Omega Pharma v Lotto

[Lexman]

Greipel has 6 wins ?

 

[luckyboy]

Only 7 for Lotto according to cqranking.
It has QuickStep at 16 too.

8 actually.

cq lists 5 Greipel wins, but the Lotto website also includes his win in Australia at the Down Under Classic prior to the TdU.

Nice work by Meersman- he can probably fit into quite a good niche.

 

[Zam_Olyas]

how much is the score now?

 

[Zinoviev Letter]

how much is the score now?

OPQS: 17
Lotto: 7

17 wins two weeks into March is ridiculous.

 

[Lexman]

Given the team budget of each team respectively i think the score for now is correct...

go Lotto go,

go Boonen go

 

[greenedge]

Lotto have still been going well ( compared to others )- i expect them to start picking up more sprint wins after the Classics and hopefully JVDB to go stage hunting at a few races- before the TDF.

OPQS are going great. Tony will probably be starting to pick up major wins in a month or so- the Classics are bigger than any stage races going on in that period except for Basque.

Does anyone on this forum rate País Vasco higher than RVV, PR or LBL? That would surprise me. But heck, who knows.

i'm sure libertine does

 

[luckyboy]

There are only two stage races bigger than Ronde or Roubaix.

Maybe the Vuelta too.

 

[greenedge]

Sry what i meant was no one will really care about any other race that is not a classics apart from Pais Vasco ( though i am liking Albasini going well )

 

[Lexman]

17 - 7 but who got the most victories in WT races?

If i consulted the UCI site correctly i count 4 WT victories for Lotto & only 1 for OPQS?

3 by Greipel & 1 by Meersman

1 by Boonen

[luckyboy]

Greipel won 3 stages of a training race.

training race or not it's a Wt stage race...

 

[The Hitch]

i'm sure libertine does

lol nice one.

Probably true too.

3. You forgot the worlds.

Also, I would argue that the orr is bigger than Ronde or Robaix, though I understand some fans are still in denial about that

He was talking about stage races, not one day races though.

lol another epic fail by me.

 

[TeoSheva]

One win more for Chicchi...

 

[Zam_Olyas]

Chichi won again at handzame..OPQS are having a stormer

 

[Zam_Olyas]

OPQS win again, i think.

 

[Parrulo]

OPQS win again, i think.

1-2 in fact

they are dominating the first part of the season, tho i think they will fade a bit after the ardennes.

 

[Zam_Olyas]

19th wins....impressive amount of wins lol

 

[therhodeo]

I think they have the personnel to challenge quite a few stages and smaller races. I don't see a GT win but with Bottle, the Velits', and Grabsch/Martin to drag them along they shouldn't be too bad in stage races.
