Those crashes are just annoying.
Nice racing by Stake Laengen and Juul-Jensen. Stake has most likely secured himself the role as captain for next year's edition as well if the cobbles are at the end of the race.
Congratulations to Milka-AVG! They're looking strong for 4th place on the overall ranking now.
Speaking of ourselves, we're still in the mix for a top 10. Though, we probably need to overtake Festina. Pokerstars and Simply Red Bull must have got a close to decisive gap back to us after this race.
Thanks for the reports, roturn. They were all nice to read. |

Wow, that's a real bummer. I probably would have thrown a tantrum if Schumacher was involved in that. Great reports roturn, you really made this an awesome race.

Ahh. That one hurts, especially with the 5th place from Jakub Danacik.

Is it me, or does this happen mostly on final stages with laps in them?

I feel for you man..really bad luck
Very surprising to see Danacik in the top 5, especially considering he got 55 in cobbles. It would have made sense if it was Ballan who came 5th, but then again, not much make sense with Cya logic. Nevertheless, I happily take it!

Loosing two riders in the final stage makes a rubbish tour worse.

Holy shit, this was as awful as it gets.
Nuyens with a performance that definitely changes my mind.
I was trying to be tender to him and included him in some 2014 plans, but this is probably the final nail in the coffin.
Okay, the cobbles AI was horrible. But how the hell did he go from being safely inside the group to being 10 minutes down??
So instead of getting some more points in between us and B&O, the recent races were a disaster and put us in danger to get overtaken by all-domestiques lineups...
I hope I didn't jinx it completely.
Bennati and VDB to the rescue, burn in hell Nick!

Stay classy 
We really have to compensate the inevitable TTT points loss in Praha-Karlovy Vary-Praha. Tasmania and Lombardia are too unpredictable for an outsider like VDB...
