World Championship Road Race

Only just seen the highlights on the iPlayer. Got 121 and 6th on the race with 6 scorers including the winner. First in the forum I think for both ITT (first 6) and road race. Pity I forgot about the TTT!

So why is it again that a budget for this race can say 150.8 credits? I'm getting messages that I'm overbudget, but the balance is 0... It feels weird... Why does this happen again?

Just settled on mine

Spartacus
Sagan
EBH
Hushovd
LuLu
Nordhaug
Degenkolb
Jurco
Tybor

I have gambled in my standard team by not picking Sagan or Cancellara...

GILBERT
HUSHOVD
GVA
KOLOBNEV
MARCZYNSKI
RUI COSTA
LULU
NORDHAUG
EBH

Slightly more conventional in my purist line-up...

P.SAGAN
J.SAGAN
CANCELLARA
EBH
KOLOBNEV
LULU
LOFKVIST
VOECKLER
KONOVALOVAS

Confirmation of why Tiernan-Locke withdrew.

Appears that he had 'discrepancies' in his biological passport last September (no confirmation if it was during the Tour of Britain or not).

Break seems to be forming, seems to include Barta, Huzarski, Brandle and Chtioui.

Edit: Godoy the fifth man in the break. Sound like it's those five away for the time being.

standard: 2,6,9,10
purist: 6,9,10,13

Standard - 1,9,10,16.

Not bad.

20. BOASSON HAGEN Edvald SKY 01'05" 22

1st, 6th, 9th and 12th purist, 3rd, 6th, 9th and 12th standard, should be okish

My last minute decision to swap out Pozzato for Ulissi cost me 4 points for both teams, but other than that not too bad

Crap day, glad I didn't have any GB riders in my team

3,6,9,12 both teams. It could've gone much better - had Uran in purists and Dan Martin in std, and got up this morning to bring in Purito for Sagan but there was 20 seconds to the deadline and I didn't quite click through in time!
And Denifl punctured last lap - wouldn't have got much but I thought he might be a good pick for top 20 so its a shame I'll never know for sure how he would have finished.

Voeckler last man home?

2,6 & 12 purist 3 & 6 + Barta standard

1-2-3-9 should be really good
