It was fun while it lasted, we need an Oomen attack tomorrow!
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

Amazed that Denz is hanging in there, if he can keep a top 20 and Young Rider podium it would be a great result. It looks like Flügel is riding in support for Denz!
Thanks for the super reports Ulrich.

Funny how every other relegation threatened team have been scoring big this month, and here we are, fighting over scraps

Schreurs has been showing signs of weakness on previous stages, and today finally lost a lot of time. I'm disappointed he's not able to perform at the level of Calmejane, Waeytens and Denz, as I feel like he's easily had that in him before this season. Now we have to hope we can succeed with a break and get a stage result before the race ends.

Nothing in store for us, but it's been a very interesting race to follow with such detailed reports and packed action! Calmejane leading is also a curious perk. Congrats on the win CT.

Oh jeez
Now the hope has to be on Sakalou to deliver a result through the KoM jersey. He looked quite exhausted at the end of the stage so i hope he will save energy on the next two stages and go for the big points on stage 8. Maybe someone else (Moazemi?) Could go for it on S6.
A Big Thank You To All MG Reporters! |

I'm very surprised Mohoric still is in the conversation for a podium or at least the Top5. Hopefully he can get us there.

What are you talking about, we've probably scored 20 pts over the last 20 RD's 
If Beltran doesn't find a way to finish top 3 in this race... well it's gonna spell trouble.

I've been keeping an unofficial rankings file and the good news is that you scored more than 20 points over those 20 RDs. The bad news is you've scored more in 5 RDs so far here than you did in that last 20 |

Well it can't be much more than 20 pts 
I know I scored more here, but I hope to score around 200 pts here, so still a lot to do for Beltran

Well its not looking too great, but with one stage where gaps will occur its not over yet atleast. 2 seconds separates 7-9th so lots could change.

Wow, it's really quite stupid to let three riders of that caliber steal 2 minutes like that in a hilly stage race where every second counts...
EBH should have led the race by now. Hopefully he will when we reach the finish line of the last stage. |

Big one by Palini, congrats Abhi attentive riding by Mohoric. Another stage that would've been a must win for Kump in PCM15 turned out to be absolutely nothing in PCM18 for us though.

Philips doubling up today, love to see it

Boring stage from our perspective, no time lost is the main thing. Hoping for another boring stage tomorrow so Beltran can rest and attack in the last stage.

Next time loss for De Bie and all others. By now they should at least try to join the break or attack at some point. |

Another day in yellow, we'll take that!
Hopefully also wearing it on the last stage of the tour, but I fear that Calmejane will slide down the rankings when it matters the most. |

Another anonymous day in the saddle for us. At least it is good to see Phillips find a much needed random win.
Let's see how that flat stage works tomorrow.
