The next leg of the Continental tour takes us into Europe for the first time, it is a mainly hilly race with the Mont Faron climb the probable highlight. A 24km TTT will open precedings.

I guess this TTT is more important than the one in Tour de Qatar due to its length.

Yes, although the winning team will still need a decent Hill guy to win overall.

I have very high ambitions for the TTT as I've brougt a very strong TT team just picked out to win that. Well actually it's not all of my best time trialists, but I should still be up there. Expect something big from Boasson Hagen in this race as we're looking to build on our great start |

It should be Casper v Nazon if any sprints happen - i think.

The being french in a french race might boost him in a weird Cya-logic way. It could boost Casper too

I reckon the thing that screws you up is bringing so many good sprinters! Seriously.
Anyway, here is the PCMdaily - Jobs.com team, in their shiny French kit:
Romain Vanderbiest
Said Haddou
Andy Flickinger
Mathieu Delarozière
Stephane Rossetto
Oliver Bonnaire
Florent Brard

this is bad news for any slight GC chances Nippo had with Bernabeau
a 24km TTT with Bernabeau as the only capable TT rider

You havent only got Bernabeu Beppu and Mottin are okay at TTs too. (Bernabeu 70, Beppu 71, Mottin 70)
But I would happily accept your money
