MAL punted, which I have not seen a ton of in my sims. Romo about 7th is to be expected and Zwiehoff sneaking into the top 25 is a nice little score. Benoot winning is ultimately a positive thing for us as that's a lot of points leaving the division, thanks a lot for the report and congrats to Booker!

Guerreiro unfortunately not on his best day I guess. The early attack by MAL likely made it a harder race than needed for him on the hills. Was hoping to be 5-10 spots higher but it's at least a bit of scoring. Hermans though rather low somehow, guess he was dropped early and didn't care afterwards.
Regarding the race, cool to see Benoot win this here. Though not sure what MAL was thinking with his move and neither Herklotz played it smart afterwards.
Became a big opportunity for the 2nd row, even more with Higuita also showing weakness.
Thanks for the report. |

Happy with the performance and result by Novak. Can't ask for more, for sure, and being active following moves was enjoyable to read. Thank you for a brilliant report, Mre!
Also, huge congratulations to the PCT teams podiuming here! Benoot beating Herklotz in such a finish, is absolutely crazy  |

Truly incredible report and race - always fun to see the best in the world go after it like that. For a while I thought MAL might actually make a Pogacar like move stick and find his way to the finish line.
Very cool and congratulations for that Benoot win!

lol 
Thanks for the incredible report Mre, that was amazing to read!
We were just here for the vibes, but it can only be a good sign for Benoot’s season to come that he’s done so well in his few race days so far. Looking forward to the hopeful reincarnation of Jerome Baugnies this season…just need to actually bank some of these points!

Herklotz lack of support probably costed him here, with our domestiques being spent early in the chase for Lopez and Herklotz having to work on his own as well. Still, 2nd is a respectable result and his support will be much better in his other races this season.
Thanks for the report and congrats to Duvel!

10th is about what I expected from Primozic. Good to see he is a factor in these races even just by following the favourites for as long as possible. The Ardenne classics might be harder though with a deeper field probably. Also a nice ride by Zumer
Congrats Booker and thanks to Mre for another nice report

It's been a really great report and a fun race (although this fun might be spoiled for some managers ...)! We were mostly anonymous, but both Gregoire and Martinez in the top 50 at least give some hope for our next participation here (whenever that might be).
And congrats to Booker! It's really nice that you (as well as the other wildcards in the other races) take all those precious points away from everyone else ...

I enjoyed Mulubrhan at least giving it a go, but we were only here for the guaranteed points from finishing so just being mentioned is a success 
Congratulations to Booker and thanks for the report Mre! |

Really cool to see Conca active even though he collapsed completely. He should get some more chances in shorter races this season. Congrats Booker on stealing this from the PT teams and thanks for the report Mre! |

Didn't expect much from the triple clash and we manage to grab 6th here with Schultz! More than enough for him to repay the faith we had in him this year already!
A race of surprises all round and its good to see an unexpected winner as well, congrats to Benoot and Booker for the win here
