Same as team thread only 10 riders carefully selected based on previous seasons.
Contador, Valverde, Cavendish (2) Greipel and of course Slagter, have all shown tremendous class to grind out a victory already, despite being in warmup mode.
So to praise those who do turn it up even when only at 60%, and shame those who won't, which of the heavyweights of our sport will be the last to score a victory this season (looking at Nibalis 2011 season, perhaps not even score 1 at all)
Andy Schleck did not make the list purely on the basis that everyone would vote for him rendering the thread a waste of my time.
Hejsedal did not make the list on a coin toss from Nibali, and also because I thought too many people may vote for him.
