for me Peter Sagan, if not in 2nd, than in 3d stage definately. By the way, given his statement that, they were training ttt specifically to be able to hold the yellow jersey in 4th stage, am I the only one that suspects he wants to attack whole peloton on the descent to Calvi? From the map, it doesn't look too technical, however I was in Corsica last year, and the maps tend to be very deceiving in this matter. My reasoning is, that they cannot be so out of this world in cannondale to think they would beat mainly OPQ and SKY in TTT, which would mean sagan counts with some time difference on riders of these teams before the TTT. And that would mean him attacking on that particular descent. Are there any good descenders in SKY and OPQ, or maybe also in other team that will probably finish in front of Cannondale in TTT?

I honestly hope something like that happens. Would be a similar situation as 2009 with armstrong and contador. If that happened it could catch sky and froome out. Add in prestigious descenders like evans and gilbert, contador and a few gc riders, and that would be sky's worst nightmare and my dream :D

Heavy rain can add some "value" to these 2 stages. ;)

Heavy rain in corsica in start of the july, wow, that would be something, but nowadays, the weather seems not to behave according to what it "should", so it might happen :), although it is very unlikely
