Simoni won the 2008 Giro last night during my career mode. He won by a 15 minute margin over Di Luca who came in second place. Ricco was third with 20 minutes back. Simoni won all six mountain stages plus the mountain TT. I had Gusev and Nicacio as my GC for Team Slipstream.
I have never seen the AI win with such a large margin in a grand tour. Have any of you guys? |

Well I just played the 2007 Giro in my game with CSC. I won the Giro by 23 seconds from Di Luca with Sastre...third place Simoni was 46 minutes back!
Having said that, thats only because Cunego, Savoldelli and Contador all retired during the race, and Simoni crashed near the end of a hill stage and lost nearly 20 minutes...and I also withdrew Fanck Schleck, who I'm sure could have taken 3rd, but I didn't see all the withdrawls coming and I needed him fresh for the Tour |

I feel your rage...he's dominating the TDF I'm playing just now...just as well the sponsors only want a top 3 place, Schlecks 15 minutes back in 3rd, and its only stage 14!
I hate it when real life dopers do well in my game! :x |

The quicker u change over the less u will miss your old one
Starting over was a reason I wasn't gonna get teh Spain DB but I did and I gotta tell its well worth the hassle/fun of starting a new career. |
