So annoyingly close for Steensen on stage 6. Just give me that win already. If just Pluchkin had tried to sprint on stage 7, he should be the fastest in there.
But anyway nice to see Steensen being so strong and cool to have two Danes fighting it out for the stage with my Dane beating Crue's Dane

Oh okay... But I meant more like a specific thread for it, instead of in these discussion threads 
I know about how much I will get myself, so that is okay |

Popo was disappointing today that said we met our goal of a Top-5 with the podium. Good reporting, a job very well done. |

Nice tour A KoM jersey win, a good few top 10 finishes, and a 3rd on the final stage which bumped Plaza up to 4th overall. Good reporting as well!

I can't complain too much with the second place in a stage looking at my team, but 31th from de la fueta still a little dissapoiting.
I must say I'm 'happy' that Schleck won it in the end tho, as Accumalux is much less a threat to me in the teams classification then Rabobank is right now
btw; fenian, you're strongly suggesting Schleck's taken EPO in the last screen huh? |

Rankings Update - including pts from Tirreno and Paris-Nice
La Gazetta were already close to the lead, but theyve now taken it and pulled out a 200 point advantage after a good Tirreno. Rabobank, Festina and Virgin lead the chase to remain in touching distance, with Gesink helping Rabobank hold off Festina after Sanchez had won in Italy. With no major results since California, former leaders Wikipeda have slipped to 5th.
Less than 200 pts separates positions 6-15, with Accumalux now 13th and out of the bottom 2 thanks to Schleck's Paris-Nice triumph. British Airways replace them there and although Eurosport still remain a distant last, Paris-Nice saw them gain their first decent points haul.
1 La Gazzetta dello Sport 1475
2 Rabobank 1260
3 Festina - Seiko 1238
4 Virgin Media - Caisse d'Epargne 1201

14 Unicef RT 682
15 Domina Vacanze 674
16 SIC Radical - Timberland 545
17 British Airways - Martini 527
18 Eurosport 335
La Gazetta are back on top of the individual standings as well, Daniele Bennati was by far the best sprinter in Tirreno which helped him gather points. Sanchez, Pozzato, and Nibali all used Tirreno as their 2nd decent points haul as they climb into the Top 5, while the first scores for Schleck and Gesink are enough to place them in the Top 10.

Good to have a solid lead before I start to do down
Only in the Criterium International which is coming up I hope to score a decent amount of points, after which I'll have to wait for the Ardennes and the Giro to come up. After that I should be leading by a shit load of points to be able to win the PT in the end.
But that's stil a looong way  |

Ardila managed to take 2nd in the last stage. Too bad he wasn't winning it, as this means my goal has failed.
Still getting Mauricio in 6th overall is great. This is, mark my words, one of our weakest races in the overall, atleast on paper!! |

Good job by Gesink. Came so close to winning, had their been a longer TT, i suspect i would have won, but all and all to lose only to Franck Schleck is indicitive of a job well done. Took home the White jersey, and completed a team goal by getting a top 5 place in the race, so good job Rabobank. Oddly enough i thought we would be a team fighting relegation, there is still a chance of that, but we have had a good start to the season.
Now it is time for Steegmans to show his worth on the cobbles.
I tell you, i really wanted a third straight Paris-Nice title, we'll just have to start a new steak next season.
