Oh ok, that maybe explains why Kittel won with 2 bike lengths. I would still not be surprised to see Kittel absolute dominate the sprints this year tho. He seems super motivated and was an animal in Qatar. |

In my opinion, this year will a "threesome" with Greipel, Cav and Kittel. I just hope Greipel wins always

Why is Katusha allowed to ride in this awful red jersey with a big K. Their jerseys never looked good in the first place but that's a new record. It's bad enough with their bad rep and doping issues but that's a fashion crime!!

because said alpha sprinter didn't want to stay at Giant.

Exactly.
No idea what exactly happened but I am quite sure that Kittel at Giant wouldn`t have done very well in 2016 due to their problems in between.
But if they had kept him anyway, they would have needed to pay a big cheque.
Obviously he is a big loss but sometimes things just don`t work for some reason. |

He would probably still be ridiculously close at winning with those rules.  |

Just tuned in for Andalucia: Wellens and Valverde attack in descent with 10 km to go whilst Sioutsou is still ahead.

Valverde tried his best but it was a bunch sprint at the end, and Bouhanni gets the win at Andalucia, Cordoba.

Looks like we are going to have a Big season of sprinting judging by the early season results  |
