The stage feedback screenshot also says "Stage de sprint"
Does that mean you can go on a sprint training camp as well?

That seems quite useless. It could be useful but only if turns on the flat would make a difference in the game, which they don't... |

Practising lead-out trains and getting your timings right to every meter Still I don't see much point in any of it. It's nice mini feature, and I'll load it once to see how it looks etc.

You're right, it might be useful in some way. Though a sprint train never goes the way you want it to, imo  |

My guess would be that it just increases the sprint stats for whoever goes there for 3 months.

What about "stage de vallons"? I think it's a downhill training camp. |

stupid google translate 
But I think it would be nice to see the stage before you will race them, I don't consider it as cheating. Real teams do that also irl. |

As long as other teams do it as well, yeah. But since other teams still don't go on training camp after 8 games, I'd doubt it.

I'd really like to recon stages, but I don't want any bonusses. But I guess that won't be possible, so I'll just skip the recon, bit. I've heard you can also train TTT, I hope that won't give you any bonus, because I could use TTT training. |

but in the game you don't need to 'know' the route, in real life thea have to know turns in front of the finish but in game you have no advantege when you know it... |

I guess that's probably not even the case. Maybe it just gives you the guarantee that no daily form on that stage is below 0.

Yeah, TTT training would be great. |

That could be possible.
It wouldn't make much sense, though. Knowing the route wouldn't stop a rider from having a bad day 
Cyanide, Cyanide, Cyanide, what a mystery to me  |

Sure.
One could argue that if you strategically choose the important mountain stages, it's slightly realistic as GC riders often focus on these stages and prepare themselves different, so bad days are less likely than on a random flat stage.
Very optimistic argumentation though
