Ooops can a mod correct.

Thought it might be on purpose as a joke, since there is an English speaking commentary who actually pronounces his name like that (cant remember who but heard it in Amstel a lot) :D

I was gonna say Rui Costa, but then I realized he's already a minute behind Contador, Kreuziger, Mollema. Which might just be enough.

Based on current form, I'd say Kreuziger. None of them are super time trialists though.

You forgot to include Kwiatkowski in the poll. He could very well make up 2 minutes on Valverde in a 30 k flat TT. He already did so in the Dauphiné.

Option 10, I wanted to have places 2-10 in poll.

It will be as we have all predicted a a couple of months ago. Wiggins to leapfrog over Froome and take the yellow jersey, setting up a leadership crisis within Team Sky which will keep us entertained for the rest of the Tour.











wait... what did you say happened to wiggins?

Yeah, but someone like Dan Martin isn't going to jump to 2nd, so you might as well have excluded him. Or Purito, for that matter.

Gut instinct tells me Rui Costa, although the second TT might favour him more.

Who time time trials better, Rui Costa or Peter Velits?
Velits in the first TT and Costa in the second?

Ye I know, just trying to figure out who to choose for my manager team :p
I figure Velits is more of a flat TT specialist, but Costa has more incentive to ride fast as he's well placed in the GC?

Wouldn't surprise me if Movistar were 2nd, 3rd and 4th after the TT. Voted Mollema though.

Valverde, as long as he keeps it somewhat together in the TT.

Otherwise Kwiatkowski. Contador and Kreuziger will drop several places.
