Thank you for this great video! How would you build a racer for the three great tours? I built a 'Stage' / 'Sprinter' guy at the start but now after 3,5 years at level 30 his downhill and flat ratings are still below 70 and I think that costs me.
For a top grand tour rider I think there's really only two options. 1) Stage Racer with Time Trial (use team-mate's on protect to help with the flat/cobble/climbing support. 2) Stage Racer with Climber, this one is a little redundant - it will develop you into an elite climber sooner but in the long term is a little detrimental though could nearly assure you'll hit that super rare 85 mountain rating. A third, yet less effective method is to add Puncher as that secondary to make the most complete climber but will absolutely have to take time on climbs in order to win. Hope this helps!
@@DecathlonGamer Hey, that was fast! I'll try a Stage / Climber next, thanks! Are there any minimum ratings I should aim for? I had 84 Mountain, 81 Hill and still Pogacar could ride circles around me at the Giro. Maybe my recovery and resistance weren't high enough yet...
It's a tiny bonus. You'd have to get it five times to equal the bonus you'd receive from getting a single good result yourself. Additionally, the teammate getting a good result is often someone other than the team leader, and even if you don't spend all of your energy supporting them, if they get the result anyway you still get that tiny bonus.
i cannot order my teammate to attack when im leader, why is that? i want to start a team breakaway but it seems i have to do it with my leader as the starter of breakaway.
Leadership in game isn't automatic, and isn't necessarily over all teammates. You may have a single rider that's been assigned to support you, they'd be the only one you can command. It can also change over a race as circumstances change, for example, a sprinter may have extra support riders till the intermediate sprint is complete and then those riders are reassigned to other leaders.
@@DecathlonGamer no all of them are controllable by me. the other channel answered that you cant really ask them to sprint and breakaway. so pretty much in pro cyclist mode you have to breakaway with no teammate or if you get lucky a teammate comes with you
Early on I race them all. Over time the bonuses become limited so I quick sim more and more often. I quick sim what is opposite to my profile and would likely net little or no experience.
@@DecathlonGamer Cool, thanks so much. And also for all your video's. I try to digest them one at a time while I sink deeper and deeper into this game!
watch this video in 1:25 speed.
thank me later.
Quick tip put one point into technic on bike and you can skip the entire group at the start and go to the top.
Thank you very much for this video, it helps a lot.

@@teutbusnet8337 Resistance is the big one that would have hurt. Also learning how to conserve energy takes a lot of practice to do effectively.
@@DecathlonGamer Thanks mate!
There are benefits to gain by following the commands your teammates issues. For intance, you get a bonus if your teammates do well in the race.

Hey man! We actually do have National championship in Taiwan. The most famous one may be C.K Feng at Bahrain Merida. Or Sergio Tu at kern pharma .

How many races do you simulate or do you race them all for the bonuses?
