Chapter 238 - 171: Leading from Start to Finish
The coach was also somewhat worried. The strength was clear, but obviously, the rival’s overall strength was indeed stronger than theirs.
Although the captain and Patrice hadn’t put forth all their strength, similarly, they were not clear on how much strength the Solo Team had shown either.
It couldn’t be possible to expect Li Ang to continue winning first place in the next few days of the race, right? That would be underestimating the cyclists from the World Tour Racing Teams.
He was very aware that this was essentially the extent of Li Ang’s strength, and he had even performed extraordinarily, but among those top cyclists, there were still a few who had held back somewhat.
It was lucky that Li Ang stood out at the crucial moment; otherwise, if they had all reserved their strength as he said, they would have likely finished even further behind the Solo Team.
During the post-race meeting, the coach also gave encouragement to the two team members who had fallen behind in this competition. Now their performance would more significantly affect the team’s overall results.
The first three, in his view, had already performed flawlessly. In the upcoming races, they just needed to maintain such a performance.
In contrast, Loren Hanson, the manager of the Solo Team, felt slightly relieved looking at the results.
Even though Li Ang from the rival team had performed incredibly and achieved first place on the first day, their team’s overall score still maintained the lead, which already explained a lot.
Although the lead they had was very slight at the moment, it was unlikely that Li Ang would be able to perform to such a standard in the later stages, so the advantage was still theirs.
