Vesely with a master disasterclass. What a way for him to wind down his career

Nice win for Demare, congrats Lief!
Shocking again from a lot of the other bigger sprinters and GC leader Losch - feeling for Kraftwerk after these two dismal stages from Zabel.
On to the hilly terrain now, here’s hoping Bagioli is up for it and can snag us a good result here.
Thanks for the report!

Had hoped Ahlstrand could take yellow or do something in the points classification on the first stage, but fourteenth and fifth is hardly anything to celebrate

I was expecting this race as another possibility to dig some more points in the battle against relegation. So far it's been JEWA's race, which is impressive, congrats Blasing. Just try not to win more please. Deal?

Better stage from Haller on S2 than on S1, looked good for a moment but he couldn't hold it.
Congrats to the winners and thanks to Abhi for picking up S1 and S2.

What the absolute fuck was Bagioli doing sitting at the back of the group? Jesus Christ. Caught in stupid splits due to terrible positioning and pays the price. Gonna need a big turn around now on the next stage, literal worst case scenario with the stage winner also being u25 eligible in terms of point scoring. Congrats Cunego, a good win.
Thank you for the report.

I really like what I've seen from Ackermann so far.
5th in GC and 3rd in green jersey is a nice start so far.
Also Kaislavuo fighting for the climbers jersey is a nice plus.
Really exciting for us to follow the next stages!
Thanks alot for the great report UU!  |

Powless nowhere to be seen, could easily be a disasterclass here. All we can do now is spectate our promotion rivals. Thanks for the reports.

A scare for Kinoshita there but finishing in the front group is all that mattered.

ngl forgot we were here, so seeing Meurisse pop up in the report was a nice surprise.
Hopefully he can work some more magic on the last few stages so that we don't get leapfrogged in the top 10 race!
thanks for the reports!

Thanks for the reports, Abhi and Ulrich, and congrats to the stage winners so far! It's been a silent race for us with no top 10 for now, but APP on the right side of the split keeps alive the GC (and win?) hopes.

If there's any consolation, Evangelos leading the KOM gives us some ranking points.
But we are sadly riding the Disasterclass Express

Solid riding from Benoot, but nothing special. In line to get some decent points from this race if the last stage doesn't throw up some surprises.
Congrats to the winners and thanks for the reports Ulrich!

Kinoshita at a small gap doesn't look good. But with Vosekalns at the same small gap and tomorrow's stage looking more difficult we might have a second opportunity. We'll salvage something from this race.

Bah...Ackermann destroyed our chance for a good GC placement here.
Now it will only be minor points, as tomorrows stage isn't in Ackermanns favor either.
Happy Eriksson got some KOM points at least.
Thank you Ulrich for the terrific reports! |

Lack of hill really the difference here for Powless sadly. Atleast he wasn't totally invisible today. Congrats to the winner and thank you for the report.

Can't believe Azman looked that strong on stage 3 only to drop 2 mins on stage 4

So it looks like the route plays out as a route for hybrids and not for punchers which sucks. This stage especially looked like it would be a stage for riders like Stannard, Bagioli and Meurisse but sadly not the case which effectively ends our season. Yudha going for the KOM is great, and he can maybe take that classification tomorrow if we’re lucky which will be a decent source of points, but Jesus it really sucks to hope for a win in Emilia to be any chance of going up after this disasterclass.
Congrats on the win Ulrich, love Sosa as a rider so happy to see him doing so well after the investment. Thanks for the report also.
