WORLDS ITT
The most open ITT I can remember with no Wiggins,Cancellara,Froome,Evans etc.
Martin's form not the best and the course is not really the best for him but class is permanent or can Contador recover after his Vuelta exploits?I doubt anyone will have both with the quality DS' involved.
At least 2 and probably 3 of Chavanel,Kessiakoff,Pinotti and Tejay will most likely be in all teams and that may well be where the scoring splits occur.
Velits may be worth a go? Are we getting 5pt team-mate bonuses for trade teams?
Then the plethora of high priced DS' all with good claims to place highly.
Phinney is always a threat
Larsson may find it too lumpy
Westra will like the terrain and have home advantage
Meyer may be t-o-o-o expensive
Grabsch can destroy anyone on his day
Gretsch rounds out a good German team
Tuft took the ENECO ITT
Castroviejo is in ahead of some other decent Spanish TT'ers so must be in form
Plus a couple of real secret weapons with the right research.
Anyone looking at anyone outside of those mentioned?

As its based on nation rather then team should the 2 person from a team not be replaced with 2 from a nation, or would that be just too difficult and pointless at this late stage.
I don't know if there are any +5's in the ITT, for the worlds it is based on nation, not trade team
Contador is a possibility, I think he will defo be top 10 could be top 5 but how high remains to be seen.
ive got two teams atm
one with martin and one without
Basically will Martin, Tuft and Chitouri (something like that)
outscore
Velits, Meyer and Gretsch
Chavanel, Phinney, Larsson and Westra have not been considered for my team, mainly due to cost compared to similar riders that could do just as well based on form etc
