I thought it was because of his god ugly riding style, Mochema kinda fits to that image.

Thanks Shonak for the USAPCC update. Spilak seems to do really well in races you report.
Stages 11&12 of the Vuelta up, next stage will be the time trial:https://pcmdaily.com/forum/viewthread....st_1101204 |

Yeah, he's a proper beast this season, though I was fairly surprised by this dominaion. I've added winner pic of stage 3, I forgot it in the initial upload.
Vuelta gets too many breakaway wins. Seems like the leader teams are too weak to decently pull and now losing time on Fatancur is horrible. Purito will have to be magic in third week to make up for the immident TT time loss.

Mollema should be the superior time trialer, hoping we can get a good gap here
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

Finally Nerz with our first top 10 in this Vuelta... Good to see he is now 11th in the GC with a decent chance to get in the top 10. Hopefully he has a good TT and an even better 3rd week. |

Well, stage 12 sums up our Vuelta. The WC, one of top puncheurs ever, can't follow Pimienta from a break on a hilltop finish.
Sure we have the stage favourite for stage 13, but he won't finish on the stage podium such is the baloney we are receiving.
Thanks for the updates. |

USAPCC leaves me a bit disappointed. Yeah, Guarnieri with a really decent 2nd in 2nd stage but for the rest my team is not being really that good, starting from Rosa, whose I would have expected more.
Still some stages to go though so hopefully we can get more points out of it!
Thanks for the update, Shonak!

Costa just getting worse and worse.
Niece still holding 4th somehow.

It's great that my riders keep jumping into the break when the sprinters are without a chance. Both Gerdemann and Burghardt got benefits from their efforts and if one of them can jump into the break again on a mountainous stage then they can also contest the KoM jersey.
A Big Thank You To All MG Reporters!

Jasper Bovenhuis is seriously impressive here at the Vuelta. Within 2 minutes of Barguil and Yates in the youth classification is an amazing effort from him, hopefully he'll be protected fairly well now that Gesink is almost 10 minutes back. If only we'd send a rider into the break more than once, a KOM contender would be possible too.

Another shit performance by us. At least Bibby tried something and almost pulled it off.
Unbelievable double Zabel to wrap it up as well.

Guarnieri only decent point scorer for us but definitely not enough
Bit of a disappointing race overall but Koretzky in stage 7 is priceless
Thanks Shonak.

Valverde
best rider in the peloton at USAPCC, 1st of the peloton, 1st of the peloton and 2nd of the peloton behind Talansky who was 9 minutes behind already in the mountain stages.
Bulgaria - Air just not a team fit for leading the peloton = breakaway wins

USAPCC went better than expected with a win from the break by Florian Guillou and Joe Dombrowski getting 1st in Young Rider and 9th in GC.
Joe making a case for some upgrades to come his way. He will need loads to compete with Spilak on this kind of form.

Woohoo, Pimenta wins a stage from the break
Pretty awesome as König always hangs on with the best, so my guys don't get in breakaways too often..

Sorry for the delay, but now stages 13-15 are up: https://pcmdaily.com/forum/viewthread....st_1101205
I also added the first 4 stages of the most important race for the U23 league Tour de l'Avenir. |

I have nothing to say about the Vuelta. Sick and tired of it really.
But, at least we can't fail at Avenir too.

Carlos delivering a worse time trial than I feared, but he is still in the top three, the guy really had a great start to the race.
Nice to see Avenir starting and my team is already showing some aggressive racing. I hope Monardez can keep his mountain jersey.
