Route for Stage 6 changed because of high winds, 2 laps of the finishing circuit.
Did anyone get chance to change their team?
Now cancelled. Two unfortunate transfers for me. Can't be helped.
Yeah, I wasted one bringing in Matthews. I tried to wait for news but read the stage was still on. What can you do?
I think Schmid was DNS today (Procyclingstats). He appears to have been awarded points in the TTT.
Yes, naturally I picked Schmid being the "GC captain" for Q/S. Oh well. One of the problems being in Oz with a late stage start.
For the record, TER scored stage. I've fixed it.
I very nearly picked him too. Decided I wanted the budget and missed a bullet.
I'm trying to get my head around this too. My feeling is that it has to be scored like you suggest with the 'team time' taken on the first over the line. Can't work out how the change affects strategy within the game though!
Game strategy; eg Jumbo appears to be the stand out favorite for the TTT. I considered putting in Foss instead of Vingegaard to save money, so I could put in Pog. But if it is all for the "captain", then Foss will probably be sacrificed and finish well down.
Yes we will score as per TTT scoring, but there will be some weird looking results. Will the betting be listing teams or individuals to win?
And how will the last rise affect stage 1?
I've read some conflicting reports on what's happening with the TTT. The official rules say they're taking the team's time on the first rider. So the whole team might be given the same time. I'm not sure though.
The rules go on to say "slower riders shall be credited with their actual times"'. so I presume that means results will be in team order, but the GC standings will reflect individual rider's times. Very confusing.
The riders get their own times for GC purposes... But the whole team are given the team position. So the riders dropped from the winning team will win (and get 20 points) but they will drop down the GC.
EF team are missing one rider in the list CORT.
also Jumbo have TRATNIK and not LAPORTE
Lets see how much of a mess I can make of this competition.
