Nice to see Holzer being active when Larsen doesn't care about these flat stages  Now we're 2nd and 3rd (tied) in KoM, 4th in points, 10th in GC - let's see what we can do from here
Congrats to King Power again, rocking all terrains here

Another top 10 for De Lie. Impressive to see him mix it up there in and around the top 10. Feels very encouraging for next season, thinking he does this with 76 sprint stat.
Congratulations to Bilex! Feels like a very good start to the season for King Power, this being a surprise win, together with epilogue and prologue brilliancies! |

4th is a fine result for Rodenberg. He was at the front very early, but launched very late, so it was kind of an interesting situation. I hope for more, but it could have been worse if he faded entirely. A few points is better than nothing.
Thanks for the report!

First of all thanks to Abhi for all the nice reports!
Verstrynge is our (only) man to look for here, let's hope he'll be able to defend the KoM lead one last stage!
Congrats to all the stage winners so far!

Remco looks to be in a great position going into the final stage. Winning here would be awesome.
So frustrating that Sossa lost so much time in the preivous stages given he was part of the main group today, while Frigo and Vader are now out of the GC as well.

Hmmm. Not sure how to feel about this now. It looked almost like Aranburu was in the perfect position but didn't want to attack to leap around Sulvaran in the final. Thought we had a chance at the stage there.
It's tough now. With how unselective things have been, I'm not completely opposed to allowing Sulvaran to ride for himself now given his high position and the fact that tomorrow's stage is short, but it's a pretty precarious situation. If tomorrow ends up being selective, I fear Aranburu will stay with him and we'll miss out on everything. Right now we're in a good spot with the full team. I'll just hope for the best.

Nice to see us giving the BotD a try. De Plus worryingly far back. A top 10 seems increasingly difficult, but he also seems to underperform right now.

New decent result for Gesbert and we’re doing well as a team with 3 riders in the top 20 in the GC, even if it looks like a top top result will be difficult.

This really isn't Valter's race, and also very far from it. Disappointing, I must admit. Our only hope to salvage something here, seems to be Cristophersen hang on to a GC top 10, if there are small gaps/no gaps again. Alternatively Valter having a brilliant day on a final stage that gives a lot of time gaps. Judging by the race so far, neither look likely  |

Not the smartest riding by Schmid here, but we're here to learn - I guess he has seen now that he isn't quite strong enough yet to launch that early.
Still, he's move up one spot in GC, and hopefully he can get another decent result tomorrow. Paez also still up there is nice, guess I can be hopeful for the two of them to be relatively productive this season. After all, both puncheurs already have their first win in the bag

Solid race by Vincent to finish 15th in GC. I can't complain about that. I was hoping for either a few more depth points or to get something from the sprints. Rajovic might struggle this season since I didn't plan for a 78 sprinter to get trains like this. In the end a few points less than I was hoping for, but this was never going to be a high scoring race for us.
Congrats to King Power on the overall victory and thanks to Abhi for the stellar reporting
