2013 World Championships Firenze. Who will win?

[The Hitch]

The most exciting worlds course since Boyacá,

Who will win

I know there are plenty of guys i left out. People who are on giro tour schedules especially.

Edit: lol what an idiot. I added Schleck in before Rodriguez facepalm)

 

[Netserk]

Wouldn't it also make sense to vote by country :S

I vote for Nibali/Italy.

I dont care for nationality. I care which rider wins the race not where they were born/who they represent.

And besides 2 of the stone cold favourites are from the same country.

 

[Netserk]

Valverde/Purito?

or

The Colombians?

And yet one of the choices in the poll is "Quintana/Betancur/Henao/Uran"?

Because the forum only gives 10 options.
On this years form cant leave out Quintana, Betancur or Henao and Uran's the dude who almost won the olympics.

In hindsight maybe Schleck and Contador could have made way.

Gesink was on my original list of 9

I was willing to take some heat for it as well cos i honestly think he can win.

But then i remembered hes doing Giro AND Tour so unless he crashes in the tour again i dont know if he can reach another peak 8 weeks later.

 

[Wallenquist]

Nibali, Valverde, Henao

 

[Froome19]

One of the Colombians

Don't forget Cancellara. The rest of his season will be all about this one. Wouldn't surprise me at all if he shows up here lighter than ever, climbing alongside the pure climbers and destroying them in the finale.

I agree, 2009-Mendrisio-Cancellara could win this.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

The floodgates will be open. Everybody are welcome.

This man will attack and stay away for a solo win:

 

[Cavendash]

Gilbert to defend it.

 

[SafeBet]

Will probably be Nibbles best shot at the WC in his career.


I want to believe.

Should suit Mollema better. But actually I hope Poels gets back to his form. He would be Holland's best pick then imo.

That little climb, Via Salviati, could very likely be Fabian's springboard to victory.

Poels is overrated in the classics. He has never done anything in them. Might as well mention Slagter.

You're both forgetting the best Dutch rider of the moment.

pellizotti or one of the colombians

1.Sagan

That thing is really steep. More like Rodriguez (or Dan Martin )

 

[Netserk]

pellizotti or one of the colombians

Do you think Di Luca will start?

 

[l.Harm]

Poels is overrated in the classics. He has never done anything in them. Might as well mention Slagter.

And what has Slagter shown in classics then

But Poels never came into the hilly classics in top form imo. But maybe you're right about this.

I think that'll be Via Trento. Although it might be too short (150m)
