    Can I just put a dampener on things by saying that the forecast for Lombardy and Liguria on Sunday is heavy rain.

    Have to agree, we should
    Have to agree, we should still score it, this was unpredictable and to be fair nobody really should gain an advantage unless they specifically picked a team hoping for half the stage to be snowed off. If they did that then fair play to them, that’s a hell of a risk to take. If half the field crash we’d score it, this stuff happens.

    No one can say how the race will play out, the climbers and strong men will go hell for leather up any climb to drop the sprinters so anything could happen.

    The have cut the heart out and made it like two stages now.

    SHITE race now and I think 0 points all round is the fairest way. If I had thought this would happen, make picks would have been totally different

    keep the scores its a fun game and its a bit petty to make it a zero score stage when technically the race is still running and has a winner.

    its unfortunate and im sure we are all going to loose points in it but the end of the day its fun.

    Cipressa is going to be very important now, which it hasn’t been recently. Sprinters in with a better chance but the cold and rain don’t suit them that much! The favourites are still the favourites, but Cav and Greipel could easily top ten. Degenkolb could do well I hope. If a race isn’t cancelled scoring must go ahead. I would have thought Gkam84 would be happy; he’s got someone in the break and maybe the unthinkable will happen and the break will stay out.

    I don’t agree GKam. Its the luck of the draw….if there is a finish and a winner than so be it….we can’t expect sunshine every day. . .
    and my standard team has no sprinters and no one in the break, so i am not going to benefit from scoring as usual.

    I hope so. He was my second pick after Sagan. Having got burnt in Roma Maxima by not having him I wasn’t going to make the same mistake twice.

    My line is its luck of the draw, and also because Le maine has been missed out still doesn’t mean it will be a sprint and whoever will win will win. Scoring should go ahead

    Scoring should go ahead regardless.

    Its got to be a hard man today.

    And they don’t come much harder than Cancellara.

    They have taken out nearly 100km now with some of the major parts of the race being cut. Its totally turned the race upside down….

    Don’t agree. It’s cycling. Weird shit happens – you just have to live with it, unless they cancel the rest of the race.

    Dropping Le Manie should help my sprint-y purist team. Could be less good for my standard though. 85km to pull back 7’10” – not much time to cruise along there then.
