These two teams have zero wins this season, so who will be first to break the duck, and if so, who and where?

Vote away.

When did Euskaltel win a race? Did i miss that? I probably did so forgive me if i'm wrong. But if they did was it Sanchez?

On the BMC - OPL thing. I don't know. Maybe Gilbert might win in the Ardennes.

Sanchez won a stage of Pais-Vasco (the one where Horner complained the spanish riders worked together). Not sure if that was their first though.

As for the original question... Iit seems more like a "who will win first... Evans or Gilbert" rather then which team will win. I haven't seen much that would lead me to think anyone else is in contention aside from a lucky breakaway.

I'll go with Evans and BMC right now.

You would think this is Gilberts race.but as i have quoted lotto will F*ck up in a spectacular way....Kroon will ride of into the sunset with no-one on his wheel....BMC=1st win
Kroon has been targeting this race for a longtime.

I am going to use your thinking, Evans or bmc to win every race!:D

I think he has a good chance but don't want to jinx him. Evans needs to do a ride like Andy Schleck did in Amstel last year for Kroon.

Yes, going to be harder for saxo to control this year in liege. The were able to work in large numbers to win. This year they don't have that luxury. Evans to ride solo on la redoute to victory? Supposedly on evans' twitter, he said their are caravans on the route already.
