepasd. Behind them, it's as you were with Aquarius, Emre and Croatia still desperately trying to close he gap. Raziz's absence means we now have only two members who have participated in every race so far. Can they make it till the end? 10 more results to go before we find that out.
Stayed tuned for the next race later this week...

Only 20 points for that? It should give at least 300
