Agreed. The peloton refuses to chase an established breakaway and when a breakaway rider escapes from it, there's also no chase whatsoever. |

Its a consistent flaw in the game. If a break is staying clear, with 10-15km to go, a couple of riders with weaker sprint stats attack the break, and those with better sprint stats do nothing.

Whilst nowhere near the success of Wiggle's wild card. I am pleased with Red Bull's performance here.
Siutsou managing to sneak up into 7th place is a good job considering he is up there with some excellent Grand Tour riders and bodes well for his CT season which starts shortly in Langkawi.
Beppu also had his first race here and showed a willingness to get in a breakaway and showed himself well with a 4th place on the last stage.
Manarelli also looked up for a field sprint in the last two stages giving me hope where he is the main sprinter in some of my races later on in the season.
This was obviously a big race for Cafe du Columbia with Valverde, not sure how the points will work over these three clashing races Tirrano, Paris Nice and Volta. Appears to me like Cafe du Columbia and Lipton Iced Tea had good races, but Sony Ericsson are the winners of this round with 4th here, 4th in Paris Nice and the win in Tirrano. |

Great win there from Valeverde - achieves the goal of a Top 3.
A win here, 5th at Paris-Nice, and a 12th at T-A - I'm happy. |

Sadly this was my best GT so far. I had an expecation of Castaño around 6th so 11th obviously isn't good, and Bewley could've probably won a stage or 2 if we were good enough in the chase. He did win the green though. So that's decent...

Yeah, I'm really pleased with these three races. 4th here with Pedraza is a really nice suprise. The only thing that could have played out better was the sprints where Granjel Cabrera was nowhere. But you can't get everything.
