I hoped that Sepulveda could have shown his talent in next Tdf. Unfortunately a slight knee injury occured. Do you expect some great show from other 'unknown' riders? For example Mendes or de la Cruz or others??? The two mentioned have to work for their chief in first place.

Like to hear some reaction.
 
Vino attacks everyone said:
Not exactly "unknown", but I belive that Kangert will have improved from last year and will challenge Porte as to who is the best mountain domestique this July

I believe that he will only be the 2nd best helper in his team. I agree that he will be strong, but Fuglsang will probably be even stronger, so I don't think he will be the best mountain domestique.
