Katusha too dominant for Sagan, but it was a great result, nevertheless. |

Thank you all for the nice comments I'm also very pleased with the results in that strong field.
Sagan was good positioned in the sprint, but he was just empty. If he wouldn't have followed that last attack, I'm pretty sure he won. But on the other hand, Kolobnev did that attack as well, so maybe he was just better.
Here's the last race of the season, tomorrow begin the season reviews.
I finished all the transfer edits for the next season and figuered that it would be way to much work to edit all the riders stats and limits, so I just did it for Liquigas and the other stats will be the results of one simulated season with random potential - so just as the season I played here.

 1.1: Japan Cup
In Japan, the cycling season eventually comes to an end. Liquigas wants to end it on a high note, which shouldn't be too hard considering the only 100 riders containing field. Markus Eibegger was the biggest rival today. Also, Edward King gives his farewell for Liquigas.
In his last race, King got all the freedom he wanted and managed to get into the break of the day. They got a maximum advance of 5 minutes and although it seemed that they would be reeled in, they eventually fought for the win among themselves – and Peter Sagan, who managed to jump to the front within the last kilometers.
Having the top favorite in the pack, King saved his energy in the front group and had a lot of it left on the last kilometers. Peter Sagan therefore decided to lead him out for the sprint, but the uphill finish showed up for the demanding for the American. Being the monster that he is, Peter Sagan took the whole sprint from the front and won it easily. King ended up third, which is a great result for him. We wish him only the best for his future at Trek – Livestrong.
Result
| 1 |  Peter Sagan | Liquigas – Cannondale | 4h14'17 | | 2 |  Mariusz Witecki | CCC Polsat Polkowice | + 11 | | 3 |  Edward King | Liquigas - Cannondale | s.t. |
He's just the man! What an autumn for Peter Sagan, who today scored his eigth win in five weeks!

Had the same problem but with Lachi`s Excel files it was pretty fast actually for the ~top 300 riders.
Just open one excel file with the PCM09 savegame and one excel file with the new PCM11 savegame. Then change the coloumn sizes a bit that you just have to copy ~10cm for all stats and limits and copy&paste from one to the other. |

yeah, that might be a possibility, but I think I will leave it that way. It would also unbalance the whole thing a bit if I only edit some riders. Plus, I'm not really keen on spending more time with editing. I want to start the next season

After thinking a bit, I might yet again edit the savegame a bit more in the next days. I will see how fast that goes with the excel editor.
But first of all, here's the first of three parts of the season review:

 Summary of 2011 – Part 1: Results and Rankings
Results
Grand Tours
Tour de France
| 1 |  Alberto Contador | Saxo Bank - Sungard | | 2 | Samuel Sanchez | Euskaltel - Euskadi | | 3 |  Ivan Basso | Liquigas – Cannondale | | . | | S |  Edvald Boasson Hagen | Sky ProCycling | | M | Alberto Contador | Saxo Bank - Sungard |
Giro d'Italia
| 1 | Vincenzo Nibali | Liquigas – Cannondale | | 2 | Damiano Cunego | Lampre – ISD | | 3 | Marzio Bruseghin | Movistar Team | | . | | S | Vincenzo Nibali | Liquigas – Cannondale | | M | Stefano Garzelli | Acqua & Sapone |
Vuelta a Espana
| 1 | Samuel Sanchez | Euskaltel - Euskadi | | 2 | Ivan Basso | Liquigas - Cannondale | | 3 | Carlos Sastre | Geox - TMC | | . | | S | Ivan Basso | Liquigas – Cannondale | | M | Ivan Basso | Liquigas – Cannondale |
Most notable here is Liquigas, who were the only team with one man on every podium. The outcome of the Tour was the clearest one, while Sammy Sanchez won the Vuelta by only 10 seconds.
Monuments and World Championships
Milano – San Remo
| 1 | Thor Hushovd | Team Garmin - Cervelo | | 2 |  Heinrich Haussler | Team Garmin - Cervelo | | 3 |  Fabian Cancellara | Leopard – Trek |
Ronde Van Vlaanderen
| 1 |  Stijn Devolder | Vacansoleil - DCM | | 2 | Heinrich Haussler | Team Garmin - Cervelo | | 3 | Filippo Pozzato | Katusha Team |
Paris – Roubaix
| 1 | Tom Boonen | Quick·Step | | 2 | Heinrich Haussler | Team Garmin - Cervelo | | 3 | Thor Hushovd | Team Garmin – Cervelo |
Liège – Bastogne – Liège
| 1 | Philippe Gilbert | Omega Pharma - Lotto | | 2 | Joaquim Rodriguez | Katusha Team | | 3 | Simon Gerrans | Sky ProCycling |
Giro di Lombardia
| 1 |  Alexandr Kolobnev | Katusha Team | | 2 | Joaquim Rodriguez | Katusha Team | | 3 | Peter Sagan | Liquigas – Cannondale |
Really remarkable is poor Heinrich Haussler, who came in second in three of the five monument races! Also, no team won more than one of the five races, while the Belgians could score three wins for their country.
World Championships ITT
| 1 | Fabian Cancellara | Switzerland / Leopard Trek | | 2 |  Jens Voigt | Germany / Leopard Trek | | 3 |  Janez Brajkovic | Slovenia / Team RadioShack |
World Championships
| 1 | Allan Davis | Australia / Astana | | 2 | Tom Boonen | Belgium / Quick·Step | | 3 | Damiano Cunego | Italy / Lampre – ISD |
The biggest surprise was certainly Jens Voigt, who was the only one to challenge Fabian Cancellara.
Other ProTour Races

Spanish and Italian dominance on the first six places here. Liquigas is the only team with more than one rider in the Top 10 of this ranking, and therefore...
Teams
| 1 | Liquigas – Cannondale | | 1574 | | 2 | Katusha Team | | 1275 | | 3 |  Leopard – Trek | | 1177 | | 4 | Team Garmin – Cervelo | | 1065 | | 5 | Euskaltel – Eukadi | | 968 | | … | | 15 | BMC Racing Team | | 450 | | 16 | HTC – Highroad | | 417 | | 17 | Vacansoleil – DMC | | 335 | | 18 | AG2R – La Mondiale | | 227 |
... they also lead the team ranking comfortably. Katusha and Euskaltel were also surprisingly strong. The biggest disappointment was certainly HTC, who had to fear the relegation, which eventually befell Vacansoleil and AG2R.
Continental Tour
Individuals
| 1 | Tom Veelers | Skil – Shimano | 1170 | | 2 | Kenny Van Hummel | Skil – Shimano | 1036 | | 3 | Bert de Waele | Landbouwkrediet | 749 |
Teams
| 1 | Skil – Shimano | | 3651 | | 2 | Landbouwkrediet | | 3005 | | 3 | Farnese Vini – Neri Sottoli | | 2624 |
The Continental Ranking lost much of it's importance as it's no longer significant for promotion. Much for the regret of Landbouwkredit...
CQ Ranking
Individuals
| 1 | Alberto Contador | Saxo Bank – Sungard | 4207 | | 2 | Vincenzo Nibali | Liquigas – Cannondale | 3454 | | 3 | Samuel Sanchez | Euskaltel – Euskadi | 2711 | | 4 | Ivan Basso | Liquigas – Cannondale | 2494 | | 5 | Damiano Cunego | Lampre – ISD | 2154 | | 6 | Tom Boonen | Quick·Step | 2147 | | 7 | Peter Sagan | Liquigas – Cannondale | 1819 | | 8 | Fabian Cancellara | Leopard – Trek | 1807 | | 9 | Luis Leon Sanchez | Rabobank | 1550 | | 10 | Heinrich Haussler | Team Garmin – Cervelo | 1524 | | … | | 457 | Dominik Nerz | Liquigas – Cannondale | 95 |
Teams
| 1 | Liquigas – Cannondale | | 11238 | | 2 | Team Garmin – Cervelo | | 7585 | | 3 | Leopard – Trek | | 7422 | | 4 | Katusha Team | | 7385 | | 5 | Rabobank | | 6203 | | … | | 10 | FDJ | | 5277 | | 11 | Skil – Shimano | | 5208 | | 14 | Farnese Vini – Neri Sottoli | | 4726 | | 16 | Cofidis, le crédit en ligne | | 4559 |
Liquigas dominance is even stronger in the CQ ranking. Here, they have three riders in the Top 7 after Sagan's immense performances in the late classics. In the important fight for promotion to World Tour, FDJ and Skil eventually were victorious.
Victories
Individuals
| 1 | Vincenzo Nibali | Liquigas – Cannondale | 22 | | 2 | Mark Cavendish | HTC – Highroad | 16 | | 3 | Kenny Van Hummel | Skil – Shimano | 16 |
Teams
| 1 | Liquigas – Cannondale | | 59 | | 2 | Skil – Shimano | | 43 | | 3 | Landbouwkrediet | | 42 |
Other ranking, same image: Liquigas is on top. Nibali scored his 22 wins in only four months and no one came close to him in the rest of the season.

Really good review.
Hope you don't mind, but Tour de Pologne to the Canadian classics, the flags are wrong.  And in the Vuelta review, Basso has a spanish flag. |

Great overview, and of course a great season for Dominik's team! Especially in GT's and Sagan's streak in the end.. now it's time for Dominik and a next step.. he showed some potential already, in Slovenia for example.

@ Spilak23: Thanks. I can't promise anything, but I'm already quite far in my preparations, so you can expect the new thread sometime next week.
@ tsmoha: Thanks for your support. It was really a very nice and successful season for us. And Nerz improved a lot so I guess we can all expect a bit more (regarding notable results) next year
