Giro prediction was partly correct, so I’ll go with this hahaha
 
It took some time, but finally I was able to upgrade the prediction 2018 table.

Giro tips were not so bad comparing the classics 167,5 points out of 544 possible.

Giro: 1 Dumoulin, 2. Poels/Thomas 3. Superman
Tour: 1. Nibali, 2. Quintana 3. Porte
Vuelta: 1. Froome 2. Landa 3. Valverde

Strade: Kia
Sanremo: Gaviria
Ronde: GVA
PR: Sagan
Liege: Alla
Lombardia: Uran
Worlds: Valverde
Worlds ITT: Dumoulin

From 01-feb only Sagan PR and 3rd Superman...

.... and still you are in the third place :)

Predictions from the beginning of the year have 2 times more points that prediction before the race. End even if you do not present the prediction before the race I consider your original prediction also as pre-race prediction.

Sagan 2 + 1 / Lopez 2+1 / Dumoulin 1 + 0,5 Total 7,5

Everything is still very open: FOR TDF anybody can get 9 points
 
Pinot collapse in the last alpine stage ruined my prediction for the Giro, otherwise i would have picked the right three in the right order already on 31st of january!
Anyway i'll wait this weekend national championship for the pre race prediction of the Tour.
 
My preseason Tour picks: Landa, Valverde, Bardet

My picks now:
Nibali
Bardet
Fuglsang

My reason for changing is I'm not convinced that Landa and Quintana aren't more interested in beating each other than they are about their rivals. As far my boy, well he's well off his top form although he could very well end up in the top 10 of the final GC.

Alla saved me...
 
I was waiting to see Nibali but since yesterday gave up with the peloton I didn't want to risk keeping him on the podium (as I predicted this winter) and I'll go with:

1. Porte
2. Fuglsang
3. Thomas

Reserve for 3rd (in case all Sky will be forced out) Roglič.
