Yellow for a day.

Jeremy Roy.

6 escapes and 700 km out front on his own, in 2011. Some people would call that a worthy effort, but the fact is he failed to win. What can i say, nice try but no cigar or yellow jersey.

Next.

 

[will10]

Geraint Thomas as a warmup for his 2016 Tour win.

 

[MellowJohnny]

If he can make it I'd like to see Andriy Grivko.

Also Chavenel and Kristoff (though Kristoff would have to beat MC in Corisca)

 

[Roderick]

Cav to take yellow in the first stage, taken over by Phil the next day. Then EBH after the TTT, who will pass it on to Titi after the first stage in the mountains. Titi will wear it for a week until Il Piccolo Principe takes it over and brings it safe to Paris

 

[Pippo_San]

Yep Il Piccolo Principe in yellow would be incredible

And what about old man Matteo Tosatto? Amazing.

 

[akrogirl]

It has to be Cav for me.

 

[Archibald]

not for this year, but definately Stuey in his final Tour next year.

for this year, I'd like to see Anton or Nieve - or pretty much any Euskaltel rider... Martinez...
and perhaps Renshaw for a day in the sun

of the 'nots', that'd be voeckler because of the hype that'd go with it, and valverde for clinical reasons

 

[Australia]

Richie Porte... preferably by a minute over the Froome-Dawg... I wonder what would happen???

 

[nick101]

I'd like to see schleck in yellow because it'd do wonders for his confidence after the struggles he's been through, and it'd prove to people that he's a serious threat.
Apart from that i'd like to see someone in the twilight of their career receive the yellow jersey because it'd make a good farewell or final last memory. Someone like Kloden, evans (although he has several years left imo) or O'Grady. Especially O'Grady

 

[ElChingon]

Would be best if every stage we'd get a new Yellow Jersey wearer till the end and none of them past wearers or rated contenders

 

[phanatic]

I think this is a good year for Greipel to take the first yellow.

 

[theyoungest]

Since apparently Vacansoleil are planning to bring Danny van Poppel, who will then be at age 19 the youngest rider in the Tour since WWII, I hope he gets to wear yellow at some point.

u can wake up now

 

[del1962]

Someone who has never worn it before (which rules out Jens, TV, Cadel and AS amongst others), (hopefully one of my fellow countrmen will where it first and another last) but in between Dan Martin. I also would be happy for Kittel to wear it or Sagan or Tony Martin.

 

[del1962]

Others I would not mind wearing the jersey are VDB or Gesink

 

[all_in]

Anton or Cunego in yellow would be something special.Also a frenchie like Voeckler,Fedrigo or Casar will be good.

VDB with his style will not wear ever yellow jersey.

 

[Euskaltel!]

Dan Martin, although he'd look pretty good in Polka dot too!

 

[theyoungest]

Dan Martin, although he'd look pretty good in Polka dot too!

'Looking good' is relative, in his case

 

[jaylew]

Someone who hasn't worn it? Flecha, Terpstra, or Purito.

 

[Hugo87]

Purito,Costa and Sagan.

Someone like Hansen or Hoogerland would be nice too, but less probable.

 

[Viking]

Someone who hasn't worn it? Flecha, Terpstra, or Purito.

I want to see Purito in yellow on the Champs-Élysées. Any other day would be good as well, I suppose.

 

[Winterfold]

Cav

And then Richie Porte, so Froome gets to understand what a tool he was last year

 

[Broth3r]

Anything's better than Cav in yellow. It's the yellow we're talking about here, people. You sure you'd be comfortable with seeingthe very flag of the TdF fall on a 4th cat?

As for myself, Cunego, certainly. I don't know why, but he just feels like the sort of chap who'd be able to pull a Voeckler if he saw himself in yellow - though I guess that's not really "for a day", is it. I'd say O'Grady, then.

Kittel in yellow? I hope you're not serious on the Cav part... he's actually shown himself to be more than 'just' a sprinter. And the yellow jersey is the only prize his palmarès lacks.
