    I’m starting to develop an irrational hatred of Rabottini for all the time I’ve wasted with him in my team. At least he might get 5 points today.

    If i was a betting man i would take you on at that !

    I like Nibali but just got this gut feeling he might come a cropper. There are to many riders for different teams who are there or thereabouts for his team and himself to control.

    Personally if Wiggins doesn’t win, which i dont think he will, i would like to see a Sky lad win followed by Nibs. However my money is on Santambrogio.

    In case you were expecting
    In case you were expecting Uran to take over the leadership from now on I don’t think it’ll happen just yet, this is a quote from him:

    ”Henao and I are here working for the team. We’ve already shown that we are men who are willing to work for the team,” said Uran, whose contract with Sky expires at the end of the season. “We are not Froome, so we’ll just see what happens day by day. We knew our roles from the start of the race.”

If Scarponi, Santambrogio, Gesink, Betancur, Pozzovivo & Uran all start attacking in the last week (after Astana have been leading the peloton for a full week) then I think Astana won’t be able to handle it and I think someone will make up huge time on Nibali.

    I also think Sky will focus days that suit Wiggins more and look to blow Astana apart on those days giving both Wiggins and Uran a chance to capitalise.

    The best price that you can get on Nibali to win is 1/4 on….So its fair to say that the bookies are with me on this one…..He is in the form of his life….The only way he loses is if his bike breaks……because his legs won’t….. :)

    Similar was said last year for the TdF and Sky blew him and his team apart.
