    Well, if the race is anything like last year there may be very (!) few DSs that score in the top 20 (!). Ben Hermans is the only current DS I can see that scored any significant points last year. He came in 7th. Bram Tankink came in 19th and Fabian Wegmann 20th.

    Looks like disappointing
    Looks like disappointing results all round today.

    I wonder how many people who signed up and picked a team at the start of the Tour Down Under and havnt logged on again since then will have scored more today than those of us in this thread who spent the last week researching riders and painstakingly building a team.
    :p

    A whopping 6 points. 5 for Kiserlovski being in the same team as Gasparatto, 1 for Gerrans. Should have stuck with Sagan.

    That’s my lowest ever score! By a long way. Very difficult race to predict for sure. At least I have a nice bottle of Albariño and roast chicken for supper to console myself with.

    Puts me 14 points closer in the Classics comp then 😉

    However I think I will have suffered a heavy fall from 12th when Dave has done the points :”(

    Just Wegmann and Gerrans for me 🙁
    took Vanendert out for cunego being the only change i made recently, so that one is frustrating. Especially considering Cunego looked like he would have top 10….@ arsene, youve got say Cunego was unlucky, on the shot it looked like got took out from behind, and as said looked good to at least top 10

    Problem is going forward with the team I have 😕

    Sagan, Moreno and Rojas were my star guys i left out, Glad i stuck with Gilbert though

    Vanendert, Iglinsky and Devenyns are also names on my list of 26 riders i picked from

    At least Gilbert and Mollema grabbed me some points, seems i might move up if others 0’s and 1’s are anything to go by 😉

    31 points… but considering I had Vanendert, Wegmann & Nocentini in my team at various points before today, it feels much worse. 🙁

    I scored zero.

    Don’t know whether to laugh or cry.

    Mind you, proves what I said in the preview – it’s a very difficult race to predict 😉
