Expected, they have no business in MSRMayomaniac said:Lotto Soudal will be all about Greipel, Benoot and Wellens aren't even on the startlist.
I wouldn't mind that at all, but it's probably gonna rain, so it's gonna be an epic Spilak solo win.wheresmybrakes said:Steve cummings to attack with about 50k to go and ride off into the sunset.![]()

That wouldn't really stop Modolo from winning...

Obviously highly unlikely, but a Gilbert win would be great for the sport IMO, adding additional interest to P-R as he would be going for the full set.
Jagartrott said:Another chance he has is from an attack in the last 1500 m, if the favourites don't have team-mates and start looking at each other. That's in fact likely his best chance of winning here. He doesn't have the explosiveness anymore to make the difference on the Poggio, and he doesn't have the sprint to win in a smaller group. He'll have to play it smart and be very lucky.
