Maybe a stupid question but I did see people mentioning the 'double attack bug' in the past, but I have honestly no idea what the bug exactly is / does… can someone please explain this? In short: if two (or more) of your riders attack together at the same attack point, it seems that the rider(s) with lower skills will negatively influence your attacker(s) with higher skills. (While you would expect that they help each other.)

Actually they do. It is more that the game then takes the average of your attacking riders and uses that for all these attackers. So you can use an attacker to boost your GC rider. On the other hand, if you have a stage hunter, he will be negatively influenced by the lesser rider and probably not win the stage.

Season update is done and the new calendar is available.
1st season update will be sunday so don't forget to buy merchandise and check riders contracts.
Don´t forget also to check sponsor contract.
Hope you like the new calendar and have fun playing Peloton.

I've got the impression that some race profiles are still faulty. Or else we would have really an excess of sprint races in this season.
Example: Shall the Tour de Hongrie really have exactly zero attack points?

Example: Shall the Tour de Hongrie really have exactly zero attack points? Tour de Hongrie is correct, one ITT (prologue) and two sprint races over different profiles. There are many of those tours in practice, and I wanted to have one in the calendar as well. It really gives the opportunity to use your helpers, and requires some different tactics when aiming for yellow as well, so I think that's really an addition to the calendar (at least to have it sometimes). In fact, we had such a tour one time before as well (season 21 if I remember correctly).
About the excess of sprint races: there are 9 sprint races this season, which is very comparable to other seasons (in fact, last two seasons had 10 sprint races, so that's even more). There might just be quite many in the first half of the season, but then you have to make choices where you use your sprinter.

I always like new things and races that require tactics. If the best rider always wins, it is getting boring So I cheer for these new things like Hongarie. And I also like when you have to make choices.
I haven’t checked the calendar yet, but such a sprint tour is interesting. Especially if the ITT is the first race. Then that winner will not win then yellow.

Will we start season 26 with the new engine? Or still the old one?

And to prevent people from boring out in the coming week without races, I will already share the planning templates, such that you can have a look at the calendar (for the profiles: check the race ID's in the races tab) and start planning There's not much difference between the first 2 versions, only in the way that form is visualized. The "normal" one is the style in which Schizm made it (with coloured cells next to each column), the adaped normal one has the effort coloured in a code that matches to different forms. I made the second one for myself earlier because I like to navigate through the sheet with the arrow keys on my keyboard (and hit the button once to switch cyclist).
I really appreciate your work. Makes things simpler for a lot of lazy managers. One suggestion for an extra column: Race ID Edit: Sorry, stupid me. You even provided 3 different tabs. And there in Races it is. Thanks!

I would ask a favor to you guys, please share in your country foruns/newspaper the Peloton Game.
Since we don't have real cycling we could get some new managers to play.
Thanks in advance.

And there in Races it is. Thanks! Good that you found it already. If you want to have it in the calendar sheet as well, that's also possible. In fact, it is already there, but hidden. So if you unhide column D you'll see the race ID there as well (just right-click a column, choose "unhide", drag the columns before F a bit to change their size (such that they are actually visible) and hide the ones that you don't need again).
And of course most efforts in the sheet were done by Schizm before, so actually it's him who you should thank
