Besides, it was always impossible for Hoste to sweep the cobbles, since he's not riding the E3 Prijs Harelbeke.
Why? Criterium Internatioinal?

Why not. If i am not mistaken Hoste has an excellent TT stat and decent hill stat. He could not only win the TT in CI but he migh take the overall.

That is a beautiful sight.
Money well spent.
And yeah, Hoste for CI because of his TT skills, hill skills, and because SN put the idea in my head.

Yup, I was willing to sacrifice Wiggins' chances so that Hammond could have a better chance at E3 Prijs.

Hoste would probably have won E3, but will run into mazzanti, Astarloza, Uran, Moerenhout, Pasamontes an co. in France. They will probably take some time in hills, along with others, but Wiggo still has a shot for the stage.

Im quietly confident for Wiggo. He performed brilliantly in California so maybe he will do it again in France. Winning the TT is the goal though.
