TDF Prologue

Chose Grivko over Larsson, and got Chavanel. Also chose Zabriskie over Lancaster, so lets see if Captain America will prove me right... Going OK so far!

I've got a couple of ideas of how this may change tomorrow, but for today...

Cancellara
Sagan
Gerrans
Chavanel
Westra
Grivko
Zabriskie
Vichot
G Izaguirre

Cav goes faster than Larsson

I'm watching live, decent coverage, but for anyone who cannot catch the race live on certain days. I HAVE to recommend the official tracker app, loving it to go along with the live coverage

Ok scratch what i said before, as Lancaster goes quickest

As i said, I'm playing purist, so had to think ahead, but still got a decent team for the prologue I HOPE

Bradley Wiggins (SKY)
Fabian Cancellara (RSN)
Luis Leon Sanchez (RAB)
Peter Sagan (LIQ)
Andriy Grivko (AST)
Giovanni Bernaudeau (EUC)
Mikel Astarloza (EUS)
Gorka Izagirre (EUS)
Kris Boeckmans (VCD)

Fabian Cancellara
Peter Sagan
Bradley Wiggins
Robert Hunter
Julien Simon
Gustav Erik Larsson
Anders Lund
David Zabriskie
Gorka Izagirre

Bring in on.

Fabian Cancellara (RSN)
Levi Leipheimer (OPQ)
Thomas Danielson (GRM)
Juan Jose Haedo (SAX)
Lieuwe Westra (VCD)
Lars Bak (LOT)
David Zabriskie (GRM)
Gustav Erik Larsson (VCD)
Giampaolo Caruso (KAT)

Here is mine, not much thought. Sagan in tommorrow plus one other then Cav for rest of week till the two lumpy stages. No Wiggo till TT, then probably out because I think he might not win any stages except TTs and still win the tour.Hesjedal will make an appearance in team at dome point plus Hoog, Sorensen and any form DS

Best of luck one...and....all

Everyone seems to be going quite TT heavy! im gonna loose out today then as my team is set up with tomorrow in mind, especially with my stars

Wiggins
Sagan
Gerrans
LL Sanchez

Larsson
Simon
Zabriske
Lancaster
Edet

Wiggins and Larsson to come out tonight

Team picked - over to you, Fabian & Peter - do me proud please!

Today and Tomorrow are the only day's i'm going to be able to watch live. So i'm going purist. I just had my team published below, but made a couple of changes with 11 minutes to go

Spartacus would look great in yellow and it would distinguish him as different to the rest of the Shack/Nissan rabble.

Could use his classics knowhow to go quite a few days as race leader....in fact whoever leads the race today has a good chance of keeping it for a while if their team 'mark' Gilbert.

I wanted Wiggins, Sagan and cancellara three, but couldn't fit them in my team and still have who else I wanted

Bernaudeau is popular then

Geraint Thomas would have been great for this!!

Wiggins
Cancellara
Sagan
Rogers
Zabriskie
Engoulvent
Simon
Izagirre
Bernaudeau

Until late last night I'd settled on having Chavanel for Cancellara and more TTing DSs but changed my mind, hopefully Spartacus will do the business today.

Looking for a good start with this lot......

Wiggins
Cancellara
Rogers
Hunter
Larsson
Zabriskie
Engoulvent
Gretsch
Grabsch

Mine is fairly predictable - mainly TT with a couple of cheap guys that I'm planning to keep in for the first few days at least...

Sagan (a given)
Cancellara (in for Brad at the last minute)
Chavanel (I just really like him. TTing is much-improved)
Rogers (needed his cheapness in order to afford...)
Zabriskie
Grivko (could've gone Larsson but thought I'd be different)
Engoulvent (Can be good in prologues, and could be OK for first few stages)
Julien Simon (Cheap - could be a good dark horse for the first week or could do nothing)
Burghardt (Just fancied a punt on him, he seems to like attacking if BMC let him)

Still fancy Wiggins to win today, very excited about his prospects for the podium...
