Good result from Villella in Pais Vasco! Again not a lot of stage points though, hopefully we'll be more active in the breaks in the coming races.
Thanks for all those results Croatia and Shonak, February really is a short month in every sense of the way.

SAP! De Gendt still got it, what a month for them.

CHAVES!  Wow what a month this is, both our climbers with GC wins, just amazing. Great stuff and enough to make me ignore Appo underfiring again. If we carry this momentum going forward it could be huge, but for now it's just about enjoying it, and especially enjoying Chaves' first big GC race for us.
Also shout-out to PureBlack rider Padron in 2nd of the KoM standings, really nice to see and making it a worthwhile CT trip.

Happy with 5th on GC and the Young rider for Mullen in the Algarve, Ciolek with decent results. Not a lot of racing for KBC this month.

Thanks Shonak for all the results and videos. Indeed weird that Lutsenko was so weak in Pais Vasco but at least Boily made up for it somewhat with a decent race.
ICBC going really strong. 
I have posted the rankings update. Grupo Argos already early with a big gap to the next teams, doubt they'll be caught. Other than that the rankings are still dominated a lot by CT teams this early in the season.
Edit: I will post the first World Cup standings after March! |

Slow start for Suntory, good to see the our Dev team in second place.
Thanks for the reports Shonak and for the ranking update Bikex.
Note that I am moving house soon and it may be a while before I get internet at the new place so apologies if I am not very active over the next month or so.

Well, it actually look better than I was expecting. Quick first WT win - from the breakaway but win is a win. Decent GC place because of that... and it looks good so far after February racing. Looking forward to next months. Thanks for all racing and bringing this back  |

Good luck with the move, D2B!
Still early days of course. Ceramica Panaria last in the CT for now! Argos with a perfect start, happy to see Aviva still so well placed - but it's only based on 13 out of 180 WT race days.

Thanks for the update Bikex! Guess points from National Capital Tour aren't added yet though since Chaves is still on his January total, so I'm happy with where we are now but looking forward even more to where we are with that too
As Ripley said with Ceramica and other good teams not starting their seasons off yet really we have to build up a headstart, and we did really well this month.
And also great to see Argos at the top already in the WT.

Bring on the cobbles, the other things aren't really working
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

First few races of March posted
Good luck moving, D2B!
Spoiler I made a video for Omloop but nothing happened so I decided to not upload it.
Strade Bianche, Roma Maxima and Vuelta Tachira once the preview is online.

February wasn't so bad afterall for us, considering that we only participated in 1 race. Cobbles will be really painful, as we have absolutely noone for them (Couldn't get Senechal unfortunately ).
Thanks Shonak and Bikex for all the races and the rankings update!

A shame as Wackermann should be winning that sprint, but 2nd is a solid result especially with nice depth scoring with Bennett 9th, Ventura 14th and Kadri 17th, don't mind that at all - hopefully this can be a fresh start for Wackermann after the AI fail in Gabon earlier!

I have like no clue what's happening, Omloop a 61 rider mass sprint? (and Vandenbergh is still last )
Tirreno a more reasonable sprint, although no idea what Danny's up to this year.
Happy with Serry winning a race though! Downside is he stopped racing for us last year.

Yeah, Omloop seemed a bit random, slightly embarrassing that Thomas did so well, he's already proven to be a great signing. Great victory for Clarke in the T-A Clasica, from the breakaway, surviving by a bike length. Plus Fenn beat Kittel!

Not the best set of races for us, but that's okay. Greg and Julian keeping us on track, depth not doing well though.
