I just changed a risky rider. Horner out for me now. A shame on me if he is RadioShack`s leader.

My problem is obvious, having Schlecks from Leopard and Leipheimer & Horner from Radioshack, it should turn out horrible
Guess I'll have to hope that either Horner or Leipheimer gets yellow after the TTT, that can hopefully give me some of the points they will loose in the mountains, compared to other riders |

Biggest problem were the two climbers. With Contador and Andy there was not much cap left. But Kiryienka should be a solid points collector and Coppel is of course a big questionmark.
Rojas in my eyes a big favourite for the green jersey as also a big one for the first stage. Gilbert also for the hard finishes.
Kern, Voeckler and Dumoulin for attacks.
Especially I was surprised that Kern wasn`t in several teams as he rode a great Dauphinee and French championships. I don`t expect a top 10 of him, but with 2-3 attacks he could get a nice top15-20 and a stage win and good results in general.
At first I had C.A.Sörensen and Horner but changed them a few minutes ago. |

Going with strong climbers this Tour. I had Contador + Schleck combo, but thinking that Gesink and JVB will cost almsot the same and both combined would score more points in GC overall and daily hopefully. Tony Martin is the risky one, though I hope he will get yrllow in the TTT, and that will give him points from daily GC and some good results in mountains and the TT should make him ok deal.
Hope that Hushovd-Farrar relationship in the flats will work out and depending on that in the sprints. Horner personally is a steal of the game, and looks like Radioshack leader from the recent article about him on the CyclingNews.
Two breakway riders. I really hope Igantiev will show his Russian Jersey a lot and will try to get stage win. Almsot everybody has Gilbert, so no surprise.

On Contador vs Schleck, I think Contador will win, and in either case, is more likely to have better stage placings. Cavendish was also a no-brainer, the amount of points he could score if he gets multiple stage wins - Gilbert too, considering the price.
I wanted Gesink too, so Leipheimer were the cheaper options, and flling the squad with Thomas, Kadri, and Roux - 2 points for Roux is decent, since he was 2nd in the French Champs.

Forgot Still he is very good breakaway rider and I hope some good Top 10 and maybe even stage win anyway, with or without the jersey. |

We had some similar team there before I changed it... Instead of Kern I had Horner, and instead of Dumoulin I had El Fares.
Anyway, here's my team:
Andy SCHLECK [24] LEO
Ryder HESJEDAL [12] GRM
Robert GESINK [16] RAB
Samuel SANCHEZ [20] EUS
Jose Joaquin ROJAS [6] MOV
Thomas VOECKLER [6] EUC
Philippe GILBERT [8] OLO
Chris HORNER [6] RSH
Kevin DE WEERT [2] QST
I really hope Hesjedal doesn't screw up. The same with Horner. Otherwise, I like the team. Hopefuly De Weert will try a breakaway too. |

4 sprinters and Gilbert.This is all I need.There are lots of stages where these guys could contest the sprint, not necessarily for the win, but for the minor places too.
For the GC I opted for A.Schleck.He will get approximately the same amount of points as AC but costed 6 points less.The other GC guy is Gesink who I hope will catch the top3.
Team Target:
-Take the first yellow jersey
-Finish top10 in the Final Classification |

Here's my team:
Andy SCHLECK [24] | LEO | | Ryder HESJEDAL [12] | GRM | | Robert GESINK [16] | RAB | | Fränk SCHLECK [16] | LEO | | Jose Joaquin ROJAS [6] | MOV | | Philippe GILBERT [8] | OLO | | Chris HORNER [6] | RSH | | Denis GALIMZYANOV [4] | KAT | | Nicolas ROCHE [8] | ALM |
I think Contador will be too tired after the very hard Giro. The Giro-Tour double is too hard, even for him. Schleck came close last year and will move up one step overall this year.
Hesjedal better repeat his great overall result from last year, or I'm cooked.
Gesink and F.Schleck looks like solid podium contenders according to me.
Rojas has a good chance to win the green jersey and is also a good pick for the flat stages with uphill finishes, like stage 1.
Gilbert is a must to have in the team. He will be unbeatable on the uphill finishes and might also be a contender for the green jersey.
Horner is capable of a Top 5 according to himself, but he should be able to get a Top 10. For only 6 points, I see him as a bargain.
Galimzyanov has a great season behind him and will hopefully continue it like that in the Tour. He will at least show that he's worth his 4 points.
Roche is another Top 10 contender and should also do well on the uphill finishes.

Sorry for doubleposting, but, I have to say that Waghlon's team looks really strong. They will be the ones to beat.
