Purist 1,2,3,10 - Standard 2,3,12

Went for Gerrans and Gilbert as I thought that last climb was only 1km long - careless!

Definitely looks like a couple of penalties tomorrow...

Boo - no-one in the break - Villella was the only one I even vaguely considered.

Posted my purist in the 'purist' thread....and a bit surprised at the lack of interest in 'Der Panzerwagon' in purist teams.....I think he's an outside bet for the overall IF he can get up and over Alto de Usartza within 2 minutes of the leaders?

I toyed with it but the problem is exactly as you mention ....I can't see him being close enough to the leaders who will be climbers and most can put a decent TT together on a hilly one which this is ....still be good to keep an eye on him

I think the pole can beat him in the TT TBH and may not be the only one.

Not if there's anything on it.......I think Malori's beaten Tony this season but not many others over a proper distance.....I'd have picked Kwia over Valverde and possibly Tejay over Rui if there were youth points awarded though.

Two 3rds and a 4th this season for Tony in ITT's, now they were shorter distances and he may be just starting to run into form but hardly convincing when you consider he won the T.A. ITT over 9 kilometers last year.
