I think this was the only stage in the whole race won by someone who didn't qualify as a young rider. Regardless of what some people have been saying about the parcours not being challenging enough to attract the big GC names, this has to be a positive by-product of that!

Bouhanni
Hofland
Degenkolb
Slagter x2
Betancur x2

Totally agree, especially on a stage-by-stage level. For GC, as much talk as there was about the unconventional parcours... the race was still won and runnered-up by two stage racing stars, and I'm not sure a mountaintop finish would have really changed the top of the leaderboard.

So close to getting all the badges. Only lantern rouge missed.
Happy with a stage win and 7th overall

Wasn't around yesterday, so was pleased this morning to see I got my full house and tenth on stage, rocketing me up 88 places to 100th for P-N, 2 places higher than last year! Well played Dux89 and Wig_Billy.

I think it would normally come down to how many transfers you have made. But seen as you both have made 14. Then if one of you has already won something, it will go to the other.

If neither has won, then yes, a coin toss it is

Are ties in single stages where two players have the same 9 ridres broken by coin toss?

Think I might have finished 2nd overall, which would be absolutely perfect because I really need a new ruscksack.  4

Thanks! JJ Rojas may not ever be able to win anything himself, but he does great working powering fantasy teams to victory with his constant top 5s! Also, I'm excited about Cyril Gautier in the future. He looks great this year. Hopefully Europcar will put him in some more WT races.

1,2,8 from the top 10 and 1 - 5 and 8 on the gc. Might be a decent score when the 11 - 20 riders are listed.

Yup, removing them all as they are announced, makes scoring much easier for people
