    Slowly dropping in the overall rankings, the Giro isn't going as hoped, Haig and Vine out of GC contention, De Plus performing better than expected. Healy doing Healy things and Aurelien Paret-Peintre scoring some stage points and staying close in the GC. So maybe still possible to end this week...

    Thanks for taking over the updates EITB! Dropped off the overall podium after a few low score weeks, but things are looking allright for the giro (even with Mader dropping out last minute). Giro Team: Roglic, Vine, Haig and maybe Paret-Peintre for GC, Healy as stage hunter. De Plus is also...

    Same for me, didn't expect him to be this strong. Healy really saved me this week, rest of my team scored less than 20 points

    Still 2nd place overall, very happy about that. Expected some of the MVDP teams to end up higher. It's all very close, a few good results from Pidcock and I'm out of the top 10. Quite a few starters this week and with Hodeg this week and Valgren last week all of my riders have started their...

    well, last week went about as bad as expected. Not even 200 pts. Stuyven unlucky again (as repre already said above) and Politt with another random attack. That said It was an amazing edition of RVV, one of the best I've seen in the last 20 years. Itzulia Basque Country: Gaudu and Gregoire for...

    Quite happy with how this week turned out, just shy of a 1000 pts if I'm correct. Roglic good for about half this amount. Healy winning in Italy makes up for the disappointing (points wise only) flemish races. RVV not looking good for my team, guess I have to hope for a Van Aert/Pogacar 1-2 to...

    Expected to drop more places after a low score week, but still 6th. This week is looking better with roglic in catalunya and the 'vlaamse koersen' Volta Ciclista a Catalunya: Roglic in form and Schelling picking up some early points, youngsters Uijtdebroeks and Van Eetvelt with good...

    Congrats to Yellow Knight for an impressive win! 3rd place for the week and 3rd place overall for my team, so really happy. Indeed very close in the ranking, complete top 10 within 300 pts. This week is not looking great for me: Milano - Torino: only Ben Hermans Danilith Nokere Koerse &...

    Amazing week for my team, Roglic cleaning up in TA and my GC guys in PN collectively outscoring Roglic. Couldn't have hoped for a better result.

    Busy weekend ahead, looking forward to seeing MVDP race again. Too bad he's not on my team :-) Strade Bianche: no MVDP and no Pidcock, so it's up to Alaphilippe and Simmons to step up ;-) SCHELLING Ide SIMMONS Quinn KWIATKOWSKI Michal ALAPHILIPPE Julian BRENNER Marco HOELGAARD Markus DE PLUS...

    Same for me, but replace pidcock with Politt :-) Had Ewan and Vine for UAE, so expectations were a bit higher. Le Samyn: STUYVEN Jasper - Looked okay this weekend, so could do well against a bit weaker field Trofeo Laigueglia: KWIATKOWSKI Michal GREGOIRE Romain VAN EETVELT Lennert Curious to...

    Pretty good week thanks to Paret-Peintre in Tour des Alpes Maritimes et du Var. He's off to a good start of the season. Not many points in Ruta del Sol and Algarve, but several riders showed some good form. Laurens De Plus is looking good, doing domestic duties and still finishing strong. I...
