Re: Re:
One thing in Spain's favour at least is that a lot of the riders go well in the heat.
Agreed, it's an awful line up for this course. Presumably Valverde (if he decides to ride) will be the leader trying to snatch something if the race breaks up before the finish. With Lobato the backup option for a sprint.GP Blanco said:

As far as I can remember Nizzolo, Viviani, Bennati, Quinziato, Oss, Trentin, Sabatini and Guarnieri are pretty much sure, a few guys still have a shot at getting the 9th spot, I'm pretty sure that Cassani mentioned Puccio, Coledan and Moscon, but I can remember the other names. They didn't mention Ferrari (really underrated as a leadout man) and right now Colbrelli isn't even on the shortlist.federalski said:

Re: Re:
They could have at least chosen riders like Chavanel, Roy, Turgot and Gallopin, with Coquard instead of either Bouhanni or Demare as a leadout/reserve sprinter. France might have a cohesive team then, but with the team listed, chances are Demare will have the FDJ guys leading him out on one side and Bouhanni will have the Cofidis guys leading him out on the other. If these two cause a crash sprinting against each other (which they will almost certainly do) the French selectors only have themselves to blame.
Choosing a strong field sprinter, a leadout/smaller group sprinter and some rouleurs. Meanwhile, the French have chosen two field sprinters that hate each other, and some pack fill.Hakkapelit said:
