Sprint with 0 power left
Yesterdays stage of ZLM 16 o´clock.
Kees was in a group and reached 0 power 2 km before the finish line.
I put the sprint settings on follow.
Final sprint: he followed (was shown) in the sprinttableau than he couldnt keep up with the other (fresh) guys.
perhaps just a "Anzeige" bug? or should we call it a new feature?
Dont get a screen, BUT Kees starts today with 540 (reg 54). if a screen is needed, let me know.

Re: Sprint with 0 power left
20 energy would be enough to initiate a sprint.
And i see in the code, that it could be possible, that the rider would follow although he has too few energy. But after that he would nto have any chance.
Do you see any problems with this anyway? Or is there a bigger bug (that such a weak rider can win)?

problem is: the weak rider couldnt win; BUT he can block all others ....
in this case he wasnt simple weak, he was dead
today at De Kustpjl a group of 6 riders were ahead of the peloton:
Wout Achtergaele and Felix Colsaerts were used as pullers and finally out of power.
today no intermediates on the road, so i set the sprint in the beginning of the stage ... for securing not to forgot it .... happened to often.
wout was surely on 0, when the sprint starts .... well of course i got no screenshot to prove that.
well, as you can see Wout sprints and took the wheel which Rastas rider ( Chris McCallum) wanted to take.
this is .... shit.
after the sprint starts Wout wasnt able to keep up and gets droped ... so McCallum have to use a lot of his remaining power to get in front again.
so he gets no chance to fight for the win.
so please make sure that it isnt possible to sprint with a dead rider and block other guys.

Re: Sprint with 0 power left
Actually here there is also another problem...
I used to think that in the positioning also the energy has an important part...
How is possible that a rider with no energy is in front of a rider with energy (even if low)? Especially because the km was a 0 flat,and chris has more sprint.
The only possible/logical answer is that Chris was following Wout

Re: Sprint with 0 power left
McCallum followed Wout, right? Following one of the other riders in front would be better. When Wout drop, he would passing him automatically.

No he was following paul.Buhmann wrote:McCallum followed Wout, right? Following one of the other riders in front would be better. When Wout drop, he would passing him automatically.
