Hi, this is a story about the chinese team called Champion System and I'm using the NRWR2012 database. Oh, and I also created young riders of my country and put them in the team.
The Leaders
Marco Cunha
One of the best sprinters of Portugal and Europe. He was a promishing sprinter in the past, having won the Volta a Portugal do Futuro, and now he wants to regain his career, beating the best sprinters in the world. That is his objective. He will be one of our leaders of the team.
Alberto Contador
A 3-week stage race specialist, he's definitely our leader of the team. He is one of three riders (including Quintana) who were hired by us. Contador, absolved by TAS, has one only objective and you know what.
The Sprinters
Anuar Manan
He is the toughest sprinter and one of the best in Asia. (If you said Australia is from Asia, you're wrong.) Manan is young but very talented and he wants to prove the sprinters that he can win something like beating them.
Jaan Kirsipuu
I thought he retired for good. This old man wants to finish his career with a win. Despite being 43 years old, Kirsipuu still has some sprinter habilities and he may be a good help for Manan for a sprint finish.
The Climbers
Nairo Quintana Rojas
Sacked by Movistar, Quintana was closed to return to the spanish team, but they rejected. So it was my chance to hire him and he accepted. A climbing specialist, Quintana is also one of the youngest riders of the team, but he knows how to win the one-week stage races.
Cameron Wurf
Wurf's dream was cycling. Well, the australian sees his oportunity as he is going show the world what he's made of. His objective is to help the leaders and winning the Australian Championship.
Alexander Kolobnev
Classics Specialist and a former Russian Champion, Kolobnev returns to cycling on our team, after the Tour de France where he accused doping. The Russian wants to be in shape for La Semaine des Ardennes, so he won't disappoint us.
The Youngsters
Pedro Paulinho
Remember that Sergio Paulinho was one of Contador's best friend? Well, the Spaniard will see Sergio's brother Pedro in action. Pedro is one of the fastest sprinters in the U23 in Portugal and he doesn't want to let his brother down by showing his sprinting skills and he's also a time-trial and cobble expert.
António Carvalho
Another sprinter from Portugal and he was Paulinho's teammate in the past. Carvalho showed his sprinting skills at the Volta a Portugal last year, finishing third in the first stage. Like Paulinho, he wants to be one of the most promishing riders of the season.

Guys, I didn't export the results neither taking screenshot because a problem shut my computer down, after I finished the race. So I tell what happened in the race: I put two of my team in the breakaway (Cameron Wurf and Aaron Kemps) then I tried to put William Clarke in front, but it was too late. GreenEdge should be working but they let them go. So it was a good chance for me. Then 8km to go, Wurf attacked and never got caught. Kemps cracks on the final mountain. The peloton was over 12 minutes behind the breakaway before Wurf's attack. Last Km to go, Wurf rested but had a minute in front of the 2nd Group (Adam Hansen, Steele von Hoff, Timothy Roe, Hilton Clarke, Graeme Brown and Dean Windsor). He raised his hands, points his fingers to the sky as he crosses the line as the NEW AUSSIE CHAMPION. Von Hoff takes 2nd and Hansen gets 3rd behind Brown, while Kemps and William Clarke stayed in the top 10 (8th and 9th).

Today is almost flat, with a mountain section at the beginning. So let's hope for another win today. Also, before the start of the race, a minute of silence for Marco Pantani on his 7th anniversary of his death.
A minute of silence for the Italian legend
So many attempts for a breakaway, only three riders escape and made it perfectly while the peloton let them go.
Breakaway of the day
The escapees were 8'30 in front of the peloton and I decided to put my team to work for the final sprint for Manan.
But then...
Dominik Nerz and Marco Marzano attacked and that was worse for me. Fortunatelly, they got caught by other teams like Miche and Colnago.
The escapees were still in front.
Then 8km to go, I decided to increase the rhythm and preparing the sprint for our sprinter.
The Champion System's train
Because of that, the escapees knew that their chance was over. So they decided to give up the victory and let it for the fastest men in the peloton.
No chance for the escapees
Cameron Wurf, wearing the Aussie champion jersey, increase his rhythm for Gardeyn launching the sprint for Manan. And the Belgian started sprinting.
Gardeyn sprints to Manan
And there goes the Malaysian, sprinting like a mad man!
Manan sprints away
And what an incredible speed by the youngster
Could this be his 1st win of the season?
It is! Anuar Manan gets his 1st international win of his career, his 1st win of the season and 4th of our team (includes team classification). What a work by our team and what a win for the Malaysian.
