I believe it might be Cannondale, despite the fact it's my favouirte team. I'm not sure where their first win could come from this season. They have plenty of good riders, but Dan Martin is the only one who tends to get plenty of wins each season and he is not in good form early this year.
Also, Vaughters managed to get rid of the sprinters of both Garmin and Cannondale. Viviani: gone. Farrar: gone. Von Hoff: gone. Sagan: gone (obviously).

Slagter had some injury trouble, I believe. Moser is a winner though.

I've gone with Garmin-Cannondale. Their GC guys and climbers always start the season slowly and they don't have a sprinter.

What Moser are we talking about here? :confused:

Looks like Guardini will line up in Tour de Langkawi (starts 8th March). Good chance to grab a win, but its still a month out.

Anyway lots of races coming up in the next few weeks.

The guy with 5 wins, among which a WT stage race, in his rookie season?

Hasn't won a race in two years though. It's hard to call him a winner at this point. He's got a decent start of the season in Australia, I'll give you that, but I'd be surprised if he gets Garmin first win of the year.

So the big favorite (mine as well) Lampre can be taken off the list.

Does a rider winning a national championship count?

Well Jumbo is gonna win anyway.

Lotto have rarely any winners. Maybe van Asbroek, but even that is a test on WT level.
Van Asbroeck isn't a winner. He had just 2 wins last year, not much for a sprinter who hardly rides WT races.

Hofland is a more obvious pick, but even he doesn't win that often.
