Yea, Negri is one on your team. Essentially riders need to be high hills/endurance without being high in Mountain/Sprint/Cobbles to get that.
Thanks. And just to double check - rider type is related to their potential in different attributes? |

Depends on it. After one season Kittel will be the second best sprinter (in my DBs at least), so that can give you some points. Imo you're the top favourite together with UK Youth to relegate after season 2 though, so you'll need some signings 
Btw, ctrl+scroll?

The teams that get the most one-day stages and the least GTs |

Yes, I do find it strange you can score more points winning a one-day classic than you can winning some of the bigger stage races |

My team could be down there as well, I lack a top top sprinter for stage wins to get points that way, and my Leaders are likely to pick up a lot of top5-10's but few higher than that, so we might have a tough season!

In ideal cases, stage race wins are race wins+stage win+sprint classification+youth classification, so that'll give you a lot of points. But I agree that winning LBL is much, much more interesting than trying to win the Tour.
And good luck fjhoekie

Correct, the DB will give them potentials based on a set of options for each rider type.
Tour - Very High Mountain, Time Trial, Recovery. Good in Hill, Pro, Resistance. Bad Sprint, Cobbles.
Flat - Very High Flat/Plain, Fighter/Baroudeur. Good in several other categories.
Climber - Very High Mountain, Hills, Resistance. Good Acceleration, Fighter. Bad everything else.
Sprinter - Very High Sprint, Acceleration, Flat/Plain. Good Stamina, Recovery, Prologue.
Time Trial - Very High TT, Prologue, Resistance. Everything else is Random, can be good or bad.
Puncher - Very High Hills, Endurance. Good Mountain, Resistance, Acceleration.
Cobbles - Very High Cobbles. Good Flat, Fighter, Stamina, Resistance.

I should be able to get 2 men in the top 10 in those races

According to the most recent rules you're allowed to request 10 WT wildcards. I'm not sure if Kentaurus will decide who races what or the game will. But I'm almost sure you'll get your favourite races.

Yea I want to have our Conti teams filling out the WT events, so giving them lots of wildcards.
Just like real world, wild card invites will be based off of performance, expectations, and nationality. Favorite races will also play some role. In Pinktay's case, my guess is an invite to TdU is very likely  .

Sorry, explain to me how to do this? Do I click on the jpeg for my team, then press CTRL + Cursor? I can't seem to find a scroll key on my Mac |

Do you have a mouse? Just move the little wheel on it. That's what I meant with scrolling.
@Kentaurus:
based off of performance
How is that possible if you have to plan a whole season at a time?
