Right now Froome and Wiggins are the biggest candidates for 1st and 2nd place
In your opinion who do you think will get in the last step of the podium?
 
What with all the DB chopping & changing with One or Two leaders thing: IMO there is a doubt (clinic talk, not here) about Dawg - and DB wants to have a backup TdF contender (Sir Brad) on hand in case Froome has to be dropped at the last minute. Of course this would have to happen just before the Tour not during.

Froome is a better climber than Wiggins, and the best he could do after already racing 1 GT was a 4th. The Giro is much harder than the Tour was last year, no way Wiggins will podium.

Contador, valverde, and Purito are the main contenders for the rest of the podium if Froome takes first.

Agreed. Assuming Froome wins, Contador takes 2nd, and I pick Valverde for 3rd. But I'll be cheering for Purito to miraculously win.

Jrod will be third....

behind Froome and Contador.

If Wiggo gets a top 10 he should be happy, if yesterday was indicative of the way they'll ride this Giro.

No way Sky goes 1-2 this year - Contador will blow things apart, and then J-Rod & Valverde will pick up the pieces.

This poll sucks big time
Title is misleading and force W and F 1/2 on everyone's face, it is just plain stupid.

If Wiggins had been available for a 3rd place choice - he would get my vote. As it is I voted "other"

Because, of course, the man I have in mind to win is not Wiggo or Froome ;)

My pick is Wiggins. Even if sky do look like the favorites to win I doubt they will take 1/2 with the field this year.
