The first 4-5 attacks won't make it. Then everyone will be done, and an attack with 5-10 kms to go will make it.
That's how I think this will unfold right now, on the other hand, anything can change it 
And I have to say, with norwegian eyes, that Hushovd looks great, at least on the hill.

Leukemans with his usual dumb attack.
Oh look, the guy from my hometown with the same last name as mine is still there.
EDIT: It's Gilbert time!
But it's too early.

Either the bunch has a brain freeze, or they'll be caught soon.

Italy and Belgium in front. So there aren`t that many teams for making pace behind. |

They can reel this in.....simply if they do it now it costs too much energy and there will be attacks immediately following.
The idea is to wait a bit before catching them.
The brain freeze part is if they wait too long.

Pozzato plays his usual, "I'm not going to pull, because we MIGHT get caught."
He is just way too defensive. |

Here we go, then. Last lap.
This next period we are about to enter is known by the technical term "Gilbert attacking time"
Bye Cancellara

Also I haven`t seen Hagen or Sagan there.
Freire, Hushovd, Pozatto are main sprinters. |

Martens will be a great outsider for the upcoming attacks. He hasn't done anything yet, he wasn't even in "breakawaygroup." |
