Rest day 1 was yesterday, but I promised some numbers, so I'll do some quickly...
(and then CN was not letting m open pages this morning, so it is even later...)

So basically only one remotely popular pick is showing with any consistency here, Caleb Ewan. I have asterisked those who have a rare pick in this list if they also have Ewan.

If I were to rank each team's guaranteed points each day, and then apply the daily position points, we would have a lot of ties, and therefore a lot of decimals, and a table like this:
1 LightBing 346.22
2 Koronin 231.86

This is rather experimental, and might never be seen again: it is the last tab in the spreadsheet "Guaranteed Green".
Green points
Because this is based on the nett daily change of each team, it is meaningless to give rider scores. Discussion at CN suggests that there is a preference for returning to the guaranteed points. I will keep this going for this edition (it might be eventually considered an oddity like the 1906-12 tours decided by points rather than accumulated time), but we will have some kind of !vote after the tour, before the Vuelta to see what people prefer.
But, in the tradition of Mastermind, I have started so I'll finish, and in stage 10 we finally got every team onto the scoreboard.

Only 4 teams have suffered a DNF so far, three with Van Garderen and one with De Marchi.
To a large extent, it has been expensive riders getting big points: there are no very effective barcgains. The only riders (with >20 points) who are on course for a return of more than 25% are

Despite his humble position in the table, Comodoro merits a mention for having all 8 of his riders doing more than the 20 point minimum.
Numbers galore
