    Unrelated question, if Swift
    Unrelated question, if Swift can’t win stages against generally not the best opposition out there (watch him go any win today) will Sky bother to keep him in their grand tour teams? A plan B is always useful to have if plan A (Froome in this case) doesn’t work out but if Swift can’t win stages is he worth having in there at all?

    If he’s not worth picking, do Sky need to go out and find a top class sprinter for next year who can work without a lead-out (assuming they’ll lose Cavendish)?.

    Damn. I was mixed at taking Viviani in. My other change was going to be Anacona out for Smukulis….he’s in the break, but not many points to be earned out there today

    I thought Swift was worth a go for the same reasons but I’m the man who took Contador AND Tiralongo out yesterday.

    Gilbert
    Swift(for DeGendt)
    Degenkolb(for J-Rod)
    Valverde

    Rodriguez (guaranteed 17
    Rodriguez (guaranteed 17 points today, more than both Contador (14) and Valverde (15))
    Degenkolb
    Bennati (very nearly went Swift as Sky will want a stage win)
    Viviani

    Steegmans
    Lodewyck
    Meersman
    Cardoso
    Talansky

    Hoping for a good result to move me back up the table but not expecting overly much, fingers crossed that both Davis and Swift do poorly today.
