At the moment it is raining in France's Dauphine region. And it looks like to continue that way. It will certainly affect the prologue and the starting times may play important role.
Hope you like the preview of the race.

This is going to be hard to predict a winner. If Brajkovic doesn't want to have the best form for The Tour, then I think he has the best chance. |

I betted my PCM $ on Evans. He is definitely a candidate for the win if his shape is right.

Just built the prologue on bikeroutetoaster and it's alot less flat then it looks in the profile above. But I think there should be some really fast times if the course dries up as it's mostly downhill after the 800m mark without alot of sharp turns. |

Lot of mountain in the Dauphine this year , is it always the case ?
Evans has great chances to win , wheelsuck + TT = Win for Evans  |

I always forget. Sounds nicer with 'Libere' though
You'd expect fast times today, but they won't that fast. It's pouring rain and riders will take caution rather than fall acidently. Wiggo should be favourite with his shape to win prologue.
Freitas: Brajkovic said he is not going to this race to win here but have a steady build up to the Tour where he is going to be Shack's leader according to their DS.

It totally does. And I feel the same way with the Het Volk.
On today's stage, I can see a Wiggo v Martin v Boom v Westra fight for the win. Should be interesting. |

Lemoine leading, and it just started raining pretty hard. He may have just lucked his way into a win and a jersey.

I suppose that the race starts so early because of Roland Garros.? |

Geraint Thomas just said he took it easy on the corners and didn't risk anything today. Much depends on weather now.

i went for MArtin for the stage, and Gesink for the overall (he's a better climber than Evans imo)
of course, watch Gesink fall now |

Martin already went. His time was very poor.
EDIT: LL Sánchez has also posted a fantastic 45th best time. Clearly the signing of the season

45th for LL Sanchez. What a miserable season for him so far.
