Update

There are still 7 teams who remain without a victory so far this season:

BMC
Radioshack-Nissan
Euskaltel
Astana
AG2R
Lampre-ISD
Rabobank


41 wins have been collected in total by the other 11 WT teams but it's notable that 30 of those wins have been shared between just four teams (OPQS, Liquigas, Lotto, Sky).

Are we not going to count the two Contador stage wins in San Luis for the purposes of this thread?

Is that right?

Scratch Saxo. I didn't include them in the poll because Conti already won 2 stages. For all intends and purposes, Saxo already has victories.

Nick Nuyens will be world champion :p

Although technically that wouldn't be a Saxo win.

Erm, Karsten Kroon to win AGR? :D

Well, Saxo might not be a WT team soon, so even if you strip their wins, they might be out of the poll anyway.

Can' we just forget about the TDU and put Greenedge in?

Personally, I wouldn't count an overall (certainly in something like the TDU) as a 'win' per se.

Its not as though you get the chance to cross the line with your arms in the air ;)

You don't? Actually, riders usually cross the line celebrating when they've successfully defended the yellow jersey on the last stage...

Nope.

Just personal opinion obviously!

No, it's a fact that riders usually celebrate when defending the yellow jersey. I'm not sure how you can argue against that. Unless you think Wiggins won this stage, for example.
