4 in the Top 40 is great. None in the Top 25 less so.  |

Pleased with Kono and Mandri attacking - Mandri could well salvage this race with a top 10, though it would take some luck on the next stage.
I think he's earned a bit of training at the end of the year

Yay Ben Nasser! Too bad we couldn't get the stage win, but can't complain really, this is good enough.

It`s good to see that some of these short climbs without any difficulty before play out quite well.
Haven`t expected these gaps here.
Congrats to Efimkin. He seems to be the bet puncheur in this division giving Cisco lots of important points.

Well, that went horrible wrong for Lloyd.. Failing a Top-10 here ain't good enough. And thanks to Gerrans losing minutes the day before, the depth didnt play out too well either..
Congrats Cisco!

The first bad day of Mehr-Wenige ends up losing 6 places so the race goes from optimal to not very good .. Still I have to be particularly pleased with Cardoso ...
The victory ends up going to my favorite, congratulations Pelli

Thanks, guys.
Efimkin seems to have peaked for the best possible race! Pleased to see some gaps as well, even though I feel sorry for Ginanni and the others who got caught inside the main field.
Now I'm just praying that nothing bad happens tomorrow...

Very happy for Cisco, a team that somehow really grew on me through Pozzo's loan deal

Mandri, once again outdoing himself. All money in the off season is going on his hill stat 
Congrats, Pelli. A dominant performance by Efimkin so far, in the perfect race for the team.

Interesting how Efimkin is proving really consistent here, whilst Ginanni is really sucking.
It is a really strong field for a C1 7 stage race, but Efimkin has made it work out with really well timed sprints.

Congrat's Pelli. Davis losing the points jersey by 1 point, that's unfortunate. And Rasmussen scored a point for Oz in a sprint. Wow. |

Well, don't know what to say: Rasmussen is a beast
Should have done better overall, i fear. Gerrans or Jiao were quite disappointing in the end, a third rider in Top-20 would have been important. Now it's something about 10pprd i guess.
Thanks for the reports, SN! Great as always.

Success!
Great to have this goal checked. It also builds perfectly towards my Asian Tour goal, which I believe should be achievable too. That's hopefully 2/5 at least, which is very relieving considering that a top 5 at Vancouver will be close to impossible and winning Japan Cup will be difficult.
Great reporting, SN!

Wow, Efimkin is really on a top now, wondering how long it will lasts!
Tamayo Martinez has over-exceeded any expectations for this race, surely! Winning the youth jersey and finishing 6th in GC was close to an impossible dream for us, but luckily he made it, and with that effort, we are still within distance to teams like Evian and Meiji. Very important points indeed! |

The race had everything to be a success for the team, was not yet fully'm quite satisfied with what we achieved ... Van Loocke demonstrated this last stage that is capable of fighting for the victory of stages since these are not too hard ...
Turned out to be a good race for us ...

Really pleased with the 3 stage wins, and Davis over performing in the hillls to get a top 10. Congrats to Efimkin and thanks to SN for the great reporting. |

3rd overall is pretty much what I could have hoped for before the race. Got a gazillion fourth places which is OK, but would be fun to win a little more |
