Wiggle - San Pellegrino happy and raring to go for some Italian prestige, and hoping for the illusive British jersey (though quite how that would happen is anyones guess!)
If possible, two Italian teams for Wiggle.
Will San Marino be run within Italian champs too? Or with a bunch of other races like last season?
EDIT: And being the numpty that I am, I posted before Auber was talked about...
Two French teams for Auber if possible too.

San Marino is more likely to go within the Minor Europe champs again - since I doubt there will be space for any San Marino free agents in the Italian Champs.

Team Festina is ready for the Nat champs :-)
I would like to have 2 spanish teams, but as I only have 4 spanish riders, I guess it would be overkill, so I'll stick with one (Sammy Sánchez, Alberto Contador, Carlos Castaño and Angel Madrazo - Some strong riders, so I have hopes for something good).
If I only have one rider, but the rider stands a decent shot at winning will he be alone or can you request a couple of FA's as helpers?
I have Mauricio Ardila for Colombia, I guess he would be a good bet for atleast top 5, but as he's alone I guess he won't win... Same goes for Diego Ulissi and Sam Bewley btw.

I don't think there are any teams with 2 riders from New Zeeland, so you should have a very good shot at winning that

Yeah OK, but I have both Ardila and Ulissi alone. Both should have a respectable shot at doing something on the right day...

I doubt Ulissi will win (commentators blessing there perhaps?), as the Italian champs are so insanely packed with awesome riders. Ginanni I'd reckon will win. |

Theres a perfect time of the season for acquiring free agents of a certain nationality, that can then help out one of your team leaders in the national championships.
Its called the transfer season.
And rjc, as fenian would vouch, Ginanni never wins anything

Pokerstars.com, of course
just for curiosity, is it possible to find race profiles, are they the same every year?

Ginanni has made a pact with the devil and will win only the Giro di Lombardia this year.  |

And hello again. |

I also doubt that he will win, but he did win 2 stages of the Giro... I assume the road race could look a bit like those stages he won, so I wouldn't rule him out entirely.

The Italian route is more Lombardia like.
By that I mean, its 4 laps of the closing stages of Lombardia. Just ignore the fact that the closing stages of Lombardia starts and ends in a different place
