2012 Tour de France CQ game

[TeoSheva]

VdB is still a good choise IMO, and I can still win the bet to not take Menchov.

I called it

 

[Maaaaaaaarten]

I called it

I know I was always a bit too optimistic about Denis' chances, but I really didn't expect this

 

[Geraint Too Fast]

I called it

He's my only pick that I'm happy with.

 

[Armchair Cyclist]

Huge changes in the provisional rankings today: everyone who had chosen Evans or Menchov takes a big hit, but some huge risers as well.

[Vitapen]

I've chosen Menchov and I'm +15.

 

[HelgeBlendet]

Rolland, Pinot and VdB. Good day for me. On the other hand Larsson and Gesink are the picks I regret the most.

[vladimir]

I've chosen Menchov and I'm +15.

Beat you, I have also Menchov and I'm + 17

 

[TeoSheva]

search is my favourite now!

 

[Maaaaaaaarten]

Lol I have Menchov, Gesink and Kruijswijk in my team, and I was 11th yesterday.

Totally would've won this if Gesink and Kruijswijk hadn't crashed

If the tour finished etc etc
Not much change today, but because letour.com still had Petacchi in the points rankings when I updated last night, his scores were not lowered until today.

[Armchair Cyclist]

In the assumption that Wiggins remains in yellow for the rest of the tour, everyone who has him has 140 yellow jersey points to come. That would be bad news for Goldenboot9, our current leader, who is, other than Fool on the hill, the only competitor in the top 8 (everyone else is >200 points off the pace) that does not have Wiggins in his team. So who is best positioned to take over?

Only 4 points separate Search and Swaqser, 2nd and 3rd in the rankings: the likelihood of sprint points for Goss on Monday, Friday and in Paris seem to place the advantage with Search, and barring the collapse of JVDB, I think he will emerge victorious. Swaqser's only other chance of making the top of the podium would seem to be mountain wins, and moves higher up the top 10 on GC, from Rolland and Brajkovic. Hunta will be hoping to see Nibali overhaul Froome to improve his position: Hilltop and I wishing for the same for Evans.

But basically, Search's second behind Goldenboot9 at the moment looks like the second places of Roche in 1986, Lemond in 1990, or Evans in 2011, on the eve of the final timetrial.

Thankfully, that farce was not the grand finale, but if it were:

Those who have Evans have taken a big hit: now very much a two horse race, but for reasons mentioned a few days ago, search is hot favourite, even if he is not in virtual yellow.

I should get some kind of award for selecting two dopers ... yes I do have both of them: De Gregorio and Frank Schleck

You seem almost certain of the lanterne rouge in the game, if that counts...

 

[TeoSheva]

I should be still able to reach the top10

 

[Armchair Cyclist]

3 stages left, let's assume that Wiggins gets 2x20 points for yellow jersey, 80 points for winning the time trial, and in so doing moves up one place above EBH in the points ranking (15 points rather than 10 for 5th in that ranking). Let's assume also that Goss gets, a 3rd and a 5th in the remaining sprint stages (35+15 points). That's 125 for search in the attempt to overhaul Goldenboot's 76 point advantage.

Goldenboot9 would then need 50 points to retain his lead. He could reasonably hope for Froome to repeat his 2nd place in the TT, which would be exactly 50 points, and for TJVG to either get a top ten on that stage, or maybe even overhaul VDB in the overall, to make up for potential GC drops by Rolland or Izagirre against the clock.

I think I've changed my mind: Goldenboot9 to hang on to his lead... just.

I must say, I didn't have a look at the standings for a couple of days and I didn't expect my team to be that good. But now...go for it guys, Vino to win in Paris

Goss did perhaps slightly better than expected today, to the benefit of search. I suspect that if Wiggins wins tomorrow's stage, Search will take it: if Froome prevails in the TT, then Goldenboot9 should hang on...

[Armchair Cyclist]

Search to sip champagne on his morning ride tomorrow. Goldenboot9 would need 2nd place tomorrow, and hope that Goss is outside the top 10, (or 1st and Goss be no better than 4th), but his best sprinter is, ermmm, Van Den Brouck, or Izagirre... (in fairness, all his sprinting eggs were in Kittel's basket).
