Update #24: greenedge doesn't just edge it
One small Belgian one-dayer, one small French one-dayer, one small Italian stage race and a ton of mostly obscure national championships. That was what was offered up this week. The most impactful pick was Ivan Sosa, who won the Adriatica-Ionica race. He's picked just 9 times, and this victory takes his points tally to 279 points. At a cost of 72, he's turning out to be a great pick. Belgian champion Yves Lampaert, picked twice, was the highest scoring pick this week, with 176 points.

Dominating win for greenedge this week! 116 points ahead of 2nd place in a rather low-scoring week is very impressive! Sosa is a heavy hitter for the weekly winner, but what sets greenedge apart from the other Sosers are his abundant minor scorers. Vanmarcke, DVP, K.Hagen, D.Smith, A.Turgis and De Bie all contribute more than 30 points each to make it a resounding victory for the team.
Kryvo is the only one in the top 5 without Sosa. Instead, they're helped out by Valverde, I.Izagirre, Kudus, DVP and De Bie. The rather unique team of Leadbelly has another moment in the sun with consecutive top 5s. The main scorers Valverde & Sosa are rare but not
that rare, however, unique picks Pierre Idjouadiene and Jakub Otruba both score more than 20 points.
