Update 12
Strong performances in Slovenia key for rote_lanterne
Having the duo of Jack Haig (98) and Egan Bernal (61) who came 2nd and 4th respectively in Tour de Slovenie was the key to doing well in this update, both of the top two had them however the addition of Antwan Tolhoek (50) who took the climbers jersey in Tour de Suisse helped rote-lanterne claim top spot, almost ubiquitous pick Fernando Gaviria (33) also contributed a handful of points. Second placed Wallenquist had three of the previous four riders and also got a decent contribution due to Nathan Van Hooydonck (25) doing well in a couple of lower level races, Ronde de l'Oise and Circuit de Wallonie. Rounding out the podium is Hugo Koblet who in addition to Haig, Gaviria and Van Hooydonck had to thank Davide Martinelli (50) and his 5th place finish in Ster ZLM Toer.
The top mover this time was Joelsim he moved up to 29th place overall, 18-Valve moved up to 37th, both of these did so thanks to riders previously mentioned. The next two however, JSG and search, moved up partly because of Gavin Mannion's (45) performance in Korea where he claimed 7th place.
Often when reviewing the last fortnights performances a lot of the same names come up over and over again so I try to have a look out for rare or unique riders who have done well, the two that stand out to me at least are Soren Kragh Andersen (59) who finished 4th in Ster ZLM Toer, he is an expensive pick at just over 30% of total budget and has returned exactly half of that value so far for the two who chose him, Ben1376 and Postmanpat. The second is unique pick Tim Merlier who collected 32 points for MADRAZO due to a 5th place finish in Ronde van Limburg.
As for the overall picture Allobroges continues to be in first place and extended their already hefty lead by a further 44 points, a strong performance in this update from Armchair Cyclist means they currently sit in third place, there is some minor movement up and down in the top ten but no huge jumps the only new entry in the top ten this week is CraZyCaLL who moves up one place to tenth, that is at the expense of Yellow Knight who fell from 7th to 11th.
