@bridgy dirt results are up- zwiftpower actually had ours bang on

@mjd1988 can you have a look at the rider classifications on the DRS website for Cat B+ Koppenberg and compare the finishing points with the finishing positions on Zwiftpower here - https://zwiftpower.com/events.php?zid=3075832 - for me?

I want to check I'm not being really stupid or something, but the finishing positions on ZP and DRS seem to only have a vague resemblance to each other! Out of the top 10 for example it looks like only me and the guy in 4th have been given the correct finishing points. The guy in 6th on ZP seems to have been DQ'd but that doesn't explain the anomolies.

I'm not talking about the overall points including sprint points, just the finishing points in teh "FIN" column....

The finishing positions on zwiftpower are the points total including sprint points though? So even though - so if you look at the person that finished 3rd on zwiftpower his time is actually minus 0.042 seconds, meaning his finishing time was better but his cumulative points tota is lower. Is that what you mean?

Ah, right so I was being stupid then - glad I checked!! I didn't realise the finishing order on ZP was also based on the cumulative sprint + finishing position points, I thought it was the finishing positons on the road.

I was further confused by the DQ'd rider which put everyone up a position on DRS but hasn't altered finishing position points so all those below him are slightly out too (but I guess they made the decision not to alter the points after someone is DQ'd which is fair enough).

Thanks for putting me right!

It's fantastic that there are options for talent to be found. Imagine not so long ago, a talented sportsmen could have been easily missed due to limited avenues. I was discussing who were the contenders for the Vuelta. I thought Roglic was a strong contender, but no way as dominant folk think he is. Yates, Carapaz, and Evenepoel were touted. Early suggestions is Evenepoel is capable. Can he hang on though?

He was favourite before Roglic confirmed which is kind of mad for a first(?) grand tour. So talented but we will know a lot more about him after this edition. Was the type of climb that suits him, wonder if he would have caught vine if mas wasn't wheelsucking. Ayuso is some prospect as well. Lots of racing to be done

Another 'next big thing' IMHO. For his sake, I hope he doesn't win.
