Also, Vauquelin actually doesn't need to wait until after avenir to open his palmares, I remember him winning a stage from the breakaway somewhere last season already 
Stage 3 of the Tour du Maroc, with the finish in Casablanca. I'll probably won't forget that ever 
On a side note: Karatsivis also has won a stage for us while on loan (and podiuming in another stage).
Back to the present (or avenir?): Not good to see Vauquelin losing so much time, but hopefully he'll be able to catch van Eetvelt in the TT and manage to get the GC top 5 in the end.

Pretty happy with having an active team on the mountainstage. 4th in the GC for now is alright. We need to keep trying to have a shot at a podium.

Good to see Carlos get his first win here! Really strong showing. 2 mountain stages left and only a few seconds behind on GC. Hopefully he can close the gap!
Nice to see Simmons racing well in our colours as well!

Really meh race for us. Page could've won stage 7 with better positioning, but I guess he was learning too much from Bol. A podium still is a decent result here, in particular with the slight uphill finish.
And Tiberi was just awful on stage 6, he'll need a great final mountain stage to still get a Top 10 out of this race.
Congrats to the winners, thanks for the reports.

Nice to see Gloag towards to the front of the race. I hope he can keep his Top 10 GC while also being a strong domestique for Krasts. |

Great stage from Hayter. He has done everything asked for so far. Just need to hold it together on the last stage, but as last year has shown, it's not over yet!
Congrats to UBS - Sauber and thanks for the report!

Karatsivis have a lot of work to do now... Let's hope for a fun and aggressive final stage. All or nothing!

Great job by Blum to take the win here! I thought the hills would be hard enough to rule out the pure TTers, but good to see Elia still beating the GC guys. Only bad thing is that he rides for UBS, not for Jura 
Both Tiberi and Skivild with a solid TT as well, as both are in the GC Top 10 now. Hopefully at least one of them - on paper it should be Tiberi - will hold onto his position or even improve it!

Carlos has been doing great. Mountain stage to finish. Maybe he can get enough time to take the GC win over Hayter. Will be tough though!

Stage win and wearing the yellow jersey sounds like a perfect race for Kooij

Congrats to Abhi for the win, Hayter hangs tough in the mountains. Thanks to Lief for the reports. Love the discussion approach.
Feels like our strategy wasn't quite right, great that Simmons finished only 22 seconds down but maybe he should have been going hard on the front to put on some pressure on Hayter rather than following in the wheels.

Congrats to Abhi for the win. I'm happy that one of our alumnis in Selimovic did well in this stage.

Cool and fun race that was exciting for the GC battle to the very end. Congratulations, Abhi! Hayter did well to defend and hold on. Thank you a lot to lief for doing the reports. Have enjoyed them! |

Congrats to Abhi and somehow also to Nemo (i dont know how but he was part of the team at least  ) for the win here. In the end really close between the top 3, nice to see.
We were also part of this race, thats it. AT least with Heinrich & Stalberg we could be seen at the front at the early stages but when it goes uphill thats nothing for us (yet).
Thanks for the reporting!

3rd in back to back years with plapp and krasts is good enough. Might be a bit of a wait until we are back with a new gc hope here.
A Big Thank You To All MG Reporters! |

Thanks for the reports to lief and congrats to Abhi for the win! Let's just hope that's not how it will work out in all the Hayter-Vauquelin match-ups in the next years
Speaking of: 5th in GC was what we could expect, add two handful of stage results and it's been a good Avenir for us in total.

A top 10 for Glanbia is a big breakthrough in our development
Thanks for all the reports

Was looking like Carlos Canal's attacking spirit was going to get him his first professional win. But, alas, not quite meant to be. Still awesome to see him race like this (just as his stats suggest he should). And he is only going to get stronger. One day, our breakaway artist will collect his reward for having the courage to defy logic.
Thanks for the reports!

Nice to see Svestad make moves, hopefully a sign of what to come once he maxes and becomes a breakaway force to be reckonned with!
Congrats to Abhi on a nice win for Hayter and thanks for the reports!

2nd overall for Carlos and a win for him is great. The Spark team showed great fight with Simmons taking a win as well and the whole team competing.
Hayter was great and deserved the win. Congrats to him and his team!
