No, I'm not aware of a young rider competition.
Also, there are officially two sprint jerseys, one for intermediate sprints and one for finishing positions. Only the intermediate sprint standings are being scored as this is consistent with previous runnings and also the Volta Catalunya.
Just to double check- are there no young rider points for this one?
It was actually the KoM standings points missing, an update is processing.
Shouldn't Txurruka have 40pts
5pts KOM lead
5pts sprints lead(we were told that would be scored)
4pts sprint 1
6pts sprint 2
4pts mountain 1
3pts mountain 2
4pts mountain 3
6pts mountain 4
3pts mountain 5
Ok. Sorry, bad luck.
Ratto was one I picked, plus Impey, Gilbert and Geschke. Also picked Albasini over Gerrans.
Guess who got some points today. Andy Schleck scored a whole 3 points, he's clearly on the road to recovery...
On another note, my day didn't go well, my punt on sprinters didn't go well and left me well behind, I should have played it safe and stuck the climbers. Oh well, there's always tomorrow.
Yes. I noticed that. Intermediate sprint! Did think about him for purist, but got one other cheap rider who's not even in the race now.
Which sprinters did you take a punt on? There are only two in the race Gerrans and Impey. That would've worked well.
6,8,15,20 for my standard and 8,11,15,20 for purist.
Sorry 161st Silin (Ast) point for my purist
19 Gibert
20 Clarke
21 Pineau
22 Talansky
149th, presumably LR to Cummings
That would be handy for my purist team, but that would mean 15 non-finishers
Diariovaso is giving it to Gilbert
and maybe 19 for me as well if that's right.
Agreed that it looked like Gilbert, Im just going off what the results said. Guess we shall find out soon
PCS say Clarke then Talansky but Eurosport had that pretty cool finish line camera shot so maybe its still being all 'worked out'?
Enjoyed seeing Samu and Cunego fly downhill to almost catch the front group......I had envisaged them doing that for the actual 1-2.
PCS have updated now, Gilbert 19th, Clarke 20th
Never min TER you don't know who got the Lantern Rouge yet!
1,8,9,14 & 18. Could be worse. No Txurruka though
Good start for ray silvester!
1,2 plus 5 for impey
As well as gavazzi 4th and spilak.
9th overall aint bad, and if only id picked amets as my basque wildcard...
1st,5th,8th,18th,19th + Txurruka
that's not too bad
5,7,14,20 standard
8,9,14,18,20 purist
+5 team points for Impey in both teams
19th Clarke
20th Talansky
looked like the rainbow jersey 19th to me?
4,6,7,18 for me
oh dear, shocking for my team
