2018 FSA DS Draft League - Update 2 - Cobbles Ahead

Since last time we checked in, Tgartner's Dark Angel Velo has opened up a gap in first position, currently ahead of straw dog's Aspiring Pod Bay Entrants by over 600 points. With Valverde "cleaning up" in Catalunya and Benoot on tap to test his Belgian bonafides in the cobbled classics, I'm not sure that gap will be closed any time soon. Straw dog has achieved second through a real team effort, with 9 riders with at least 100 points. He'll be looking to get some points out of Pinot and Aru starting soon. In third place is m_m's I'm just a Formolo, and everywhere I go with, which will likely be a theme here and in the main vds game this year, Valverde leading the way. He'll be looking for Betancur to eat his donut at Gent-Wevelgem, which he will ride for Movistar after drawing the short straw.

LooseHorse won the first monument of the year, with Nibali and Demare.

Meanwhile there is a tight race for the lanterne rouge, with Kurt, Pablo, MOUA, and rubesANdbabes all in the mix.

As always, here is the link to the SPREADSHEET.
