Yeah, Aru getting top5 is unlikely.
If I had to guess a top 10, maybe:
1. Quintana
2. Purito
3. Evans
4. Pozzovivo
5. Uran
6. Scarponi
7. Majka
8. Cunego
9. Kiserlovski
10. Niemiec
Lots of guys could be picked for the second half though. Basso, Hesjedal or Dan Martin, Roche, Rolland, Aru, Duarte, Kelderman, Moreno, even Arredondo, idk... there's really a lot of guys with potential to fight for a top10. |

Very good, Tinkoff, Katusha and Movistar very close together. Shouldn't be too much difference in weather, wind etc then.

This race will be the launching pad of a future Giro dominator imo his name is Fabio Aru, i think he will wrestle leadership from Scarponi. I hope Purito wins as Quintana has time on his side i also hope but dont have faith Evans will be on podium sure he was great in Trentino but last few GT's he is not good in final week.
Would not mind seeing Pozzovivo on the podium either. We can dream but i think i could live without Purito winning if Basso done well i mean who does not like Basso and if he is in Vuelta form last year he can defo top 5.
I hope no stage is cancelled, weather wrecked the Giro last year. The TDF was more exciting and i always prefer the Giro usually as a spectacle. |

Guys who does Quintana have as ITT riders in his team. Is Malori, Dowsett and Castrovejo all here? If they are then Quintana will surely take alot of time compared to other rivals. Also what about Spilak will he lead TDF or they all here to Help Purito? |

What retards would call Boonen or Cavendish most useful riders in a TTT teams, they're sprinters after all (and a cobbler for Boonen) ? |

Wow chill with the retard comment i only asked if the Itt were taking part in Movistar which will help of course i do no in TT it is about seconds and not minutes dude dont worry about that. Im pretty sure guys i mentioned would do better in a TTT than guys like Rojas Ventoso or Lobato hence why i asked if they were taking part? |

I assume deek is, he's from Belfast IIRC. Steve Smink can watch the sprint stage in Dublin too. And then there's me, sitting at home in Germany, wondering why I'm not there.
