I hope my riders enjoyed their day off 
Thanks for the report, red. Was interesting to follow the gc battle! Congratulations to maxime for the stage and (very probable) GC win.

Wow well, I'm surprised as anyone that Novak won that stage. Honestly in pre-season planning I was expecting this to be won of his lesser worth races in PPRD, but I guess PCM AI taketh but also giveth.
Thanks for the reports as usual, RedOrDead, fingers crossed for nothing crazy w/ the last stage |

In all the complaining, I forgot to give him credit for a great race so far. Fingers crossed for the last stage!
Won't go on again about Kelderman because I've more or less accepted that he's not a rider PCM 18 likes. Maybe another game change will help, let's see. But that's a discussion for a different place.
Congrats to maxime again and thanks for the report

As I expected, nothing of note for us on the final stage. A bit unfortunate to lose JJ's 3rd in the points standings, but that's okay.
Congrats again to Maxime, and thanks again for all the great reports redordead!

Another stolen stage win, after the same happened already in Amissa Bongo. Can anyone explain how this is possible? Usually, the rider who crosses the line first should be the winner - correct me if I'm mistaken...
At least the win goes to Guillén, so I'm not that mad. But losing 5 points for the stage and 3 for the points standings isn't cool in a race that was absolutely horrible GC-wise.
Congrats to Nemo, though - you definitely owe me something now! 
And congrats to Carrefour on a surprisingly dominant GC win, and thanks for the reports to redordead.

iirc in PCM stages, the actual finish line that the game takes the winner at doesn't always exactly align with the rendered finish line. Don't remember how or why, but it's been an issue I've noticed while playing occasionally.

So a prolouge Keough was favorite for and a very reasonable sprint field and our best finish comes from a 24 yo TT rider. Nice work by Mostov in the break but not a great race.
Thanks for the reports and congrats to Maxime.

Van der Sanden once again disappointing being nowhere in the sprint. Waste of a signing.
We didn't quite get what we came for with the 'hill' rated stages playing out so as to suite climbers more. Storer with a nice little surprise U25 win is perhaps our first since a certain David Per was on our team, and that's a decent achievement.
Basically with this race, we lower our expectations back to that of our Sponsor Goal, a Top 5 finish and promotion from the division. If we can place in the Top 3 now, we'll be ecstatic.
Congrats to maxime once again on a dominant victory and also to Nemo for that last stage Thanks to redordead for the great coverage!

Me next to my girlfriend in the couch while reading the report:
https://www.youtu...zoFarinato
I have no clue what Fabianski is talking about, Guillén clearly was meters ahead of Scully  April 15th will forever be remembered as International Guillén day in our HQ (unless he manages to win another stage somewhere) - I'm happy working in the peloton and making a train worked out for once (if it wasn't for us, it would have been for Scully). But yeah it must suck for Fabianski or anyone who sees those images while their rider is second, I'm happy it is their former chouchou, which gives some sort of consolation
Thanks for the thanks Congratulations to all winners again, and many thanks to redordead for a clear, detailed and great reporting over the last eight days! Looking forward to your next report(s)!
