Congratulations Brewers!
And yes, despite Eijssen's best efforts, 12th isn't good enough and I'm convinced Wellens would've done better. Too many similar stage racers in my team to make a clear pecking order I guess.
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

God damn what a tight sprint! 4th ok from Appo, in that field podium has to be minimum if we want to stay in the promotion battle.

This giro has been our worst race ever in ICL. Or at least for sure our worst GT. Really unhappy with Di Gregorio here, can't say anything about the rest of my filler riders but still.
YUGE congrats to brewers for his ludicrous race! That's a once in a lifetime thing right there, but good stuff to everyone else who got good pointerinos out of this.

Meh... It's all I can say about GP Moscow and Copenhagen ITT. At least May was better than I expected in my preview.
Congratulations Brewers for amazing Giro! |

sad stuff that Herklotz lost a place, would've loved him at the podium for Celesio
but losing it to de Gendt is not too bad, cause he's a fantastic rider at a fantastic team...

I feel like this has been the worst GT in terms of leadouts for Kittel. More often then not he was released pretty far behind (from what i can guess from the 4k to go pics and the results) and thus, he wasnt be capable of his usual dominance..
Generally, a lot of ups and a few downs lately. Rankings looking good so far but i feel like we should have more at this point already...!
And congrats Brewers, dominant Giro from your team. Guess you're back in contention to match my prediction 
A Big Thank You To All MG Reporters! |

No wonder all 8 guys finished the race since none of them was particularly great, not a single Top 5 result... help me.. >_>
Thanks for the stats bikex.

We lost 2 points to our relegation rivals Vegeta, that's the saddest thing about it

Wow, I have déjà vu. In Prestige Ranking only difference between this and previous year is 3 points. Same place and almost same number of points. But 3 places higher than last year in CT Ranking. |

van Garderen wrecks everybody else with one GT
also what a fantastic job by Uran to bring us into the Top 5 of the WT standings after the hilly classics and before Quintana started his season, nice!
Morton scoring one hell of a bunch of points for D2B there
And the Top5 teams in the CT rankings are just lovely!

That's how close the relegation battle really is. It's between us 4, one will stay afloat, the other 3 will drown. Exciting.
