Saber is the biggest troll in MG 
Turning up for only the first and last stage and showing how good he can be, while not caring at all in between 
On a more serious note. I started getting a bit of hope when I saw we were actually involved in the chase. And when we provide a proper leadout and position Saber delivers a good result. I just hope we could do it a bit more often. I didn't expect to jump from 10th all the way to 2nd, but the gaps were small enough for it to be possible 
So in the end this turns out to be a big scoring race for Saber. Groselj and Siric managed to get some minor GC and U25 points. And we somehow managed to hold the team classification, despite the split on the final stage. I'm pretty sure this is a first ever team classification win for me 
So in the end it was a hugely successful race for us
Thanks for doing these reports Ulrich and congrats to LLS on the overall win with Jakobsen

COME ON 
Despite the Yellow Jersey curse, the AI finally spits out a worthy stage Top 3 but we hold on for a famous victory!
It's the first GC win we've had since our CT promotion season in 2019 and it's a sweet one as it's also the first GC won by one of our riders we've fully developed from their start in the game.
Congrats and commiserations to all the other teams out there who didn't get the luck of the draw 
Thank you for the reports and long may our success continue!

You know you're screwed when your rider is the first to sprint. On the other hand, a fourth place on the stage is not the most terrible result, and with 2 top-10 results this is the best sprinting race so far from Manninen. Congratulations to Indosat on the stage and to Aramco on the GC. You can have Los Pollos' place in PCT next season
Thanks for the the clear and nicely written reports again, Ulrich!

I'm grateful that after consistently joining in the sprints all the race he goes and takes the last day off so he can miss the top 10 overall again.
The lottery gives and takes away but this is at the very least, consistently shit for my team!

Jeeeeeeeeeeeeeeez what's up with Vesely. The previous days he at least made an effort, but let's end on a low. Ugh.
Thanks Ulrich, congrats LLS!

Nice result for my team. Abraha, McEvoy, and Korošec did a nice job for Sellig who finished in all stages or 6th or in 7th place. Nice performance compare to some other stage races where we got to almost no points.
Thanks for the preview and reports Ulrich.
