I know it is still early, but I am feeling pretty good about my Porte/Aru/Kittel team at the moment. I was disappointed to find out at the beginning of the game that I was not the only person to pick all three of them. It would be funny if the final result ends up coming down to something like the relative performance of Brajkovic vs. Kiserlovski.

With Meintjes as his main GC pick, and a team that includes Kittel, Groenewegen, McLay, Boudat and Swift, Kazistuta seems to be targetting this classification rather than the main, Yellow points, game.

Great to see I've peaked for this Tour, all downhill from here. Going for strength in numbers GC-wise is so far looking as a better bet for the Tour than the Giro, granted we've only seen a 17-minute interval effort so far..

More interest to watch, at least for first 3/4 of the stage, than it's effect on the game. Calmejane's rise to top of the KoM classification, and the rises and fall of others, is the main change other than stage points.

The bottom three in the daily rankings, in exact reverse order, were the top three in the rankings yesterday. That results in a swap of the top two places, but no other places until you get down to Hakkie moving into the top ten. Bikeracer333 is the (5 place) jumper of the day.

More interest to watch, at least for first 3/4 of the stage, than it's effect on the game. Calmejane's rise to top of the KoM classification, and the rises and fall of others, is the main change other than stage points.

The bottom three in the daily rankings, in exact reverse order, were the top three in the rankings yesterday. That results in a swap of the top two places, but no other places until you get down to Hakkie moving into the top ten. Bikeracer333 is the (5 place) jumper of the day.

The top three this morning all suffer through Porte's misfortune, and despite having Uran, Laarsland cannot capitalise to move up from 4th. The three teams immediately below him this morning are all now above him; Amis Velo, Mellow Velo, Leadbelly and Vladimir all move into the top ten, but none of them can match DJW's 18 place jump.

I believe this is the first time I'm leading any kind of CQ game. Uran is paying off in several fantasy games.

Not a lot happening: Laarsland and Amis Velo hang on to their positions in the top five, despite not having Kittel (but probably won't tonight), Minessa into the top ten, Hayabusa and The Pirate81 both have 5 place mid-table jumps.

At least there is potential for change tomorrow, but the riders with a chance of giving their managers a boost also have the danger of causing them a major slump.

Yellow points
Once the "heads of state" are at the top of GC rankings, subsequent changes are as much the result of failings and falls rather than active progress. So today there are 2 main falls: Froome's hands a huge dividend to Aru (and potentially several days of 20 point bonuses); Fuglsangs gives smaller numbers of points to many riders

Squire's lead more than doubles (from 3 points to 7) because although Fauniera's Kiserlovski moved up 2 places to 46th, Brajkovic went up from 45th to 39th. The gap between the two riders who are probably unaware that the game rests on their relative performances has gone out to 5:38 today.
Amis Velo is the highest placed team to see any improvement in position, up 2 places to 6th, Shalgo is into the top ten, and Ratta Kuningas has the biggest (7 place) improvement.

Standings: All the Aru teams in the top 13 dropped roughly the same number of points, so none of them changed position at all. Hayabusa is the top placed to have moved, and Armchair Cyclist's 9 place rise is the best of the day.
But in the all important Brajkovic/Kiserlovski battle, Janez had an off day, finishing 4:45 behind his rival, and losing 3 places on GC, while Kiserlovski moves up 2 GC places. That means there are now just 2 points between Squire and Fauniera, and 53 seconds between the two unaware protagonists.

Robert was pretty weak in that break though. Couldn't keep up with the big group. The third week will be a nailbiter.

Stage 15 Nearly mayhem in the Midi
Green points
This is where points in the Tour game are harder to come by than in the Giro/Vuelta editions. In Mayor August, there are budget riders who might feature in such a breakaway: only one of this lot would have cost less than 300pts of your budget.

Standings:
Kiserlovski was in the break, and although he didn't feature in the latter stages (he was overtaken by Dan Martin near the end), he was 5'20 ahead of Brajkovic, whom he overtakes, as well as a few others, thus boosting Fauniera ahead of Search. Amis Velo also moves up to the virtual podium. Pirate81, Los Brolin and Comodoro all moved up 2 spots, nobody did more.

Green points
This is where points in the Tour game are harder to come by than in the Giro/Vuelta editions. In Mayor August, there are budget riders who might feature in such a breakaway: only one of this lot would have cost less than 300pts of your budget.

Standings:
Kiserlovski was in the break, and although he didn't feature in the latter stages (he was overtaken by Dan Martin near the end), he was 5'20 ahead of Brajkovic, whom he overtakes, as well as a few others, thus boosting Fauniera ahead of Search. Amis Velo also moves up to the virtual podium. Pirate81, Los Brolin and Comodoro all moved up 2 spots, nobody did more.

Rest Day 2
So where have all those points come from?
Green points
Unlike the green jersey IRL, this catgory yields the same amount of points every day: 80 to the stage winner down to 1 for tenth, plus 20 point bonus for whoever receives the yellow that evening (no bonus next Sunday though)
Looking at this, its no wonder that those with Kittel and Aru dominate (No-one combines Kittel with Froome or Demare):
1 KITTEL Marcel 402 16 teams
2 FROOME Chris 275 2 teams
3 MATTHEWS Michael 202 0 team
4 DEMARE Arnaud 190 1 team
5 ARU Fabio 182 20 teams
6 THOMAS Geraint 164 1 team
7 BARGUIL Warren 145 6 teams
8 URAN URAN Rigoberto 138 3 teams
9 BOASSON HAGEN Edvald 122 0 team
10 BARDET Romain 120 5 teams
10 GROENEWEGEN Dylan 120 2 teams
12 KRISTOFF Alexander 115 0 team
13 GREIPEL André 112 1 team
14 MARTIN Daniel 110 1 team
15 CALMEJANE Lilian 85 0 team
16 SAGAN Peter 81 0 team
17 MOLLEMA Bauke 80 0 team
Yellow Points
This includes the above, but also points for the mountain and points categories in the same distribution as for a stage, and the GC standings points: 600 for first, then 450, 380, 320, 290 down to 21 for 50th and 20 for all finishers below that.
1 FROOME Chris 887 2 teams
2 ARU Fabio 636 20 teams
3 KITTEL Marcel 502 16 teams
4 BARDET Romain 500 5 teams
5 URAN URAN Rigoberto 458 3 teams
6 MARTIN Daniel 408 1 team
7 BARGUIL Warren 345 6 teams
8 LANDA MEANA Mikel 338 0 team
9 MATTHEWS Michael 272 0 team
10 YATES Simon 257 0 team
11 CONTADOR VELASCO Alberto 220 1 team
12 MEINTJES Louis 215 19 teams
13 QUINTANA ROJAS Nairo Alexander 193 0 team
14 DEMARE Arnaud 190 1 team
15 GREIPEL André 167 1 team
16 THOMAS Geraint 164 1 team
17 KRISTOFF Alexander 160 0 team

19 BOASSON HAGEN Edvald 152 0 team
20 GROENEWEGEN Dylan 145 2 teams
The problem that most managers found was selecting any riders who were inexpensive but had much point winning potential. The average budget per rider was 444, so moderately expensive picks (between average and 2x average spend) could have yielded:
URAN URAN Rigoberto 458 3 teams
LANDA MEANA Mikel 338 0 teams
MEINTJES Louis 215 19 teams
THOMAS Geraint 164 1 teams
CARUSO Damiano 160 0 teams
BENNETT George 138 1 teams
CALMEJANE Lilian 134 0 teams
LATOUR Pierre 110 3 teams
GALLOPIN Tony 90 0 teams
BUCHMANN Emanuel 88 7 teams
Spending between average and half of that offered little earning power, with one notable exception:
BARGUIL Warren 345 6 teams
VUILLERMOZ Alexis 109 0 team
MARTIN Guillaume 107 2 teams
NIEVE ITURRALDE Mikel 101 2 teams
ROCHE Nicolas 76 0 team

PAUWELS Serge 66 6 teams
BAKELANTS Jan 62 1 team
KIRYIENKA Vasil 55 0 team
SELIG Rüdiger 52 0 team
HARDY Romain 52 0 team
And the riders half of budget or below, who we all have to look at to be able to afford the top men, have had very little to offer, most of us having at least opted for the best return available:
BETANCUR GOMEZ Carlos Alberto 82 22 teams
FEILLU Brice 77 0 teams

Yellow points
Aru is the most selected rider among GC contenders, so many teams had a poor day today. Almost as many lose Kittel's leadership of the points classification.

Kiserlovski now has about 3 minutes over Brajkovic: if Squire is to make up ground, it might have to be through Tulik, Poljanski or Bevin (or a DNF for Voeckler, Boudat or Kozhatayev). Laarsland overtakes Hugo87, placing the three Uran teams in the top 4. Although Froome is the rider who least obviously gained points from Aru's difficulties, but the two biggest risers are the two who invested in him: Armchair up 8 to 7th, and Bicycle Boy up 10 spots. 6 and 7 place leaps respectively bring The Pirate81 and AlPacino into the top ten as well as Armchair.

Hayabusa and Mellow Velo both scored, slightly, today. Froome has now got more points in this category than Kittel, but Froome teams had less back up quality in their teams, so are still 19th and 20th in this classification.

In the absence of Kittel, I can't imagine Sunday having any more impact on the game than today did (or than Sunday will in the real event), so it is all down to tomorrow.
A day that will not be causing much change in the game:

11= Everyone else 0
Standings
Hayabusa and Mellow Velo both scored, slightly, today. Froome has now got more points in this category than Kittel, but Froome teams had less back up quality in their teams, so are still 19th and 20th in this classification.
