Almeida grows as does Mas, Bilbao and Kuss do badly


Almeida grows as does Mas, Bilbao and Kuss do badly

The Itzulia won by Joao Almeida has created numerous changes to the riders' odds on the Fantacycling app.
Obviously Almeida goes up three fantamillions to 37 but he is not the only one since Maximilian Schachmann, third on the final podium and back to good levels after years of anonymity. The German earns 3 fantamillions.
Enric Mas, second, increases by 2 fantamillions together with Florian Lipowitz, fourth in the race.
Ilan Van Wilder, Alex Aranburu, Simone Velasco, Clement Champoussin, Clement Berthet and Guillaume Martin will cost 1 million more.
Big names among the flops: Aleksandr Vlasov was the worst (-2), Brandon McNulty, Daniel Martinez, Pello Bilbao, Maxim Van Gils, Sepp Kuss, Marc Hirschi, Julian Alaphilippe and Wilco Kelderman also did badly.
