Stage 3 Boring flat stages can get interesting in the end

This is why 8 teams thought that Gaviria might be worth a price higher than some GC contenders. If he can stay in pink fro three more weeks, they will definitely be right, but given that that won't happen, he will be expected to do more on future stages.

The leader for the first 2 days, Just Some Guy, drops behind the 8 Gaviria teams to 9th, but it is those Jungels owners that were lower in the table that have the biggest rises today.

Unless there is an eruption of Etna, causing a cancellation or curtailment, we can confidently predict an eruption in this table on Tuesday.

Nice of them to have a day off on the Monday following a first Sunday: I might be able to get some or all editions of the Emerging Riders games update done on the "rest day".

If you are stuck for how to use your cycling-watching time on rest day, you can peruse the spreadsheet here.
 
So today is when the game begins to take shape.

In most editions of the GT games, the race winner is an absolute must have if he gets the leaders jersey early. In this edition, price differences are such that by eschewing the favourite to win, it was possible to get three or four (because Landa is so cheap) podium contenders.

I was pleased to see that one team did go for the Quintana/Landa/makeweights option (thanks Shalgo). If, as some expect, Quintana wins by a big margin today, he is headed for not only 500 pts for winning GC, but also a massive 306 accumulated pink jersey wearer points (equivalent to somewhere between 3rd and 4th in GC). Then Landa's performance becomes key: his ubiquity means he takes the tactical role of the teammate of a KoM jersey contender's teammate takeing points at a pass so that no-one else can get them. If Quintana were to take an unsurmountable grip on GC today (I don't particularly expect it myself, but some do), and Landa ends up 2nd on GC, then it will require 3rd, 4th and 5th from another Landa owning team to cancel that out. And that leaves the non-Shalgo team only 5 other riders, as opposed to Shalgo's 7, to get other points. If Landa is below 3rd in final GC, then 2nd, 3rd and 10th would be enough to cancel out Quintana, but that is still a set of results most of us won't get, or even get near to.

Now I put it like that, perhaps I should have gone for Quintana after all.
 
Stage 4 Mt Etna

Purple Points

Although we saw no-one trying to break the race apart, we do have the riders who are more likely to be worth investment higher in the field, so at least a few points for nearly everyone.

Three non-finishers and a disqualification today, but none of them were selected for the game.

Gains and losses:
The teams that have a lot of sprinters, and especially Gaviria, take a big hit, otherwise it has been a day to rake in the points.

Standings
Yesterday's standings are reduced to irrelevance: of that top ten, only 2 are in the top ten today(yesterday's leader is now 5th, today's was 10th), and 4 are in the bottom ten. 23 teams have a double digit move (Jakob's 30 place rise being the best), and only the two teams at the bottom are in the same places as when they left Sardinia.

Stage 5 Race to the ferry

I haven't watched yet: might get a chance to later but I get the impression I haven't missed anything.

Purple points
Mainly lower profile sprinters in the top ten, who are therefore more affordable and more frequently chosen. And Gaviria, who is getting close to justifying the big outlay that some have spent on him. He already has enough guaranteed points to be better than 8th in GC (if that rider were to get no more than 7 stage points).

No echelons, meaningful chase of the break or driving finish from the puncheurs; likewise, no real action in the table, with Mellow Velo up 2 places as the most relevant change, one new member of the top ten sneaking in at number ten (ChrisDK), and the biggest rise being 7 places for Silver Grenade.

Stage 7 Marshall dodging and a one lap crit

Purple points

Gaviria is now equivalent to 6th in final GC through guaranteed points alone: there will be more expensive GC picks who don't do that...
Meanwhile, Jungels' accumulated leader bonuses are now worth more than a stage win.

Purple points

Torcia86 will have been upset about the fate of his unique pick in the last km, and Jungels' retention of pink, which twice seemed to be in doubt, prevented my unique pick from being top scorer today.

Forget everything prior to today.
Of yesterday's top 5, only one is now in the top 30; one of yesterday's top ten is still top ten (Jakob, now 4th). Today's top three were 28th, 24th and 27th yesterday. 3 teams rise by 30+ places (Laarsland 36, Flo 35, Kabete 32) and another 7 by 20+: 9 teams fell by more than 20 places, with Mellow Velo surely breaking all records, tumbling 41 places in a 46 strong field.

Stage 10 ITT

Did only one entrant think Dumoulin might be in with a chance, or was it that only one thought he was half as good again as a prospect than Nibali or Pinot? Yellow Knight's trust brings some dividends. Mollema meanwhile, almost exactly the same price as Pinot, got the nod over the Frenchman from absolutely no-one, which is beginning to look collectively remiss of us.

In contrast to many previous games, most teams go into week 2 with their full complement of 9, and no team has lost more than one rider. Pelucci was, I assume, a cheap sprinter in the hope of some fluke top tens rather than a major tactical bulwark for his 7 teams: Kelderman will have been more of a loss to Vladimir.



Standings

No change among that very tight top 4, except that it is even tighter, and immediately below them Yellow Knight, who was second last before they started the Blockhaus stage, but up 29 places today (putting Kazistuta's 25 place rise in the shade) and with the prospect of at least a few days' worth of 18 point bonuses to follow. The other upward movement in the top ten is Leadbelly going from 10th to 6th.

Leadbelly becomes the first non-Gavirian to break into that top 8 for a while.


Pink points
Other than the stage points, the rises of Amador, Kangert and Cataldo have an opposite effect of falls for other riders who might no longer be thought of as contenders. Van Garderen's fall is achieved independently of the efforts of the breakaway.

Standings

The two big scorers on the day, Kabete and GPBlanco, leap from 7th and 12th respectively to first and second places, but their tenure is only as safe as the new elevated positions of Amador and Kangert. Yellow Knight, the only team with Dumoulin, also has Kangert, and also reaches the podium. There are even bigger rises further down the table, Rote Laterne being the biggest climber (17 places).

Assuming Gaviria gets into Milan, he will probably score more game points than whoever comes 2nd on GC, and will probably have been much cheaper than whoever that is. Well done to the teams that picked him.

The Thomas teams had probably only retained a small hope of an acceptable return: today that lingering shred was eliminated. I suppose itmeans that today at least had some GC relevance.

Standings

That is beginning to look like a very tidy lead, built on Gaviriia,Nibali, GPM specialist Fraile, and what many will consider to be two top ten overachievers in Amador and Kangert. Can they, and GPBlanco, hang on? Vladimir out-rises the Gavirians, taking a nine place leap courtesy of Bennett.

Stage 14 Oropa: in search of sanctuary from attacks

Purple points


A possible 126 pink jersey points still to come, and another TT for which he will be a favourite: Dumoulin will be a big part of this classification as well as of the main part of the game.

Popular riders abound in the top 10 today, along with the pair who were not to be ignored, but were too expensive to be very popular.

Pink points

Zakarin tops up his 2nd place points with a GC jump from 10th to 5th, but Dumoulin goes from 11th to first on the KoM classification, and so gets 70 more projected points. In effect, He has maximised his projected category points, which ban only fall, and can only gain through daily bonuses.

Mollema was the only GC high placing contender who went unpicked: yesterday's 100 point drop vindicates us collectively.

Standings

And it is back to being very close: 8 teams within 107 points. Kangert's gain was not enough to make up for the losses of Amador for GPBlanco, while Crevaison, with all five of the non-Dumoulin riders whose score increased by 30 or more, comes from 7th to overtake him. Fauniera, Trudgin and Kabete (2nd, 3rd and 4th previously) slip backwards for lack of Zakarin/Dumoulin, allowing Laarsland, Yellow Knight and Flo to move up. Leadbelly makes a top ten appearance, and Los Brolin is the 13 place high riser of the day.

Those 10 Kangert included those who were the top 5 this morning, and 8th place. Those 6 teams now occupy 6th to 11th places, and we have a totally new top five. That means that the only Dumoulin team has taken a hit that 5 more pink jersey bonuses can only go halfway to making up for.

The only team in the red is Dumoulin's Yellow Knight, but through loss of KoM classification standing points (and lack of Landa) rather than losing the race lead.

Standings
Only 2 teams are still in the same position as before the rest day: one of them is mid-table, but the other is our leader, Fauniera. Plenty of change behind him, and a much narrower lead. The closest challengers, GPBlanco and Crevaison, are up from 7th and 6th respectivey, and behind them AG on the back of a best-of-the-day 14 place rise. Hakkie, SemirS, Amis Velo, GodChild and Squire are also entries to the top ten. Yellow Knight's fall is as much down to being Landa-less as Dumoulin's gastric discomfort, but while Quintana is well placed to take advantage, the only Quintana team, Shalgo, would require another 200 pts beyond the 125 additional points for 1st rather than 2nd, and the 72 remaining pink jersey bonus points, to be competitive.

Standings

The gap opens again at the top, as the top two have Rolland. Two other teams from the top ten have him: Godchild, up from 9th to reach the virtual podium, and Squire, from 10th to 5th. Despite the loss of Bauhaus, the combination of Dumoulin and Rolland make Yellow Knight the top riser (11 places) of the day.

Compared my team and Fauniera's. We have quite some riders in common, Gaviria, Landa, Rolland and Fraile. I have Nibali as my main GC guy and he has Pinot plus Pozzovivo. Which means he has the advantage of two GC men.
