Ullrich in his 2003 form a domestique for Bradley Wiggins in his 2012 form??

I'd go for:

Paolo Bettini (2006)
Johan Museeuw (2002)
Philippe Gilbert (2011)
Cancellara (2010)
Boonen (2010)
Valverde (2008)
Van Petegem (2003)
Ballan (2012)

When aiming for classic glory.

And for GT's i'll just choose the 2001 USPostal tour team.

Yeah, obviously if I was being rational Wiggins wouldn't be the leader, but he's been my favourite TDF champion of the 2000-2013 period. Not based on pure GC winning capabilities.
