Cool videos.

I've been having some problems with the sprinting. In your "Greipel vs Cavendish" video it works the way it's supposed to. Do you tap the X button repeatedly throughout the sprint, or do you just tap till the effort bar is at its max and then hold X for the rest of the sprint?

It was the AI sprinting there .. but .. i have recorded a video from my first Tour De France where i got second with Hushoved

But as you see i have put it on the high gear and max out the energy - And you need to hold you behind the rider you want to win over .. (I didnt win here but it was close - but who can beat cavendish )

But Max out on low gear and make sure to hold you behind your helper or the rider you want to sprint against in the final sprint - Make sure Red bar is full and Yellow also or at least have yellow left.

Then when the final 200-300 meters change gear to the high so the RED speed bar come and if you du that with a full yellow bar you should be able to start sprint at max speed and make sure to hold your self behind the sprint opponent until at least 50-100 meters depending who you are.

But that sprint you saw was actually with Cancellera, but i think i manege the sprint really good.

By the way 3 more videos is coming up tomorrow and then i record from the stage 9 where the favourites are make there point.

Ah, thank you. Just tried it and won a sprint stage with Cavendish.

My problem before was that I switched to high gear way too soon and, as a result, used too much of the red bar too early.
