I have certainly been one of the PT managers that is not as active as many others.
I do truly appreciate the reporters and hope that I convey that with my posts. Overall, I would echo the sentiment of a few PT managers. The criticism is certainly fair and I will think going forward about my involvement in the game.
It is a true credit to the game the number of users looking for teams and actively participating which is great to see.
As far as this race goes, Denifl really let us down relative to Suaza's performance. I suspect that this will be a race I look back upon at the end of the season and can see where the PT title slipped away. Denifl picking up that 2nd place in an unlikely stage really was a saving grace.
Alarcon has been absolutely phenomenal this year. A real joy to watch him upset many fot he more established names among stage racers.

Didn't see this debate before but likewise I apologise for a lack of posting. Admittedly little has been happening that I feel I can comment on but I have failed in not extending my gratitude to all of the reporters for the races they have done. So sorry and thankyou.
Good-ish race in the end with a stage win and a KOM jersey from quite a weak squad. Thanks for the reports SN.
Fun race to watch / follow, even though Kennaugh - as expected - had to withdraw.
A waste of race days for Schreurs really. Made no impact whatsoever. And the rest of the guys - except for Kennaugh and partly Van der Sande - barely did anything.
All 3 of my loaned out riders in one race, what a nice sight
Points for Demare! Not being used as a direct leadout and coming after a tough stage 2 helped him, I like that
More points for Demare! 8th for a second-to-last leadout is huge
4 points out of his wage is a good ratio, isn't it?
What a ride by Brajkovic for that stage win, Heineken surely belong to PT again.
Demare still hanging on of course, is another Champs possible?
Another point on stage 9
I don't even mind that Demare doesn't finish the race.
A nice TT win for Rothaus and a really deserved win for Alarcon who used the Vuelta win to carry momentum and motivation into this. Machado can't be too disappointed with second place although even that won't be enough for Prio.
