Pretty surprised how selective that was. The early aggression paying off for the punchy riders. Congrats to KB.

Congrats to the winners!
A very disappointing final 2 stages from Conci to drop from GC contention to 5th and behind riders he should be finishing ahead of. Very odd selections on both the final stages.
We'll take the points and move on from this one! At least we picked up a few points 
Thanks for the great reports throughout

Congrats to the winners!
Finally we tried something! Did we get any great results from it? No, but we tried! Why wait til the last stage?

Thanks for another great report, alex, and congrats to lief for winning the final stage!
What a race this was for us! I had high hopes and quite some expectations pre-race and was even surpassed by quite a margin as we not only got the GC win and two stage wins, but also so much scoring from depth and classifications that we scored almost 250 points here. This could prove a decisive race in the title fight in the end.
And last but not least:

A better race than expected, not a bad way for Kmieliauskas to end the season

Wanted to see a bit more from Rodriguez throughout the race, but can't consider this anything but a (rare) overperformance. The TTT win wasn't that unexpected, but Choi finished higher in the GC than we had hoped for.
Thanks for the reports, Alex

Oh what a fumble from the Turtles! Not a surprise since we don't have hands.
What a cool display from Ekoi though in that final stage - think its been a remarkable season for them and have to really sing praises after I don't think many predicted them this high.

Great rides from Mager and Rumac to top 10 the stage means Kraftwerk secure an unexpected Teams win.
Habtemichael hung on for a better than expected 6th place in GC.
Congrats to kb for some impressive depth scoring.
Thanks to alex for the quality reports.
