3:36 you can't rely on the "maintain position" button in the finale of a race. It doesn't automatically responds to attacks. So any attack will drop you, no matter how insignificant it is. It's better to use the "relay" button on a very low number. Then you won't take the lead either because of the low number, but you won't automatically give up the moment somebody attacks
Just use relay on your rider when you don't want him to drop from the breakaway. You just set relay on 55 effort or something low and he will follow the group he is in but stay will at the back of that group.
Yea missed this comment when I made mine. The one thing to watch out for is if an attack goes (usually because everyone’s pissed you’re not contributing) your rider will not follow and ride at 55 :)
@@Justintanega usually the other bteakaway riders only attack later in the race, or on sprint or KOM points so normally you know if and when they are going to attack you
Benji, you better start using the Pause button while playing breakway and peloton otherwise you ruin your changes everytime 😂It seems like you've been panicking every time
Yeah, I don’t even know how you attempt to do it without the pause button. I spam that thing like crazy when I have breakaway and peloton action to deal with. You should definitely use it more. It will prevent things like sky has getting dropped. Since you just had him on only 85 maintain position the group probably accelerated for someone’s attack and he just didn’t follow because his max was 85.
Why dont you set the breakaway riders on automatic when you are not looking? Also, could have gotten way more time with steinhauser if you just relayed at the front?
It's funny to see how you panick man! Like they say here, use the pause button, relay... and manage your hydration en use of enerygel 😅 nice vid man, as an long time PCM fan (since CM3), NCL member and someone who wrote stories of my carreers, its a joy to watch you!
If i was the camera I would have overheated too with all the action on that stage 😂 Definitely would not be disappointed with how race is going. Up against stronger teams and GC contenders and you have 2 riders in top 5. Another year of development and either a marquee signing or a couple of strong mountain domestiques and I think you'll easily be among the favourites.
Would have been better to put Steinhauser to relay (but put it to a level where he never actually contributes) that way he would have followed the strong pace on the last climb… wouldn’t mean he’d follow actual attacks though

@@Justintanega That's also true if you are on hold position, so being set to relay is still better.

Randomly found this while not listed. My favourite series on yt, keep it up
Steinhauser was just being polite and waited for the camera to be elsewhere while he took a TomDom Giro break.

To be fair, Steinhauser dropping there was a joke. 😂
It does add to the drama of things though. Does make me chuckle
@@williamknight7907 Yes, that race was full of drama ahaha

Possible to play this on a Mac?
Another notification another good video
How did Martinez abandon and then get second in stage 16?
Just had to not follow the mountain point attackers and you would have gained a minute I think
Time for some Brenner breaks
You're probably right, was a bit too eager to get over the big climb in Group 1 with Steinhauser and it burned a lot of energy.
Rembe mode is the best mode ❤
Another epidode 😊
Just sim the TTs.
Just start using the pause button
very unlucky with Brenner man
pause the game mate
You know what else is massive tho?
Stage 13 sprint lol
Fiorelli must really dislike you
