Update #14: RemCosnefroy shine in Amstel
The start of the Ardennes classics see new teams stamp their mark on the game much like Evenepoel did on Amstel. More big weeks from the Belgian could threaten to upend the top of the GC but for now his backers remain very much on the periphery of the GC. With the Giro prep and the Ardennes in full swing there is still more twists and turns to come in the coming days.

Suspiciously, EITB has his first good week of the season once he takes over the update duties. Evenepoel, Cosnefroy, Nordhagen and Verstrynge did just enough to push him past 18-Valve. (pithy) and their Evenepoel, Cosnefroy, Romeo and Gaviria combo. Trackstand takes third in no small part due to Foldager's surprise win on Friday. Armchairclimber with the dynamic duo of Riccitello and Bisiaux finishes fourth on the week while veteran MADRAZO closes out the top 5 with a very round 600 points.
