Don't get too excited, the starting field is extremely weak.

Should I name the guys that are NOT here?
4 guys don't make a strong field.
@Guido: you blaim me of being a blatant chauvnist.
But if you say the field is strong here, you have absolutely no right to speak and are just as chauvinistic yourself

The field in Switzerland is so much stronger. How can anyone even argue against that?
Even in the second level of riders, they're almost all in Switzerland. Zabriskie, Hesjedal, Lövkvist, Efimkin, Gerdemann, ´Sánchez, Gilbert all the sprinters......I could go on all day.

Many of the names you mentioned aren't going to be in Switzerland. Evans, Basso, Nibali, Vinokourov.

The discussion isn't Dauphiné vs Suisse, but whether the Dauphiné field is strong or not. And it's definitely not. |

But it's impossible to separate, as the quality of the field at the Dauphiné depends on the quality of the field in Switzerland

Even if Tour de Suisse has better riders this year, the Dauphine isn`t that weak and there is a lot of suspense.

Not many more than here...

Boubbox: Just to be sure ... are you really arguing that the field of Dauphine is as strong as the one in Suisse? |

Nope I am saying it is strong enough to say a 1-2 french is very impressive.

Navarro! Big move for Contador later today or is he free to try win the stage for himself?

He's not too bothered/not in great form.
