With the help of Joanito85, I am going to release this DB soon.
Joanito85 passed me some time ago a .cdb file with the 2015 teams updated. He told me that I could see it and, if I liked it, I could upload and post it here.
The problem was that the stats were completely awful. After a huge work in my factory (), I have edited the main stats. The list is here (yes, he can discuss them to help me improving them):
82 - Alejandro Valverde, Daniel Martin, Michal Kwiatkowski, Simon Gerrans, Philippe Gilbert
81 - Joaquim RodrÃguez, Bauke Mollema
80 - Vincenzo Nibali, Greg Van Avermaet
79 - Rigoberto Urán, Rui Costa, Carlos Betancur, Jelle Vanendert, Peter Sagan
78 - Roman Kreuziger, Sergio Henao, Simon Spilak, Robert Gesink, Daniel Moreno, Zdenek Stybar, Fabian Cancellara, Michael Albasini
TIME TRIAL
83 - Tony Martin
81 - Bradley Wiggins
80 - Tom Dumoulin, Fabian Cancellara
79 - Taylor Phinney, Adriano Malori
78 - Chris Froome, Alex Dowsett
77 - Alberto Contador, Tejay Van Garderen, Rohan Dennis, Geraint Thomas, Vasili Kiryienka, Sylvain Chavanel, Jonathan Castroviejo, Jan Barta
COBBLE
83 - Fabian Cancellara
82 - Sep Vanmarcke
80 - Peter Sagan, Zdenek Stybar, Niki Terpstra, Tom Boonen
78 - Greg Van Avermaet, Geraint Thomas, Lars Boom, John Degenkolb, Alexandr Kristoff, Bradley Wiggins, Ian Stannard, Stijn Vandenbergh
77 - Jurgen Roelandts, Johan Vansummeren
SPRINT
82 - Alexandr Kristoff, Mark Cavendish, Marcel Kittel
When I release thsi DB, graphics will be in a Download, stages will be in another Download, the equipment in another Download and the .cdb in another Download.
MO:
Why is Pinot so much better than Valv, Purito and Aru? Is a good Tour really enough? Same for Majka.
HI:
Rodriguez, one point lower than all those guys? Well, I may be the only one (and hopefully I'm not) but it just doesn't look right to me. Same for Mollema on its same level, damn, do you really think that the Dutch can keep up with a Purito in shape?
Also, do you really watch cycling? Well then you can't put Gerrans on the same level as Valverde and 1 higher than Purito...
Laughed hard at Van Avermaet, Cancellara and Albasini as well...
TT:
This looks better already but still Martin shouldn't have 2 points on Wiggins for obvious reasons.
COB:
Vanmarcke and Cance should be on the same level, the latter hasn't proved to deserve 1 point more than the Lotto rider in the last 2 years. Also Sagan and Stybar don't deserve to be on the same level as the two other Etixx riders. Don't like the matrix here to be honest. There shouldn't be so wide stat gaps. Why there's not an 81 level and a 79? Boonen and Terpstra should be on there, while I'd put Van Avermaet, Sagan, Stybar and arguably Degenkolb on 79.
SP:
Wait, you seriously put Kristoff on the same level as Cav and Kittel
NO, HELL NO! GO AWAY!
Well Mars, now tell me how could this guy compete, in a flat sprint, against those 2 if all of them are in a good shape...
I thought to myself: "can this get any worse?". Well I was mistaken as it looks. You decided to give those 3 guys a gap of 2 points on............. Andrè Greipel! Come on, why did you f*k it up so clearly?
Why there is not an 81 level? And why there is not an 83 level where I'd put the first two (or only Kittel)?
OK! Let's go ahead. Hmm... I see SAGAN? On the same level as GREIPEL? HAHAHAH Mars, that's quite a nice joke, clap clap. Sagan managed to get 2nd in thousand of sprints, and if you look carefully at the Tour de France and the other minor races you'd notice that he was beaten by everyone.
Now let's see, ha, Degenkolb one point lower than Demare and Bouhanni, would love to be angry at it but I've used up my bonus... Don't even want to argue about why Mezgec and Coquard are better sprinters than Matthews and Nizzolo.
But besides that, great work Mars, you've surely done a great work editing Joanito's stats!
I would really like it!
), I have edited the main stats. The list is here (yes, he can discuss them to help me improving them):
