Problem with the Vuelta is that it is difficult to be sure of the form of riders unlike Giro or TDF for which there are specific preparatory races. Also a lot of the riders take it easy before the race.
Those who did good at the Giro may find lack of motivation to go thru hard training again- Quintana, Uran, Aru
Those who did good at the TDF need resting and may not be in form at the start- Pinot, Valverde
Those who did bad at the TDF cannot sustain TDF form for 3 months- Froome, Contador, Talansky
Only those who did bad at the Giro have something to prove- Purito, Martin
Which leads up to an exciting race:D

Race wide open...

Top 6 in between 2.15

One bad day, one moment of weakness, one miscalculation, one moment of inattentiveness.... Can be a game changer...

One week to go, and everything can happen.

Hype on, i'd say!!!
