It makes no sense that you control your own team, are you seriously starting the sprint with the same amount of men as all the other teams together?

7. All else average 6-7, so ask yourself this and read above, we just went over this.

fcancellara has a point...
in the 1,9km screen LG (your control team) has 7 riders in the front 15 or so riders.
Youtube is the only other team with a leadout, and that is 2 riders, one of whom is the sprinter.
Looking back over old stages there is a pattern that shows LG benefiting from being actively controlled...
If you want to run any sort of test or any sort of game you cannot have an active control team...
You do not behave the same as the AI, and the effect of difficulty on stats will start having an effect, which leads to unreliable results.
This is a major issue that needs to be addressed to get any sort of decent feedback about how it will work when done properly

Agree, you can participate in your own game of course, but it needs to be passive like the rest of us 
Any chance we could also see the other jersey standings? As a "sprinter team" I would be interested in the points jersey mostly 
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

Apologies for the short absence.
@TheManxMissile: You make some good points. However, only Le Noir actually does make the top 10, and I only 3D'd(?) the last stage and this one, so that argument is antilogical.
@Ollfardh: Yeah, it was my mistake not using a control team, it kind of slipped my mind.
@SSJ2Luigi: And get rid of screens? I can, of course, just play on extreme so that I can only win once in a hundred times.
Stage 5 takes the remaining riders out of Mansfield and southwest through the Appalachian hills. Though classified as "Flat", the hilly stage is by no means a stage for ill-prepared sprinters. After the descent from the forest, the riders will face short, steep undulations sure to drop at least the weakest.
Shall we begin?

96.7km left: After about an hour on their machines, the peleton has collectively decided that not even one man shall escape into the BOTD, so the question of pace is yet to be decided.
