And Sheffield crashed again

Defined as the period between two .xls releases, I think. So it varies, as sometimes Monday points go to the previous week.

So rude of Milan to steal Ayuso’s leader’s points today.

I might have sent him a small paycheck this morning!

Curious to see if my Pidcock/Tiberi/Poole trifecta can outscore your Ayuso in this race. I need to start eating into that massive gap you have.

A ranking I'm not dead-last in!

I think you are. I'd assume the GC (overall standings) is the tie-breaker, at least in the case of 0 points where no one has more stage victories than others (or second places etc.).

Hmm, or maybe that would continue down with most weekly 16th places, 17th places and so forth?

I'm not listed as being last, so I'm not last.
Let me have my tiny non-loss...

Yes hopefully someone can close the gap to shalgo. It would be great if we didn't have a third runaway winner in a row (unless it's me again in which case it's totally fine).

shalgo has an annoyingly good team though.

I can help you more by sorting it alphabetically but then in descending order...

Yes, every good pick i have, he has too. Every bad pick i have.... nevermind

At least you didn’t pick Ethan Hayter.

picked Sheffield instead! Choose your fighter!

You are 71st now. Rename yourself to XedheadDane and you jump to 60.

 

[bminchow]

I think i got y'all beat. I went all in on Ineos with Rodriguez, Sheffield, Hayter and Arensman. Perhaps that was a mistake. The only Ineos i didnt pick? Bernal, of course. I guess I'm saving my luck for the Grand Tour games

 

[Earns1985]

At least Ayuso didn´t look like a 3000 pointer today, which gives as non-Ayuso owners at least a bit hope.
Still finished second neverless, but he definitly wasn´t the second strongest climber today..

Sure. +2000 will do just fine.

At least Arensman seems to be a good pick..

Too early to tell, he likes to crash

 

[Devil's Elbow]

2, 4, 6 and 7 on the current GC in Tirreno, and a pretty healthy margin to 8 and lower to boot. Clear improvement over recent weeks, but Rodriguez and Démare really need to get their act together if I want to do much better than linger in the mid-30s.

It was after the mountains in this very race in 2022 that I said I was perfectly happy not having Evenepoel. For the sake of my team's success, it would be beneficial if your statement ages equally poorly.

Those four + Tiberi in 9th for me. Hopefully that will push me back into the top 20.

Yes, it's more likely than not that he will have 600+ after just 11 race days. Assuming he avoids any injuries, difficult to see anyone winning without him this year?

The rest of my team continue the general trend of mediocrity:

Poole - Fanboy pick that doesn't look like working out unless he starts doing some one-day races. Chose someone in the wrong year of their development, again.

Vauquelin - Just confirming that he isn't a WT GC rider. Hopefully, Arkea will alter his schedule accordingly, but unlikely given the composition of their team.

D.Martinez - refusing to believe just yet, that he's going to disappear for the rest of the season?
