Also it`s not very important now as the 8th in the GC get`s 0 points after 3 stages. Just the first 3.
And in the end there will be gaps probably.
But as others said, the average placing is the important one. In PCM and also in many real races. |

Nice to see my "old guys" Hushovd, Poulhies and my future young gun Novak doing good.
Especially, I am surprised with Poulhies, he did really nothing for me in last 2 seasons.

As I saw the result I remembered you saying that when I first brought him into the team. I don't think he will do anything outside of France though.

Another two Top 10 placings on a flat stage, Saab was unbeatable again. I just can hope that Kessler finishes ahead of Ginanni and Di Maggioagain tomorrow.

I like how Focused are getting in lots of breaks again! Reminds me of when Wiggle started up.

Same here with Rothaus. Lots of breakaways, but this is probably due to the non favourite teams. I don`t mind.
Just a bit more luck with Koep or Novak in the final two stages and a good KoM result is possible. |

Why was Rothaus doing the pace in the one picture? Seriously, let the bigger teams do the work or attack later on the stage then. 
Also a bit surprised the the profile in the discussion thread was 149km and a hill in the end and the one in the result thread just 146km and without a hill. With the 10% in the end I think you played the 149km version? |

Well, I suppose Ginanni did attack.....
That's 3 in a row where the stage categorization has been iffy for us.

Yeah, you can see the hill after the finish in the profile on the results thread, no idea why distances are different

nothing personal against Team Venchi, but I really hope that Di Maggio won´t be able to follow more complex riders on Mt.Faron

Mt. Faron might be a surprise - my guess is it could be set in the .db to favour someone with a decent mountain stat. |

I hope so for Hesjedal. But with just 0,2 ratio riders like Ginanni will still be better than Hesjedal. But riders like Di Maggio or Roy might become problems to follow Ginanni. |

Don`t think so. Even with the 0,2 ratio Ginanni is 79,6, Di Maggio still 78,6 and Hesjedal just 74,2. Kolobnev and Vanendert still 76,0.
Hill is still more important here, but Hesjedal is definitely better on this mountain than on small hills even if it`s just a tiny 0,2. |

I like how we race this race! 
Stage Win, 4th place, stage win and then 3rd place.
Now it´s up to Wyss and Eltink to do some good things 
And also nice with our helmet and frame!
Thanks BoogieBoogie and Felix_29 |

Wow, just got to see this now, and I have to say I'm pretty stunned by Biondo's victory in Stage 2, and got to wear the yellow jersey for one day. That has really made this Tour for my team. I just wish one of my guys will be able to reach a final top10 place.

Disappointing final for me. Schillenger in the break was good, but Smukulis was just bad. He had some good placings in flat sprints so i hoped he would do at least as good in the hilly final.
It also has a positive side, the next stage can´t be as bad.
