Navardauskas is going to win this stage. 100%
Forgot about him for my Velogames team, but I've given up on that already anyway. 
He was pacing the whole day and now is dropped  |

The stage isn't tough enough for Izagirres/Pozzovivo, who is he pacing for? :/

It's the same as BMC last year in the TDF  |

I still maintain that they would've done better with Navardauskas.

Nice to see Ewan defending himself on uphill sprints, seems to have prepared himself good for these kind of ones. |

Seems that Olimpic Gold medal transformed Viviani, now He is a very solid rider

It might just be that he's left Sky who are useless at sprinting.
What happened to Griepel? Nowhere in the top 20.

Greipel said after todays stage that he normally can handle the heat quite well.
Today though he just was too exhausted in the end and didn`t have the legs. |

Viviani was very strong for Sky aswell in the autumn classics. But yeah, will definitely get some better opportunities with QS. But damn, Viviani or Gaviria for San Remo? |

Gaviria obviously, he is faster and can climb better over the hills |

Viviani can climb over Poccio..and he can be also faster then Gavira on he's best day. Look he's speed today.
Beside ..he is italian. Milan-SanRemo italian winner will get statue. |

Everyone can beat anyone on their best day, fact remains that Gaviria is faster than Viviani. I remember Gaviria in 2016 when he crashed and came crying over the finish line in San Remo, he has heart for the race and will definitely want to win there.
PS: I'm not saying Viviani wouldn't want to win in Milan-San Remo, any sprinter wants to have a shot there, I just believe that Gaviria is a better choice for Quick - Step

On one hand its nice to have cycling back on the TV, on the other hand its some pretty useless racing really where nothing really goes on until the last 5 km. You can pack highligts of the whole race into a 1 minute video. Tomorrow (or tonight or whatever) hopefully changes that, it looks like a tricky finish, |
