my personal goal is TOP10, but due to low number of races it will be hard, maybe impossible...time will show 
problem is my minus wage budget - I can´t sign no good riders after 1st of July...(and don´t want to make my game easier by editing budget in DB) |

that´s because there were only few races in last months, hope their mood will increase soon.
I´ve already played Tour of Japan stages 1-3, report later tonight or tomorrow |

You need a general great result on a race. Sponsor confident go down fast when salary cap is negative. |

We are back in Asia, welcome on Tour of Japan, another part of UCI Asia Tour. We are heading to quite hard race, but we are confident about our power, expecting good results here. The biggest names presented are Moreau, Landis and Moos. Sep Vanmarcke is my leader here.
Stage 1-3
First three stages of Tour are mostly flat, bunch sprint will probably decide about winners.
Stage 1
My boys were well placed in sprint, but finished on 3rd and 5th place only. John Murphy from OUCH won sprint and took leader´s jersey.

9 Alex Candelario Kelly Benefit Strategies s.t.
10 Yoshinori Iino Shimano Racing Team s.t.
Stage 2
Finnish was hilly today, Jean-Luc Delpech was the fastest, my men failed in sprint. Although this kind of finnish, 116 riders were classified with same time as winner.

Stage 3
Great day from Sep Vanmarcke, he attacked few km before line and kept his position until line! Due to bonus seconds he´ll wear yellow jersey tomorrow! He is current holder of sprinter and U25 jerseys as well.

I´m sorry that I forgot to mention one important thing from stage 3 before. Moreau and Landis crashed few km before finish and lost more then 3' in GC. Moreover Moreau looked to be injured.

Stage 4
Circuit stage with short but very steep hill (almost 10% gradient), riders will climb 13 times. I´m curious if we will be able to keep yellow jersey...
Vanmarcke was well protected by De Schrooder and later by Peeters whole stage.
This is not team trial, bad luck of team OUCH continues, Rory Sutherland crashed and whole team including Landis have waited for him. Unfortunately for them, they weren´t able to catch peloton.
This is early breakaway group, Rapha´s Richardson is part of it.
His team mate Greenwood launches first attack from pack with 23km to go.
Injured Moreau can´t keep the pace more.
Another attack from peloton, it´s Huguet, Moos and Vanmarcke!
Floriam Stalder is the ast man, which is going away from peloton.
Meanwhile Richardson attacks leading group!
7km to go, after last climb...E1 - Moos, Stalder, Richardson
E2- Huguet, Vanmarcke, Greenwood
Sep Vanmarcke tries to catch leading group...
...and he succeeds just before sprint!
Moos opens the sprint...
...but Stalder moves forward with Sep on his rear wheel!
Florian Stalder takes a win ahead of Vanmarcke and Richardson! Thanks to marvelous effort in last kilometres, Sep Vanmarcke hold his jersey to tomorrow´s time trial!!

I´m so happy with yellow jersey, but we´ll heading to brutal mountain time trial finishing on mythical Mt. Fuji. Moos with Stalder are much better climbers, so I don´t expect Sep will hold yellow jersey more.
