Contador's team is stacked as ****. If all of them are on decent shape contador will have 4 guys with the last 20,30 riders.
Kreuziger is in really good shape, he can easily top 5 if he rode for himself.
Yep, it looks very strong. You could say the same about Sky as well though - some very strong riders there. Etixx look significantly weaker than those two, so Uran could be very vulnerable if he has to try to defend the Maglia Rosa after the time trial.
I have to agree, Uran's team is much weaker, Astana on the other hand should also be very strong in the mountains.
Of course Tinkoff has a very strong team, all of them strong people and riders as Basso, Rogers and Kreuziger, who I think could be stronger even than Contador as in the Tour two years ago.
Astana has a strong team as well.
But you can understimate Etixx, thay dont have two riders to play, but Brambrilla is the best team mate you could have for the Giro, he show last year ITT how strong he is, and he is a loyal worker. De la Cruz is one of the best riders we have in Spain for the future.
There is an TTT, and I am sure Ettix will do really well despite if we see Astana: Luis Le, Cataldo, Kangert, all of them strong riders or Tinkoff: Contador, Rogers, Kreuziger, Tosatto,...and SKY: Porte Kiry or Siutsiu.
