    The GC boys will be happy to let a break go tmw to conserve their energy for what could be a very decisive ITT on Thursday.

    It’s been said elsewhere but Evans isn’t half a wily old fox. Look at him, rolling in ninth ahead of any crashes. His team deserve a lot of credit too; normally I’m slating BMC bit they’ve got their act together for the Giro

    He might just grab a win tomorrow too 😉

    Maybe Cadel has broken into
    Maybe Cadel has broken into the server to add a few seconds to the other riders’ times

    I was originally going to pick Mezgec over my usual Ferrari but in the end went Matthews as I thought he was more likely to do something tomorrow and he seems to have the better form. Only brought in Bouhanni otherwise and swapped Chicchi for a 3 rider I hope will do something later. Still got a transfer in hand and may or may not bring in a rider for the break tomorrow as I want a strong team for the TT, much more predictable than sprints with their crashes. Although penalties aren’t expensive if you’ve got table points already it’s a risk bringing in a sprinter. I swapped Uran out to afford Bouhanni but with him coming 13th it wasn’t a big profit. Glad I didn’t swap Evans though! I’ll probably drop a bit today but not too much as it’s tricky to afford Bouhanni and Nizzolo and keep all the good scoring GC riders. Ferrari again would have been the clever pick. That guy rarely crashes!

    But take that Uran for Bouhanni deal and imagine that it will cost you 10 points to swap him in for one stage (ie you buy 3 sprinters and only have 2 changes), and then you need to swap 3 sprinters back out again the next day.

    Uran would have scored 17 in finishing plus GC.

    Bouhanni scored 40 today with a win and points.

    17 + 10 penalty in + 10 penalty out = 37 points, so you have only actually made 3 points. If Bouhanni hadn’t come first then you would have lost out.
