Sorry for yet another thread but I have to ask
1.Are here breakaways and if so what is their criteria? 2.This is a VERY important question.. how is relay(not sure of the word.. I am referring to the team that tries to "bus" the favorite as far as possible) calculated? a.any rider with the highest effort set? b.selection of the best skilled rider for a given surface? c.any other criteria? 3.Finish in climbing for last climb of the day polka dot points are doubled? or all "red lines" give the same points?

1. No, not really. Every cyclist rides the race for himself, depending on his skills and the terrain. Setting higher effort in a race can be looked at as an attempt to break away. 2. There's no such thing (yet?) in this game. Every cyclist rides for himself. The more cyclists, the better they perform though, so selecting 5 cyclist every time can be seen as helping the favourite of your team. 3. All red lines give exactly the same amount of points. They are working on a system to make mountain stages more important with regard to the polka dot jersey, including points at the end of all stages that finish uphill. (wonder when we'll hear more about this though, they've been working on it since the end of the giro...)
