thx guys yep strange tactics indeed... also bregge or cozjinsen i expected to attack tomorrow... so with lavoie, van S and wielock i will add ponzetto (venasco is for GCi guess) Ponzetto is only a candidate if Cirao is training him in hill since he bougt him.

well it looks like Lavoie wasn't strong enough... btw i can't understand how he lost all his 1'20" gap in the attack point 7 when it looks he didn't attack when in my tactics it's clearly selected as attack point but the race report says " he can't follow his group 3" and instead it reports the attack of my younger Lamers ... he didn't lost any terrain from Zevenbergen exept in that grimp... it's possible we have some problems with multiple team attacks in the same point? it's not the first time i had this impression... but probably Z was stronger and i'm complaining for nothing..

No, without the Fall Bregge also wasn't going to win! Congratulations! I was a little late for the predictions. I don't really understand the tactics of everyone. The top favourite for tomorrows race was Zevenbergen in my opinion, but he made a small attack. Now I guess the main favourites will be Lavoie, Wielock and Van Steenbergen. Looks like the tactic with Zevenbergen still worked out pretty well in the end! Nice win for Team Bloedzak and looking very good for the GC. I hoped Grazziotin would end a bit closer today, but as usual he lets me down . Third in the GC now, hope he can hang on to that in the TT, but it will be difficult. Franconia made a mistake today? Not sure what happened to Van Steenberghe, but I have the feeling he forgot to up his effort %. Pressure getting to him, haha . I see that our dear friend Masek is already at 100% again, that bastard will be there again to destroy us all. Looking forward to the races later this week, should have some contenders there!

Yes, it appears to be the right tactic and I was wrong! Although I never thougt that Zevenbergen could do ith with 9% less fitness. I guess that difference isn't that important as I thought. For the yellow it will be excited. It also depends a little I guess who goes in full and who doesn't.

Really no clue who is going to win today. A lot of great riders at the start. Every team has a contender.

I could have used Brinks today.. Now, I do not have a real contender.
Still, I am very excited about the way things are developing in the Vuelta a Castilla y Leon. Great win for Zevenbergen. Curious about the results of the time trial tomorrow. I don't have any idea about the strenghts of the other riders at the top of the general classification. I hope I can fight for a day win again, but I am not sure at all..

Streber, Granato and the others for the 3rd place... Where do you see Borrego? It looks every day that it is a race itself to see who can put his team up last.. I also have no clue where Eboese trained Malton in since he bought him. But I will give it a go too (after only 8 teams who have their line up ready): Main favourites: Malton and Streber (and Borrego if he really participates) Outsiders: Mace, Granato, the rider that Schizm plays, Brueren, Dokkum

Well, at least it is clear who is the best mangager of the game. I have seen the stats of Dokkum. He ain't better than the other riders in the top 10 participating. Also his mood isn't better. For some reason it seems that riders, who put on the Franconia shirt, are performing 10% better than other riders. That can only be because Franconia is simply a better manager who understands the game the best. It is the only explanation I have why Dokkum wins today.

Happy to see that youngster Labadie is able to follow the big guys quite well, despite his fall on the flat.
Besides that, congrats to Franconia!

oh that's bad luck for me.. an early flat fall with 16 balance! it costs about 4' to the leaders for Granato... after that he made a good comeback with Malton and Borrego on his sight but the W was gone... yeah AB i guess sometimes the best manager is the one who has better luck... yeah, today i'm a little pissed off... that fall ruined all my plans...

I had the same with Brueren. After his fall, he was dead last. Even after the rest of the peloton who did not attack at point 1. But that can happen. at times. Brueren also has balance > 12. Dokkum never won a single race with the Lions. First race for Franconia and bingo. That I just don't get.

That can only be because Franconia is simply a better manager who understands the game the best. It is the only explanation I have why Dokkum wins today. True this. I was shocked to see Dokkum win today. When he bought him last week I was pretty sure he overpaid, because his stats were not THAT impressive and he never did anything special for Lions. One race @ 100% for Franconia and he wins. Hats off to him, I'm really impressed. On top of that I am even more scared now what he's going to do with vd Hende, because that guy already showed in the past that he can win races. This also shows how much I f*cked up Grazziotin. Stats wise he's so much better than Dokkum, but I've never been able to get a decent result out of him. I will promise you guys I will never sell him to Franconia For me today turned out exactly as I feared. Lestrade very strong on the first flat stretch and not strong enough in the mountains, Malton too much behind after the flat stretch to recover in the mountains. If I would have had a combi of the two I might have won .
