My preview of today's stage. Could be for a punchy sprinter, or one of the climbers if the race gets split up. |

I think TdF stage win number 5 for Sagan today...either that or his 14th 2nd place! Not sure I'd get good odds on that prediction  |

Solid pick if he shows that Dubai form. Sounds fired up too, apparently he was very vocal with his displeasure at the finish of yesterday's stage. |

You make some nice previews I think. Although I am not agreeing with you that Kwiatkowski is likely today. I would rather say Stybar. He is on form it seems - More so than Kwiatek anyway, and Kwiatkowski is likely to stay and keep Tony and Uran out of trouble.
Also you mention Albasini as a favorite, but he is not starting the race. And you miss spelled Le Havre in the first sentence.

On the topic of Kwiatkowski, he has done a surprising amount of work for the team so far this tour. Think he might get a chance today, or on Stage 8. |

He might have been working for his teammates in the couple of stages but he just isn't in form, his TT in the first stage is proof enough that he just isn't going well. I hope he can turn it around as its always nice seeing the current WC doing well in the Tour but it won't be today.

Yes, I'd agree, perhaps building form as he rides but if he was in top condition you really would've expected a crack at the TT or up the Huy (with others deployed to shepherd Martin beforehand) - think it's more the case he doesn't have the form so he's on full on domestique duties. Hopefully things will change as we enter week 2+. |

I would say that working for his teammates instead of being allowed to go on stages like that one finishing on Huy is actually a nice indicator of his form. He is bad, at least was in recent weeks and first stages of Tour and his usual strenght...
Edit: basically what you said in recent response to Strydz.

Random Voeckler moment, looking to bridge to the break after the sprint point...

Don't think Sagan will win today, more the likes of Kwiatkowski or Valverde? |

is Voeckler so old now that he can't win mountain stages anymore?. can't even make it to the breakaway. 
Quemeneur looking like a proper teammate

Could be the most embarrassing Voeckler attack ever 
He might reach the break 30 seconds before the bunch?

He doesnt stand a chance winning a proper mountainstage, he only was able to win those kinda stages 2011-2012. His best chances are the stage between the Pyrenees and Alps and maybe the Saint Jean de Maurienne-stage |
