YES YES YES
LLS is unbelievable. Even the MG UCI struggles to stop him from winning 
It turns out that Aegon is the big loser from the replay. Had to be expected though that Aru can't follow the best on a hilly stage like that.
Eventhough the gap is not quite 10 minutes LLS still is in the position where I want him to be and where he can contest the win goal we have here. Yellow jersey bonus should come handy as well. Go for it!
The rest of the team also with a strong performance. Mohoric ( and Siskevicius ) high up themselves and joining the break on a stage like this is never too bad as well. Nice!
A Big Thank You To All MG Reporters! |

Now that's a deserved victory! Glad LLS came away with a stage-win in this first two days 
Poor showing from Kelderman or Klemme though. Quite enjoyable stage with those splits anyway. Nice to see Dowsett reasonable well.

Very good from Meyer, and also Juul-Jensen and Levarlet far up. Looks good for a couple of top 15's, or so, if this continues. Nice to be leading the teams classification also.
But my, oh my. What a season LLS is having, congrats knockout!

Best stage by Di Maggio since January, so we are happy and relieved at once.
Gratz to Evonik, LLS seems to be the perfect fit!

Shame Monfort couldn't follow LLS and Ben Nasser, but still a good result. He can now join the fight for the podium.
Very cool selective stage!

Very nice to see Dowsett quietly delivering, rather than quietly failing! Still right in the mix, and frankly, a Top 5 in GC would be a great result for him if he could hold it.

Macca underperforming slightly, but still in contention. Only six seconds off our goal of a top 5 at the moment, which, if achieved, would bring our goal count to 3/4.

hahahahahahahahahahahaha
We should have kept the first try. 
Stupidity wherever you're looking. Mountains, hills, cobbles, sprints. I can't believe we're even Top 10 at the moment with the amount of lost opportunities.
Previews said we have a leader for every terrain. Reality says that only means we can fuck things up on every terrain. Repeatedly.
And regarding our 'great depth that will certainly help us':
74 hill: 94th
72 hill: 98th
77 hill: 105th
76 hill: 114th
71 hill (but 4th yesterday): 117th
72 hill: 120th
While the only surprise is 77 hill Vogt who actually does what he's paid (justifiably very little) for. Wait for him to return to his normal self (aka the "it's June but I only scored 16 points"-self) in the next stages.

Good showing by Landa here. Happy with that performance! I would def. take a top ten in GC
LLS is just unbeatable no matter the stage settings it seems, well deserved win!

Bol shouldn't be last of that group.
Nice try Wilco, but could you do that next time without losing all GC hopes before already? Would really help. Thanks in advance.

Not a good stage, with the break getting involved with the GC again and Ben Nasser losing time to LLS and the other big guys. At least he's still on the GC podium, hopefully we'll see a repeat of stage 2's performance on one of the final two stages to cement that position. |

Good stage for Evonik since LLS could keep his lead and even mohoric and Siskevicius stayed high up in GC as well.
Thanks for the nice reports. A Small detail you could add in future is the info how far the (best) break members are behind in GC.
A Big Thank You To All MG Reporters! |

Now also Aegon coming closer to what they achieved in the "lost" stages. Definitely a huge stage with Olivier also moving up the GC that way. What's kinda stupid from the big guns, of course. At least they let no one moving up to 1st though. The action between the GC favorites definitely promises some more interesting stages.

Good performance from Meyer and Juul-Jensen. Not so much from Levarlet, but still holding on to that lead in the team classification.
Really surprised to see the break, and especially such a small break, get that kind of advantage. I hope that at least Meyer and Juul-Jensen/Levarlet can pass Le Gac and Oliver in the GC. If so, it looks like it would be a good race for us.
