Cort Neilsen is definitely the favourite amongst the low value riders - I have him on mine too.

I've put Pirazzi in because you need an Italian don't you?

The scores from yesterday don't appear to reflect the white jersey or points classifications. They are listed on the official site.

Malori first!

Then Braendle, Oss and Sagan!

Sergent may scrape top 20

My worst result last year so I've spent far too long on this to not make the same mistake this year. Looking at how the stages change from day to day I could have used up double the amount of transfers.

Cancellara
Malori
Sergent
Sagan
Navardauskas
Cort Nielsen
Cano Ardila
Avila

Purist (which in the cold light of day looks like a mistake):
Contador
Uran
Sagan
Navardauskas
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrmay
Pibernik
Cort
Cano

Hepburn is going to bloody win today now isn't he?

Mods - Can we have Cort Nielsen addressed as Cort in the game? Same with Michael Valgren. Even if their road licences say differently

Can we also change Valverde to Piti please?

Glad to see I'm not the only one with Navardauskas! Hepburn has put in a poor time already.

Picked my team purely for stage 2 onwards as the ITT is only 4 mile so we might get some decent times by the fast men.
So my standard team is

Mark Cavendish
Elia Viviani
Sam Bennett
Nikias Arndt
Sacha Modolo
Nicola Ruffoni
Magnus Cort Nielsen
Stefano Pirazzi

Purist
Nikias Arndt
Mark Cavendish
Elia Viviani
Mikel Nieve
Bauke Mollema
Sam Bennett
Jorge Castiblanco
Jose Joao Pimenta Costa Mendes

My Purist

JESSE SERGENT (TFR)
PETER SAGAN (TSB)
FABIAN CANCELLARA (TFR)
RAMUNAS NAVARDAUSKAS (TCG)
TSGABU GEBREMARYAM GRRMAY (LAM)
MAGNUS CORT NIELSEN (OGE)
DANIEL MARTIN (TCG)
FERNANDO PEDRAZA MORALES (COL)

Could be awful. But it looks like there are only 2 stages for the sprinters, 2 & 6, and I figured the ITT guys have two stages plus the first one which may lead to GC points up until stage 5 when the climbers take over. Stages 3 and 4 look like they are for the puncheurs.

So after lots of tooing and frooing, I'm pretty happy with my team.
Not sure what condition Cavendish is in, so left him out of my Purist, and lots of people to choose from in the mountains, so just gone with Contador, was gonna go with Nieve as well, but plumped for Ruffoni for the sprints instead. We will see.

Standard

Malori
Sergent
Cancellara
Sagan
Viviani
Bernaudeau
Catiblanco
Flens

Purist

Contador
Cancellara
Modolo
Viviani
Ruffoni
Meintjes
Bernaudeau
Pibernik
