In my game I am playing a career as FDJ using the pcm expansion pack. I started playing Paris-Nice and on stage one, Johan Tschopp crashed and the game told me he was taking a while getting back on his feet. Despite crashing with 35km to go he still finished last, 8 minutes off the group. I thought nothing of it, but the next stage, he finished last 14 minutes off the pace, with no crash, both these stages were won by Kittel and Bouhanni respectively (with the other finishing second on both stages), I figured this was due to an injury, so I checked the infirmary, but it said there was nothing wrong with him (his name wasn't on the list). Why?
I will post again after the next stage
and while I'm asking a question, what does random rider potentials do? and can you use it mid-career?
Thanks in Advance

It's his first race of the season and I think he is targeting the tour, but many riders are in a simlar position, including Kittel, Pinot, Nibali and Griepel who are all riding well.
The next stage was hilly, Won by Gilbert at the head of a 21 man group, Betancur followed in 1 minute late at the head of the main peloton, followed by Bouhanni, despite the stage being hilly.
Tschopp wasn't so bad this stage, he was 124th, 3 and a half minutes back, with a 182-man field but he still under-performed, with 73 hill, he should have been in the peloton (with Bouhanni) or maybe even in the first group with Ventoso (71 hill), Oss (70 hill), Lobato (71 hill), Bennet and Roy (72 hill, who despite being in the breakaway still made the first group, although being in the break may have helped them) and 8 riders with 74 hill.
