    Yep, it’s the Pick Three Frenchmen comp, for the Tour de Yorkshire (and France).

    THE RULES: You need to pick three French riders for 50 credits or less and the team with the highest combined fantasy score at the end of the race wins. Only riders making it to the end of the race count; any of your riders quit mid race, they get no points.

    The winner will receive the special prize of my very warmest wishes. :H

    Your teams:

    Joelsim: Demare Pinot Voeckler

    Past it. By about 3 years.

    Maybe in real-life, but in fantasy terms even last year he scored a LOT of points. It wasn’t unreasonable to expect the same this year, not least because his team were essentially invited to the Tour because he was team leader. I think the problem was that there were hardly any MM stages (like 11+12, which looked tailor-made Chava breakaway material) where the peloton were comfortable letting an escape get away. Maybe things would’ve been different had Sagan won on stage six or seven.

    IAM were a bit disappointing on the whole though. They did get in some breaks but I can’t recall them really ‘animating’, as they say, in the way that NetApp did. Perhaps Chava was a bit of an albatross; maybe next time they’ll concentrate on getting a GC top ten/stage win with someone like Frank or even Wyss?

    Vichot abandons.

    Vachon scored some points yesterday though. Molard in the break today, as are Kadri & Feillu (B).

    No prizes for guessing that the top two have Coquard, who has scored 188 points on his own so far. Bardet, Kadri, Peraud, Pinot, Gallopin & Gerard have all looked good too in terms of points-per-credit. Less so Rolland, Riblon, Jeannesson, Roy & Vichot, while Molard, Simon & Vachon are yet to score a single point.

    Plenty of time yet, though. Strikingly, not a single withdrawal so far.
