    Stuck with my team from
    Stuck with my team from yesterday.

    Greipel
    Kittel
    Van Poppel
    Kwiatkowski
    Chavanel
    Gerrans
    Bonnet
    Palacios
    Mederel

    Basically three sprinters, three guaranteed points guys and three cheap picks. Assuming Cav wins Kwia, Chava and Gerrans will probably pick up a combined 38 points. Couldn’t justify bringing in Cav today for the sake of some of those points so left it as was. Will surely drop ground today in the overall but will have 6 transfers for Saturday.

    I was cautious yesterday and
    I was cautious yesterday and only had 2 sprinters, so have brought in 2 more today. Cav won in Montpellier before (was it only last year?) so I have skilfully managed to not get him in. Had to choose between Greipel and Kittel, or Cav and someone less than 15 credits.

    So these guys will be my team for today and hopefully tomorrow, with 4+1 penalty for Ax3D (yuck).

    Sagan
    Kristoff
    Greipel
    Kittel
    Gerrans
    Hoogerland
    Le Mevel
    Muravyev
    El Fares

    I saw Millar struggling on
    I saw Millar struggling on the mini non-classified climb…..I kept him in yesterday thinking there might be a heroic reaction to missing out on yellow in the TTT but it seems he reacted the other way.

    I’ve taken him out today along with EBH and Kwiatkowski despite their positions in the jersey competitions(6 and 12 points respectively) for Kittel,Cav and Impey who should all score well at both the intermediate sprint,finish line and green jersey pts.

    This lot go into the stage in 134th place.

    Cav
    Kittel
    Impey
    Gerrans
    Navardauskas
    Hoogerland
    Terpstra
    Gasparotto
    Fischer

    2 transfers sitting in the bank….going to want at least 4 for Ax 3 Domaines…..my favourite stage finish last year.
