Well I'd love Weening winning that's for sure.

Still a long way to go. It all depends on when Contador or any other GC pretender attacks.

They have a very tight budget (the race almost disappeared a few years ago), therefore I guess there are limiting the TV relays (planes, choppers, motorbikes, etc.).

TBH it's because Volta a Catalunya is the only race hosted by the local broadcaster. They get almost no practice and it shows.

Why there isn't more investment on race that attract the best riders in the world?
