Giro di Lombardia: Who is going to win it?

[miguelvazpinto]

We are saddly reaching the season´s twillight. The last of the five monuments will give us plenty of entertainment. Who´s gonna win it?

 

[The Hitch]

I think Boomcies poll from the ZLM Tour, would have been more accurate

Who will win.
1 Gilbert
2 Someone else

I think Bauke Mollema could win this sending a few posters into wild celebrations.

My prediction though is

1 Gilbert
2 Mollema
3 Uran.

 

[Swede1]

wheres Uran? and Pozzato?........

 

[Eshnar]

If he's in shape, no one will beat Gilbert.

 

[woodenswan]

Rui Costa?! seriously?
i'll go with Uran.

 

[miguelvazpinto]

wheres Uran? and Pozzato?........

Forum´s poll tool has a maximum of ten options. Those 9 riders are who I considerer most but of course Uran, Pozzato, Lovkvist, Basso, Voeckler, etc are important possibilities. The ones in the poll are my top favourites.

 

[Kvinto]

Rui Costa is still much better pick than Pozzato

 

[miguelvazpinto]

Rui Costa?! seriously?
i'll go with Uran.

Why not? We won one of the canadian´s classics and as we discussed in another thread, most people who have participated agreed that he is a rising star Besides that, he is one of the 9 named options because he is portuguese, just like me

 

[sublimit]

A poll for who comes second is better.
This race is more predictable than the Beijing ITT.

 

[will10]

No it's not.

I don't think Gilbert will win, and would like to see Visconti do so but suspect it will be Mollema or Uran.

 

[Moncoutie]

Sanchez hopefully, though I'd imagine Uran or Mollema would be more likely. Anyone apart from Gilbert would be a nice change!

 

[trevim]

I'm also portuguese but Rui Costa doesn't belong in that pool. Maybe some day.

 

[just some guy]

also Gerrans is not riding read that somewhere so he can´t win

 

[boomcie]

I can understand some people are doubting Gilbert for this race, as I myself am not convinced he's going to be super strong either. But who's going to beat him?

Uran, Mollema? Humor me.

Exactly. He's so superior to everyone else at the moment that even when he's off form its hards to see who can top him. Hopefully the big teams will try and make it really hard for him as early as possible. But even then.....

I´ve picked the riders according to this http://www.cyclingnews.com/giro-di-lombardia/start-list and Gerrans is one of Sky´s riders to Giro di Lombardia.

 

[Jux1893]

My vote goes to Rui Costa.

It may be wishful thinking, but I can't vote any other way.

 

[Zam_Olyas]

do we really need to vote? lol

 

[Havetts]

Gilbert, but if the stars align and Gilbert doesnt leave everyone behind my bet would be TGBM.

 

[BroDeal]

My man Cunego will win the last real Lombardia before it gets turned into a summer race.

 

[Nick C.]

I'll go for Sanchez.

 

[Kvinto]

Wout Poels ftw

 

[just some guy]

Roche if Gilbert doesn´t of course

 

[meat puppet]

voted for samu, but think uran will feature as well.
