Nice 3rd for Ratto. 
A good 4th for Mandri and Lavery with a great performance.
Also a nice podium for Mandri in Denmark, but Impey was just way too strong there. 
Good signings for the future. Lets hope they develop into great riders. |

@voets: I thought you would be happy with that OPQS result 
@mvh: It was less than a wheel that got Ratto 3rd. Future Rapha-Bianchi man Colbrelli 7th as well Mandri finally got a good sprint in, but yes, Impey was far too strong. Happy with the signings, and the 2014 squad

Tre Valli Varesine 
23rd August 2013
Our second Italian race at the end of the August, and small changes needed, as this prefers a puncheur style hilly rider.
Adam Yates and Davide Villella will lead the team, with Simon Richardson, Rene Mandri and Dan Lloyd working as domestiques to them.
Damien Howson and Trent Lowe will work as general team domestiques, whilst Henri St-Pierre will just ride to build up fitness ahead of the Tour de l'Avenir with Canada.
Sponsor Goal: N/A
Team Goal: Top 10 finish
Like at Coppa Agostoni, it was another large group that would attack from the off in Italy. Sadly, Rapha were unable to get a man in the break, as seemed to be asleep at the start. Even the smaller groups chasing the lead group were missed.
A number of teams took control of the peleton, as the break's lead extended to just over 8 minutes.
The break swelled to 12 riders as all the chase groups got together over the numerous climbs.
More teams joined in the chase of the larger breakaway group, and it was clear that it would be caught before the climb to the finish.
At the foot of the climb, the last members of the break were caught. Rodriguez (KAT) was the first to attack, with Nibali (AST) and Villella trying to bridge to him.
Victory goes to Rodriguez, as the Spaniard soloes to the win. Nibali comes home second, with Carlos Betancur (ALM) outsprinting the bunch for third. Sadly, Davide lacked race fitness, finishing in the peleton in 18th.

*** BREAKING NEWS ***
World Championships Team GB Pre-Selection Announced
With only one month to the World Championships in Tuscany in Italy, Team GB have released details of their Pre-Selection for the Road Race and Time Trial.
With both Chris Froome and Bradley Wiggins concentrating on the Time Trial rather than the Road Race, the pressure looks like it will fall to Peter Kennaugh to provide results.
Geraint Thomas and Ian Stannard are also present, along with many others who are expected to be named. However, Thomas has ruled himself out of the Time Trial to help as much in the Road Race.
The shock names come in the forms of Adam Yates, Simon Yates and Josh Edmondson.

Giro del Veneto 
31st August 2013
The final race of August, and on paper it looks for a very boring day, with a finish made for the sprinters. Yes, there are the two climbs within the last 20km of the stage, but they do not look to difficult to the fast men of the peleton.
Rene will again be the man for the sprints, with Lavery, Howson and Quaade providing his lead out.
Ludvigsson will be given a free role during the race, whilst Dan Lloyd and Simon Richardson will work as domestiques.
Villella will complete the squad, adding miles to his legs, but he will try something on the short climbs to try and mix it up at the end.
Sponsor Goal: N/A
Team Goal: Top 10
A group of 4 consisted of the break of the day, with Fredrik stretching his legs off the front of the peleton.
Astana and Atlas took control of the peleton, on what was a very uneventful day in the saddle.
Even the views of the local surroundings could not improve the entertainment of the race, as the peleton's lead peaked at 8'33".
The break was caught after the descent of the first climb near the finish, and looked set to be a bunch sprint finish to the race.
Despite Rene preparing his lead out train, Villella attacked over the crest of the final climb, and just had 5km of descending to take the win.
It was not to be for Villella as he is caught with 2km to go. Brambilla (ARH) takes the win, ahead of Bozic (AST) and Sabatini (CAN). Rene finished 9th, after being blocked during his sprint and losing his momentum.

Not the best results for the team, but not a shame due to lack of form. 
Not a surprise to see that the Yates brothers made the pre-selection. They got some great results this season. |

August Review - WorldTour Results
August sees the transition between the end of the Tour de France and the start of the Vuelta a Espana on 25th August. As with the other Grand Tours, the Vuelta updates will be posted separately, but as always, I bring you the round up of the other WorldTour Races.
Tour de Pologne 
Andrey Amador (MOV) caused a shock in Poland, taking the win in the final ITT, ahead of the Colombian pair of Rigoberto Uran (SKY) and Carlos Betancur (ALM). Thor Hushovd (BMC) also strangely walked away with the KoM jersey, as the GC men dominated the Points classification.
| . | Name | Team | Time | | 1 | Andrey Amador | Movistar Team | 31h12'56" | | 2 | Rigoberto Uran | Sky ProCycling | + 20 | | 3 | Carlos Betancur | AG2R-La Mondiale | + 4'41 | | . | | Pts | Andrey Amador | Movistar Team | | KoM | Thor Hushovd | BMC Racing Team | | U25 | Carlos Betancur | AG2R-La Mondiale | | Team | Movistar Team |
The quality of his Time Trialling and Cobbles ability was enough for Fabian Cancellara to take the win at the Eneco Tour. The Swiss rider took the win ahead of Tom Boonen (OPQ) and Lars Boom (BEL). Andre Greipel (LTB) won the post-Tour battle with Marcel Kittel (ARG), whilst Taylor Phinney (BMC) showed he is a future winner with a final display to take the U25 classification.

Vattenfall Cyclassics 
A late attack from Ramon Sinkeldam (ARG) was enough to take the win in Germany, ahead fellow breakaway companion Lars Bak (LTB). Nacir Bouhanni (FDJ) took the bunch of the peleton to complete the podium.

@voets: The Villella attack was hoped to be like the one you can do at Tour Down Under on the corkscrew climb. But there is a big difference between January form and August form. It is a lot hard to pull off.
@mvh: The form for Mandri should be peaking, so I was hoping for me. He may ride in France before ToB, but I was hoping for better result in Veneto. The Worlds selection is wide open really! I selected the best riders based on stats and what they could do. I may have a look in fast editor at the fitness stats of the other riders for an idea on who to pick in final selection.

Vuelta a Espana - Rest Day 1 
3rd September 2013
The final week of August saw the start of the third Grand Tour of the season - la Vuelta a Espana!
The 2013 edition is a Climber's dream, with 12 summit finishes long its route. The mountainous course, coupled with the high number of summit finishes, means that for the first time in a long time, the Overall GC winner could also walk away with the Points, KoM and Under 25 jerseys on their shoulders.
Here is how the racing has panned out so far...
| Stage | Type | Winner | Race Leader | | Vilanova de Arousa-Sanxenxo |  | RadioShack | T. Gallopin | | Pontevreda-Monte da Groba |  | S. Henao | D. Martin | | Vigo-Mirador de Lobeira |  | D. Martin | D. Martin | | Lalin-Finisterra |  | R. Kreuziger | R. Kreuziger | | Sober-Lago de Sanabria |  | J. Voigt | R. Kreuziger | | Guijeulo-Caraces |  | M. Kittel | R. Kreuziger | | Almendralejo-Mariena de Aljarafe |  | M.Cavendish | R. Kreuziger | | Jerez de la Frontera-Alto Penas Blancas |  | D. Martin | R. Kreuziger | | Antequera-Valdepenas de Jaen |  | M. Nieve | R. Kreuziger | | Torredelcampo-Alto de Haza Llana |  | W. Anacona | R. Kreuziger |
Roman Kreuziger (TST) lead the GC on the first rest day, with Mikel Nieve (EUS) in Second, 2'37" behind the Czech Stage Racer. Early leader Dan Martin (GRS) is in Third 3'25 down on the Saxo-Tinkoff man.
The Mountainous start to the race means that Kreuziger leads the Points Classification, with Martin leading the way in the KoM standings. Tejay van Garderen (BMC) leads a closely fought Under 25 Classification, with Wilco Kelderman (BEL) just 51" behind him.

Settimana Ciclistica Lombarda 
2nd - 4th September 2013
Only 2 more months left of the season, and an action packed end to the season kicks off in Italy.
With a hilly / mountainous parcourse ahead for the team, we have selected a team that can aim for a high GC finish. Villella will lead the team, and will be supported by Di Gregorio, Dan Fleeman and St-Pierre.
Damien Howson and Trent Lowe will work as domestiques, whilst Ludvigsson and Simon Yates will work in a free role.
Sponsor Goal: Stage Win(s)
Team Goal: Top 10 GC
Stage 1
Stage 2
Stage 3
Stage 1 (Brembate di Sopra-Valorta -- 168.4km): Joaquim Rodriguez (KAT) took the victory on stage 1, outsprinting Chris Froome (SKY) and Matteo Rabottini (VIN) in the uphill finish. David Villella was our best finisher in 11th. It was almost a day for Fredrik, who held off the peleton until 2km to go.
Stage 2 (Boltiere-Foppolo -- 153.3km): Stage 2 and again it was Rodriguez vs Froome on the Italian slopes. Froome came out on top this time, as no other teams could come close to them. Davide was again our best finisher in 14th.
Stage 3 (Gorle Seriate-Bergamo -- 159.1km: The final stage suited David, and we looked to try something on the final climb before the finish. As planned, Davide attacked, taking a large group of favourites with him. It was going to plan for Top 10 finish on GC, before Kessiakoff (AST) had other ideas. He attacked to take the stage win, and the bonus seconds pushed Villella down to 11th.
