I'm still confident with borrego.. I fear I can't compete for the GC, let's see if i can go for a stagewin... Anw i think the 4th place is gone, bloedzak is too strong for me... But at least you end 5th minimum and another year in 1:1! yeah, it is possible, have to pay attention to Tours.C.C, but I can end in 5th pos... not bad

Damn. Van Den Brandt injured once in his carreer, this season already his second injury and again for 3 weeks :/ He was my second best mountaincyclist, but he won't stay if he looses 50% of the training in one season... It seems you have a lot of injuries. Just bad luck or does your cyclists have bad bravery? Bravery doesn't matter if he gets injured during training But it's indeed the question: Was I lucky he only got injured once he previous seasons, or am I just unlucky this season?

I have never had a lot of injuries, but to be honest, I hardly ever buy cyclists with bad bravery. My grand tour teams are always with riders who have both steering and bravery min. 10. The injury I had at the first race of the tour was my second in a grand tour ever.
And I didn't know that bravery had nothing to do with training. Is that completely random then?

You are fighting with Bloedzak for fouth place, Tours C.C. will finish sixth, and all others fight for the last two spots for next year!

There is a hidden "injury proneness" ranking. It gets checked every time you fall and every time a rider is trained on sunday. So a rider who nevery falls due to a 20 balance with a crappy injury ranking will still have a high chance of Sunday training injuries, even though his injury ranking will never be checked due to falling in a race.

Grazie for the explanation! I knew about the hidden injury proneness and that this with the bravery decides if somebody got injured, but not that this is the only factor at the training. Thanks. Then I guess most of my riders luckily have a low proneness.

Seems he got pretty nice hill/sprint skill seen his victories this season My GC ambitions are gone btw Flat / hill / sprint and also a little downhill and tt. No mountain at all, but since those stages are for Bloedzak and EGV, I decided to take him along and I know already have won more stages than it both other grand tours al together . Yes, I saw. Why did yoy put Borrego on save fitness? That is killing for GC, unless you go for a stage win with him. My GC riderr Cozijnsen is still in good position, but in the end Guiggi will win . But we can see first signs after stage 6.

As I said before, Borrego won't be the man for GC It should be Ravazzi, but he ended together with Borrego without saving fitness Well, I'm just going to try to get a 3th victory this Vuelta Never thought I even could get 10 victories in first division, so everything that comes now is bonus

So sad, that we are big competitors right now and one of us probably doesn't survive this year.

If you go for the GC it's very normal you go for 60% the first race of the week, because now it costs you 10 fitness, but in the next 3 races you have 3x4 fitness extra and can spend 4 extra fitness. So for the GC that is much better, also because the big differences will be made in the last stage of the week. The 10% less effort today costs him probably only 1 minute.

Also true But I don't have enough points to put everybody on save fitness Anyway, I don't really care because the competition is way too strong for my mountaincyclists. They all lack TT as well. Next season (maybe too late) they will get training on TT, but otherwise they would get some useless training once their TT skill is fine
