Think the stage profile may suit GC riders better than Classic riders. In saying that expect someone well down GC to win this stage - It could even be a breakaway 30 or 40kms from the finish - Many teams will keep their powder dry for the TT.
Possible that one of the yates brothers will target this stage.

Re: Re:
Your joking, evans was à mediocre rider who happened to get lucky one year. Froome is arguably the best stage race rider of all time, and definitly the best or the last 5 years. Evans isnt close.BigMac said:

valverde to finally open his account at this years tour
sagan will be saving for an all out assault in the ttt

Re: Re:
You could have just been someone who misunderstood my post, as I meant Froome doesn't come close to Cadel on this sort of terrain. But you decided to take it one step further and claim Froome to be the best stage racer of all time. I don't know what to make of that.Ramon Koran said:

I also like Dan Martin for this one. Been a lousy TDF for Cannondale except for his late sprint up the Mur. 2nd Sagan (duh!) 3rd Jrod

Evans palmarès: 1tdf (fluke), 2 2nd places plus 1 fluked wc.
Froome:1 tdf, soon to be 2, 2 2nd place vuelta, 1 2nd place tour ( he should have won).
Coming back to the mur de Bretagne, Froome is a more explosive rider (mur de huy) than Evans he will be far stronger.

Froome is more explosive than Evans? I'd like to see Froome win Fleche Wallone or the World as Evans did.
