Evans and Nibbles will have a go on the final descent.
Expect to see Sky on the front, but not really pushing.
Today is a chance for BMC and Liquigas to show how good they are as teams alongside sky.
Should be a breakaway, want it to be Voeckler or another Frenchman

If they try to do something its going to be the same situation as in the Dauphine. Team Sky is way to strong and will do a Mountain Team Time Trial Tomorrow. No chances for Evans and Nibbles. They had a chance Today in a terrain were Wiggo it supose to bee weak and look what happend....... |

Big break of ex favourites today. I'm not sure that Sky will be able to control the pace today with this many climbs.

LL Sanchez to win from a break of former GC favourites. Unless Nibali and Evans attack, in which case I go with what I said yesterday, but minus the Froome winning. |

I wouldnt be surprised if there is a breakaway that size. I would be surprised if Txurruka was in it!!!

It's always dangerous to go too fast. |

There won't be a break. SkyII (Garmin) will control the race so SkyI can win.
