Anyway, just realized that Danielson took Steurs' jersey. It's pretty disappointing that I'll lose the points related to the KOM leadership considering the fact Danielson just took one KOM sprint or whatever.
I dont understand the game in that respect. One of the Ultimate riders took the jersey early on, the next stage somebody went level on pts but the Ultimate rider kept the jersey.
But when Steurs took it and then Danielson went equal on pts, Danielson took it over. Odd.
Like how im not really sure how it has decided the order of 4-12 in the GC

Isn't it the placing on the stages combined or something?

The KOM thing is probably decided by the place in the GC. I checked the results in Stage 2 and Jeannesson had an higher GC position that the rider with the same points as him. |

Perhaps, but it's a tad strange that the GC didn't change from Stage 5 to Stage 6. |

That last stage of Langkawi was unbelievable, Evans with 2 crashes, crazy. Nice to see the my former rider Napolitano get a stage win, kudos. And nice 2nd by BMC.

well we hadn't the best start of the season but 418 so far are great as only the first 2 teams seems to be doing way better than the others. Still hoping to get into top5
Now I just have for Giro del Capo to see Reus kicking their asses

Mission almost accomplished. Wanted a couple of stage wins and got them, but Basso's crash cost me a top 5 on GC. So, I'm almost happy... |
