These are excellent videos, watched them all from the first one ahead of the tour and looking forward to more - subscribed. Great strategic understanding/analysis! I was very surprised when they changed the rules this year: 1 pt for 1km in break is just insane imo. I got really lucky with my picks, currently at 26th overall in the game with the following team: Pog - obv (will probably swap him out for jacobsen for stages 5-13 for stage leader pts then back in) Remco - yellow + young rider pts, will be up there after stage 4, will get itt stage leader points. is swappable for lots of great gc guys in case he slips around stages 14-15 WvA - obv, gambled on him as my leader for stage 1, it paid off De Lie - my risky pick to save me on stage 3. it could go south but I want to come 1st not a solid 5000th :D. he looked really strong at nationals Pidcock - thought he might have a great start on stages 1+2. might survive stage 4 decently. yields young rider points. likely to be will swapped for pedersen before stage 5 Van den Broeck - my lucky pick. I just looked at procyclingstats and thought him to be massively underrated for 7 given that he can climb and is a young guy as well. also it was clear dsm would attack every non pancake flat stage in breaks Abrahamsen - like you also stated in your videos, a great aggressive rider, clearly undercosted at 7. did not expect it to go THIS well Gachinard - Lanterne rouge :D. If they're right, he might be quite valuable along the way. he can also get the odd young rider point accidently

Congrats! Great pick up with Frank VDB! What do you do now? Try to play conservatively to maintain your high standing, or aggressively trade for more breakaway riders to jump from 26th to first?? :-)

@@JoeFoxJr For now i'll enjoy the jersey points my cheap guys are earning as the number of trades is limited and its hard to predict who'll go into breaks. I'll definitely keep an eye out for stage hunters with good form for the mountains

also many in front of me have Bardet in the team. I expect to overtake them just by solid value play ;) very happy for Bardet the French fans though

damn we really fucked up by not picking abrahamsen and van der bruck. They stood out as well. Romo is also a good rider for only 7stars but i dont believe he will be in a lot of breaks, unlike abrahamsen. it is what it is tho.

Ha, yup! There will be other riders I regret not picking up soon enough, maybe today. I think the big thing will be trying to predict who will be in the most breaks

Do you put all the data yourself manually into the spreadsheet or is there a way to extract it ?
@JoeFoxJr
2 ай бұрын
There’s surely a way to extract it, but it takes about 60 seconds to do it manually once per day so I’m not ready to put the time into any sort of automation, lol! I copy paste from the website into the stage tab then the spreadsheet sums and tabulates all the data on the front page to make it look nice.

The stage winner bonus only doubles the stage points not the jersey points. Wout earned 120 stage points and 62 jersey points. (120x2)+62=302

Yeah, if I’m honest I don’t love it. It was it much more luck-based. It’s hard to play conservatively this year.
