Greetings Managers,

We've released a new update for Pro Cycling Manager 2021 (version 1.0.3.2). In this update, we've fixed the the World & European Championships issue, added new equipments and more!

Please read the Patch Notes below to learn about its content.

Gameplay/3D Race

• Improvement of individual time-trial (ITT) gameplay: addition of "toxin" effect. When a rider empties his red energy bar, he is limited for a few seconds as he recovers energy. It is displayed as a flashing energy bar. During short time-trials, you must pay close attention to this bar. The yellow energy bar is more of a determining factor on longer time-trials.
• Improvements and corrections in team time-trials (TTT): greater team cohesion.

Pro Cyclist

• Correction of bug that prevented World and European Championships from taking place in Pro Cyclist mode.

Manager

• Correction of a problem in national team races (World and European Championships). Under certain conditions, a simulation could replace a 3D race.
• Improvements to selection of objectives by riders.
• Improvement to the function that categorises races at the start of a season (impacts on various AI decisions).
• Improvements to riders' race schedules: more control over race days, specific attributes of riders as regards hilly or cobblestone classics, better evaluation of races by the riders.
• Correction of a bug in the choice of rider objectives: non-European riders could sometimes target the European Championships.
• Improvement to the planning of breaks by trainers: no more early season breaks (January, February), better management when several objectives come one after the other.

UI

• Correction to spelling bugs in the list of trophies in the Pro Cyclist interface
• Correction of a display bug in the list of trophies when there was no national TT championship
• Correction of a display bug in Pro Cyclist mode: when there is insufficient knowledge of a team-mate, his fitness is no loner displayed in the rider pop-up
• Correction of a display bug in a rider pop-up: the rider's season results tab was not correctly displayed when on the port-race results page.
• It is no longer possible for a player to add an objective when it overlaps an already planned objective.
• Display in the following races of the rider's World and European Championships pop-up.

3D

• Update of the texture of the Movistar frame (new colouring)
• Addition of Israel Startup Nation equipment (frame, wheels, helmet).
• Addition of Trek-Segafredo equipment (frame, wheels, helmet).
• Addition of EF-Nippo equipment (frame, wheels, helmet).
• Addition of more variants for teams with generic equipment
• Adjustment of chainsets on all equipment.
• Addition of beige walls to tyres on several wheels for greater visual diversity.

Stages

• Correction to the 2020 variant of stage 5 (TT) on the Tour of Andalusia (riders blocked on launch ramp).
• Redesign of Canadian classics (Quebec, Montreal) in terms of route décor.
• Correction to a bad name for stage 16 of the Tour de France (Pas de la Case - Saint Gaudens).

Jerseys/Database

• Update of TotalEnergies team (new name and jersey).
• Update of Qhubeka-NextHash team (new name and jersey).
• Update of Movistar team (new jersey).
• Update of distinctive Tour de France 2021 jerseys.
