Three bananas for our third victory here! Bang! That should make us the tied record holder with Jack Wolfskin/Project 1t4i, if I'm not totally mistaken. Great stuff. It seems, that my team only performs at the end of the season.. And now go hunting for #4 next year? We will see.
Thanks for the report, Aquarius! Things didn't look too good in the first half of the race, but that's some kind of tradition for our team here. Definitely not the first time, that we claimed the TTT by an outstanding second sector. Pretty sure our depth paid off properly (with all riders 77+ here), as we could compensate someone like Hepburn being dropped quite early (as it seems).
Quite a bummer for Porto - Prio though, which is a shame. Such a lineup deserves a podium at least (so 2 or 3  just kidding) and it may well hurt the team at the end of the season..

Thanks for the report.
Must admit that I can`t really be happy with 5th here. It was the absolute minimum and I haven`t expected to finish any worse than 5th anyway in this field.
But it once again shows that my TTT teams rarely do better than expected. Was hoping to land ahead of Tinkoff at least while Porto and Jayco only would have been possible on a great day anyway.
Gazelle here showing that despite being an mainly flat event the short climb is enough to favour a stage racer team as you can gain big seconds there.
Congrats to tsmoha for the well deserved win! |

Cool to see that you enjoyed my list. I guess i deserve a 44 second time bonification for that. Not that it would change a thing but it would make my team look like a solid ct team at least.
Guess i have to draw the right consequences from this and fire my tt leader. Goodbye Marco Mathis!
Good to see Jayco win this one again. And despite finishing last of all 22 competing teams Strava could be considered a winner of this race as none of their relegation rivals scored more than expected.
A Big Thank You To All MG Reporters! |

Good result - added another decent chunk onto our lead over Strava, and Prio and Tinkoff didn't do as well as would have been expected. Leaves us in a situation where we could potentially catch Prio still, as well as keeping Tinkoff and Strava a decent distance behind (roughly 120 and 175 points behind respectively). Thanks for the report Aquarius! |

8th place against the PT teams should at least give a morale boost towards the ever so important final races where small miracles are needed.

You would have needed like 200 points then. |

I was of the opinion that he'd earned his team a 306 second bonus with the list! Apparently not...

I barely read any MG reports this year, so i actually know shit about what is going on in the game this year, but i know one thing...Jayco (or simply tsmohas team whatever the name it was in different years) are the kings of TTs, so i came here to congratulate, with our past TT rivality in mind. Metinvest would crush you though.... (just kidding, i would fail miserably).
Kuddos also to the reporter, nice job!

Awesome just to see the jerseys on home soil, so a top 10 is truly awesome! Thanks to Aquarius for the reports. Congrats to Jayco!

Cool to see the Tinkoff boys on the podium, now it's time to unleash the Trofimov!

Congrats, tsmoha, on this fetiche win of yours. Nice to see your team having a decent end of the season after all the drame you've faced.
This result is a bulgy pile of crap on our aspirations. I knew it would be difficult to gain a lot of points to Tinkoff, but finishing outside the podium is heart breaking. Feeling really anxious now.
It's a good thing you're here, Avin. When you leave please take Zmorka with you.

Thank you for such an in-depth report!
That went well. 18th is better than what I could possibly have expected. Big congratulations to tsmoha on the win, and also to Tinkov for the podium, which gives them a great start in the fight to avoid relegation. Trofimov performing to his stats on the hills now, and they should be safe, I think. |

Disappointing. Two places lower than we should've finished. At least our opposition didn't surprise either.
Congrats Jayco! Enjoy the win.

A bit dissapointing but maybe had to high ambitions when I hoped for a top 10. We lack that real star TT but think we had decent depth with 5 guys +75 TT, compared to f.ex. Festina who beat us who had only two guys +75.
Anyway no big pts losses, and thanks for the report! |
