Re:
I was tempted to take him due to him having guaranteed leadership for all hardman sprinter's races Astana line up for. But I didn't expect him to do what he did today. He could be a good asset for you and the others who picked him.
Cort was in and out of my team when putting it together. If Oomen had cost 100 points more, Cort would likely be in. I was happy when I saw he was only picked three times.MADRAZO said:I had gotten a little bit worried about my pick of Magnus Cort after he only got picked 3 times, and maybe thought I had underestimated the effect of his broken colorbone in the winter, something that usually does not mean so much since one can often keep training. But what a nice start for him today close to winning in a very strong sprinter-field, and setting himself up for a top GC result in Dubai plus showing a lot of speed that will be very useful later this season where he will have a great calender full of his own chances at Astana, instead of his weird role on Orica where sprinting was often not allowed to fight for top 10 GC spots and so on and where he also was second to Ewan in many races that could have suited him. So I am back thinking he will be a great pick instead of a weakness.
