Proof Vesely performs best with no teammates to screw him over
But we have our first jersey!
Happy to see the Minions do well, definitely after the Zepuntke disaster

Well at least that TT title is in the bag.
Congrats to Minions!

Missed chance for Manninen, but can't blame him for not having teammates of course. Still not convinced Finland actually exists anyway, so no problem. Apart from obviously winning the double in Peru I'm not sure we have any chances anywhere else, but always fun to follow the nc's in general. Thanks again for the great work, cunego!

Wasn't expecting to take the Bulgarian RR title (as the TT is pretty much a lock), let alone the whole thing. Another instance of...AI being unpredictable in a sprint

Lovely to have Anderberg as a double champion, that will be cool to see when next season starts. Hopefully he'll get some coverage as well when we hit the cobbles
And wow, that combined road race was sensational for us, with also Kaislavuo and Frankovic bringing home titles We have never really had a lot of national champions, but now we suddenly have got four RR champions, including Videika too. Very enjoyable! |

Videika is a sleeper agent.
That's two (maybe) TT NCs down the drain for us

Great to see McCormick hero Frankovic lock up his 3rd consecutive Croatian RR title (and no 1 rider freebies either). Could be his 4th but wasn't around in 2018 and haven't bothered to check.

Great ride for Forssell in the TT. Just the wrong nationality.

So no RR jersey on the road next year (Bridges being post-decline ain't getting renewed or signed by anyone i expect).
Appreciate splitting he Caribbeans over two different sets of races. Gayral atleast gets the TT, and i'm ok with the rest.

Quispe confirming his status as a legend once again. He could easily become the champion on the road and in the time trial, but nah. He could shush all the haters with a slick jersey in PT after single-handedly bringing us there in two seasons, but nah. One attack and nobody would be able to follow him, but he wanted to give his young teammate the joy of winning. Then he even acts if he is sprinting for the win himself, just to make sure Ruiz doesn't think he was given the win. What a joy of a rider to have in our team.

Good stuff by Perera. Expected, but there's always a surprise factor, so I'm glad he got it done. I'm not sure he'll be with us next year given sprinters' wage demands in renewals, but we'll see. His chances have improved now.

Great win from Paez! Hasn't been the most successful NC campaign from the team but that's a good one for us

Cannister getting the RR and Sulvaran getting the TT works for me.

Bravo makes it 5 national champions He also makes a case for a new contract, as I wasn't sure about re-signing him or not ahead of next season. |

Two Guatemalans I suggested last season got signed as a stag in different teams, and now they both won an NC. Hopefully Sam gets a contract extension at Aramco / Zara
Finkler winning in Brazil is also magical.

Weird that the NCs we won were the ones with no other teams in them
