[Escarabajo]

Caleb Ewan winning the ITT would definitely be a surprise!

And Tom Domoulin winning a sprint stage.

 

[BlueRoads]

And Tom Domoulin winning a sprint stage.

It really was a mistake, I was not that bold.
I edited it...

[HelloDolly]

It is not that they are not giving breakaways a chance. They are just playing the spreads and odds. We all know there will be breakaways, we just don't know who, and when it will be successful.

Then what about Sagan because as almost indefinite winner of green surely he has a better chance at stage wins than anyone if you wants to reduce the odds.


Talking about stages seems alot of not so long ago GC riders are now riding for stages ...this is where alot of the action could be this year

We have Bardet, Allphillipe,Dan Martin, Adam Yates, Esteban Chaves ,Piere Rolland, ..I'm not sure about Porte /Molema as different media quoting differently

What about Movistar ...they surely are not riding for GC ???

Movistar will ride for neither GC nor stage wins. They'll be riding for a top 15

 

[SHAD0W93]

Movistar will ride for neither GC nor stage wins. They'll be riding for a top 15

And team classification!

 

[Koronin]

And team classification!

Although depending on how things work that could end up with multiple combinations of riders in breaks who if they have any form may end up trying to get stage wins by luck.

I wonder how this one will be treated if Dayer wins.

Lol yes. And if you were to say Bennett and by some miracle George won, would that count? Lol but Dayer winning is more likely.

 

[Broccolidwarf]

I WILL CLOSE FOR ENTRIES, ONCE THE RACE IS UNDERWAY TOMORROW.

 

[Anderis]

Call the stage winner for each stage, 1 point per correct guess.

Tiebreakers for the overall score:
Most different stage winners called
Latest stage with a winner called
Most different teams called as winners
You share the win.

How about right riders guessed on a wrong day as a tie-breaker?

This has a surprisingly high ratio of high-profile riders as for RNG- you could end up beating half of the player base if only you were able to switch some riders to better suiting days, like for example, switch Viviani and Carapaz around.

What? You don't think Viviani could win a mountain stage? Ye of little faith!
