@Nacho - IAM is built for the cobbles and they took them well
@Ollfardh - Yeah not great for MOV, but after your start i wouldn't complain
@welker - Solid?! More like brilliant! Kristoff really surprised me and your points tally got a nice boost
@Hobbit - Belkin finally decided to show up! Could it be the start of a charge?
@Fdog - 2nd post holds the updated rankings. Porte was very good indeed

Horner 3rd is acceptable for sure 
And Cancellara is a beast!

Jürgen Roelandts alright, Crit Int slightly disappointing.

A lot of points from every race today. And in every terain (mountains, cobbles, sprints)
Especially Tejay beating Quintana in Crit.Int (youth class). and the performance of the whole team in CDK were awesome
A Big Thank You To All MG Reporters! |

Was expecting a bit more from Crit Int, but can't complain. Cobbles are not for my team. |

Also this now puts the MFS roughly on par with EPIC in terms of time into season 
Will try and get through the rest of April and all of May tomorrow

A load of races up there and some descent results from Astana, the signing of Terpstra kind of pays off.
We are hovering around the top 10 spot at the moment, if we can finish in the top 10 I would be happy as Astana arguably has the most promising squad for seasons to come.
I have a sneaky feeling we will do something at Sibiu. |

This caused me to open my Excel file of development and check out various potentials.
Astana are decent for future talent, but certainly not the best looking team

Well we have Moser/ Aru/ Lutsenko/ Nerz and Haller. All of those guys could 'potentially' become the best is their respective disciplines. We also have Tangert/ Guardini/ Boasson Hagen, all capable of improving vastly, even though they are solid riders already.

Froomedawg is in da house.
Predictably nowhere on the cobbles, that was without a doubt a quiet section for us. Plenty more to come though - looking forward to an acceleration in the season.

As quickly as they appeared, Belkin disappeared. 13th our best... 
Edit: Are the rankings wrong?
