    Looks like a much easier to predict stage than some of the last few days, flat and with a sprint finish.

    My team:

    Davis
    Bennati
    Degenkolb
    Viviani
    Steegmans
    Bouhanni
    Quintana
    Meersman
    Marczynski

    Having only made two changes over the rest day I have a full compliment of 4 ahead of the ITT where I’ll be trying to shoe-horn in Tony Martin, Froome, Contador and possibly a Clement type rider.

    Anyone see anything other than a sprint today and how much has the ITT affected your team? Have you started bringing in TTers already?

    Not done too badly, turns out I didn’t have Steegmans after all… Forgot that I’d decided to bring in Castroviejo instead so hopefully that’ll stand me in good stead tomorrow although I forgot about the hill 😕

    The first week of the tour
    The first week of the tour was fairly predictable (or would have been if there weren’t so many crashes) with lots of flat stages and sprint finishes. The next week or so (with lots of minor mountains) will be more unpredictable with more breaks going away and the likes of Moncoutie going after the mountain points.

    It may change when we get to
    It may change when we get to the big mountains, I think difference at the TdF was the field was more spread so breaks were allowed to go away with let say bigger contenders in (ie voeckler etc) and even though wiggins and froome were near the top form a fantasy point of view they wernt always winning stages therefore points were spread, however in the vuelta due to bonus seconds the main guys arnt letting anyone like a mollema or anton etc get near to winning or scoring big. As for the sprints, due to the reduced number of guys, barring a disatser its easy to think certain guys are gonna get into a least the top 10 so are gonna be picked.

    Yesterday was the first stage that was a bit more unpredictable, those that went for the full on sprint will have lost out yesterday.
