I think Le Mevel will have a nice shot at this, he has had the Vuelta as a plan B all year if he would fail in the Tour. |

1 or 2 stage wins would be a miracle by him, and if he goes for G.C., a top 15 would be the best he could aim for. Really, I don't think you should expect anything from him on the Vuelta.
On the other hand, Moncoutié will be peaking for the Vuelta and didn't ride the TDF, even if he won't go for G.C. watch him out for the KOM jersey and a couple of mountains stages wins. |

Agreed, Moncoutié will probably win the KoM classification again. |

If Menchov is in good shape, he's probably the favorite, I also like Nibali's chances. Kreuziger, Anton, Mosquera, Le Mevel going to finish Top10. |

I doubt Kreuziger will be top 10, he did the vuelta last year and did absolutely nothing. For me Mosquera is an outside chance for the podium,maybe even for the win. Other riders i expect will make the top 10 are Arroyo,Rodriguez and hopefully Løfkvist |

I'd be genuinely suprised if Anton, if he has no bad luck, doesn't manage to do a top 3 |

GC vice. I was responding to a guy who said Kreuziger would be top 10 on GC. |

Isn't C.Vandevelde instead of R. van der velde starting? I thought I read that somewhere but I don't remember where. |

Yes, the Vuelta organizers have apologized for the mistake. The list should read "C. Vande Velde"
