Naaah, Valverde winning L-B-L is more or less an everyday-event
The yellow dream is more special. Quiiiiinco!

Just realized Quckstep's team is godlike and probably the most talented rider for rider They shoould at least get 4 stage wins with this team which basically are able to win everywhere, maybe apart from the high mountains. I dont think Urán will target overall tho so could potentially also be a thread for a stagewin |

There's just something about this picture with Valv that makes me love it. He laughing in the face of haters with sparkling eyes of joy, whilst all riders behind make a bad grimace.

Uran might as well go for polka-dots |

Start times for tomorrow. Interestingly enough Quintana will start at 3pm while the 3 other big favorites will start at 5pm, especially because there is possibility for rain around 5pm.

Dumoulin starts ahead of Tony. I think, this could be an advantage for Tony.

Based on my PCM15 experience so far, i predict will Quintana will win the TT. And then the first sprint stage. And then every mountain stage. And probably Champs Elsyees too.
(Ok, ok, Cancellera, forced lay off should see him very fresh for the TdF) |

I guess I'll copy my post from last year's stage 5. It's actually even more suitable here.

Cancellara has been in yellow way too much already.

Too short?
I rather think too long, actually, looking how well he's done this year in TTs under 10km
Don't think he has a big chance of winning, but he could possibly get a very nice result tomorrow.

Lars Boom cortisol level is too high. Astana is part of MPCC.
Vino asked UCI that Vanotti can replace him. If not Boom will start and they'll leave mpcc.

Go Spartacus!!But Tony will win probably.And Froome to gain time.
About the overall:Hoping that Contador or Nibali wins the race.I don't like Quintana that much but I prefer him to Froome. |

It's too low actually.
Officially, the MPCC cortisol rule is to prevent riders who are in bad health to participate in any races. Low cortisol = bad health generally.
I predict Astana will leave MPCC.

So, second case before a GT that involves cortisol levels. Just that Bennett's were too low, and Boom's too high. And knowing Vino, he'll leave MPCC for sure. |
