Thanks Posti! Back to the win, with that correct bonus.
Wonder why did you pick massively New Zealand, with only one rider (Canty) in the startlist?
And also, if i'm not mistaken, i think i would have guessed the original bonus question

Croatia had messaged me his team for the Bretagne Classic before the race started because he could not log in yesterday. I myself did not log in for most of the day. Posting that team now. This will be taken into consideration.
For Croatia14
EBH
Bettiol
Arndt
Forgot to send me the answer to the bonus

Bretagne Classic Ouest–France Result
Podium
1) Elia Viviani
2) Alexander Kristoff
3) Sonny Colbrelli
The Correct Answers for the Bonus Question: Name any one of three lowest ranked countries to have a rider finish in the top 20. are Austria (Rank 22), Portugal (Rank 19) and USA (Rank 16).
Elia Viviani continued his hot streak with his second World Tour classic win immediately after the first in Hamburg. Kristoof, too, continued his resurgence with a second place finish. While Kristoff was picked by two members, no one took a chance with Viviani. Colbrelli, a surprise third place finisher, had only one backer. For the bonus, only Austria was picked by one member while the other two countries did not get picked.
Aquarius getting the difficult bonus question correct (just imagine if I had assigned 300 points like he had wanted ) gives him the win here. Marco and Raziz's Kristoff pick give them second place. Abhishek is the only other member to score in this race, having picked Colbrelli. A couple of the regulars were absent.
The table now looks like this:
| Name | Races Entered | Bonuses | Total Points | | Raziz | 30 | 310 | 970 | | jandal7 | 30 | 290 | 870 | | Selwink | 27 | 315 | 820 | | purepasd | 29 | 230 | 810 | | AbhishekLFC | 30 | 250 | 810 | | Marcovdw | 31 | 215 | 800 | | Aquarius | 24 | 200 | 760 | | emre99 | 29 | 230 | 700 | | Croatia14 | 31 | 190 | 490 | | Ian Butler | 6 | 50 | 245 | | Luxemburger | 7 | 90 | 165 | | Squire | 4 | 60 | 100 | | trekbmc | 2 | 0 | 0 |
Raziz increases his lead at the top again with Jandal failing to score. Abhishek ties up with Purepasd for fourth while reducing the gap to Selwink for third. Marco outscores all barring Raziz ahead of him, keeping the pressure up. Behind him, Aquarius closes the gap again with the win. Emre loses ground and Croatia is still stuck in no man's land.

Last time I checked Smith and Bevin were on the startlist, but Smith was removed (who was my bet for the top-20) and Bevin didn't make it.

Entries for Quebec and Montreal are now open.
Deadline:
Quebec - 8th September, Midnight, GMT
Montreal - 10th September, Midnight, GMT
Bonus Questions:
Quebec - Will a new country win the race? (Previous winners are Australia(x2), Belgium, France, Netherlands, Colombia, Slovakia) - 10 points
Montreal - Will we have the first repeat winner? (Previous winners are Gesink, Rui Costa, Nordhaug, Sagan, Gerrans, Wellens, GVA) - 10 points
With the incoming MG madness starting on 8th, it would be wise to get those entries in early.
