Legendary stage win for Duarte, making up for everything so far in this race. We got our goal of the GC top-10 and a stunning stage win on top of it

Well... that wasn't 100% pathetic, but Talansky really struggled here and whilst Soupe did survive better than other sprinters we weren't able to capitalise on that either. Should still keep us just above panic for the moment.... just...

Congrats to Selwink on the stage win, thank you tsmoha for the great reporting. I'm very happy with how this went, should get a very good point haul!

Thanks for the great reports. Unfortunately, nothing for us here.

Really exciting final stage in Colombia. UBS looks set for promotion with this big haul of points. A bad day for Uran, which isn't good for Minions
"Great" that neither Azteca or Reddit came from this race with lots of points, but kinda sad to see Eastman struggling once again.
Thanks for the reports tsmoha!

Well, I knew Anacona had acceleration issues, but I didn't think it'd take 5 stages for him to show up
We got more points here than I could ever dream of though, thanks to our lord and saviour, Maxime Monfort. Regardless, I enjoyed obtaining a HC wildcard and meet with some big uns for once, and I hope to battle with most of you in PCT next season Thanks for reporting tsmoha, now go and make Repsol crash and burn in Japan please |

Brajkovic not convincing and clearly injured. Svab saved the tour with his amazing breakaway performance, but we could have taken much more. Thanks for the awesome reports!

In the end a Top 10 and 2 stage wins, I cant be too upset about that.
Thanks for the reports.

Slightly calmed down now...
Congrats Novatek on the final stage win and UBS on the deserved overall finish.
Úran with a weak day, shit happens. Luckily Pantano was in a very great shape, without him he would've lost even more. Shame to lose second place, Henao definitely deserves it though.
As for our relegation battle we have acquired enough points to have less worry. Not entirely convinced we're safe yet but some other teams will have to dig deep to catch us again.
And thanks tsmoha for the reports, only wish the last one was never posted

The upside is that we're all done with mountains for this season.
The downside is that w still haven't begun racing in mountains this season...

Very nice result for our team. Henao gradually improved over the 3 mountain stages and i'm happy with 2nd place. Amador is too strong for him.
Kolesnikov with some strange tactics early on but it turned into a good hunt for the KoM in which he came up short. Would've liked to see him a bit closer in GC.
thanks for the reports!

Interesting to see the breakaway tactics in this race, really challenging the main field.
Excellent final stage for Kudus too, to leap back up to 4th in GC, and ensure that Colombia is a good race for the team. Always satisfying when your rider attavks firet, and can't complain about losing out to Amador, Henao and Denifl.

Great reports from TSM, and great rides to report on. Amador was dominant, but various swings one way and t'other over the decisive stages for the other contenders made for great viewing. Each mountain stage was a real smash-fest!
