There won`t be special shirts for the CC winners.
Those unique jerseys will remain with NC`s and WC`s only. |

Nice!!!! and thanks guys
I hope it was the first of many victories throughout the season... It is good and gives enough hope to see Fiedler being able to beat the best in this specialty...
It was a good TT and unlike the previous season we did not see big surprises

Not sure if Viviani was supposed to suck this much. Fact is that he did. And so did Ghyselinck.
This one really got me scared, hopefully the rest of the season we won't underperform this much, considering all goals are tt dependent.

Poor stuff from Durbridge... Li also not too impressive. And then Kwok is winning 
You are allowed to cheer for us again, now that we aren't in the same division
Very happy with Kwok winning, a good start to the season.

Considering the company he has here, ill take a 17th from Salas!
Nice to see some 'normal' winners like phinney and fiedel aswell in the tt randomness.

Just getting into the top 10 is a huge accomplishment for our team. Might even mean we don't finish dead last in the Monterrey team time trial.

A little bit unexpectedly Habtom even haven't take a bigger part in helping his team mates, even through Afewerki at least was able to win the final sprint in the peloton... 49th nothing great for Habtom, really - not the greatest first ever race for him. 19th for our ex-loanee Cisse is even a bigger disappointment, but at least he has qualified for ICC.
And we have another a bit suprising winner, this time probably even a bigger one than Mandri in Euro B. The other two medals are going to two a bit more exected favourites, but surprisingly not in a sprint. And especially Saber is continuing to impress in his first races in MG. Congrats to all the managers of the guys on the podium!

Pretty cool and interesting road race there, it will be interesting to see if it will be just as "easy" to destroy the peloton when the team mates get stronger.
Big congratulations to FroomeDog99! And as Roman says, Saber is very impressive in the early stages of this season, though, admittedly he'll be up against tougher competition when the racing for points starts. |

That's crazy, I can't believe we won both the RR and TT with basically unknown domestiques. Amazing stuff from Ariko, somehow defying his mediocre stats to ride away from the field
We are officially the kings of Africa! Thanks for the reports roro. |

Bewley not finishing top 3 
Good work from Marzuki to bring his team mate in a position to get the podium 
A Big Thank You To All MG Reporters! |

Bewley 
Howard 
Big thanks to team Malaysia. What a lead-out for both my Becherovka sprinters. I had some hopes for two medals in this race, but Bewley failed quite hard. Not even a medal, hopefully this is not the usual view of this season for him. Bad tactics from him while he was in an ideal position.
Also not ideal to see PCM probably still can't handle two big sprinters for one team... Or maybe MG version of Goss just replicates his real form.
Also I am happy to see two our ex-riders A-Nepo and Jaser finishing 5th and 11th. Both of them became really decent riders.
Thanks for the report.

I hope Scully isn't this useless in the real season.

So far Salleh hasn't missed the podium in all 4 days of flat racing he's contested so if he can keep this up then we'll be in for an amazing season and he'll be a threat for the individual standings.
Oh and he's always had the strongest/ only leadout which is another thing I'm hoping to see continue.

Wow, really wanted to sweep the Asian races, but a 2nd place, with Itami beating Bewley is still somewhat of a nice accomplishment.
