I have a bit of a time shortage so I won't go long on this post, but you can check out every pick above.
Sadly Croatia won't be joining the races from now on, but on the upper side we have had our first full lineup since the Tour of Oman. I feel great seeing that and I hope it's something we can all keep up
purepasd opted for Bland Race, problems in the site unfortunately caused for 1st and 2nd placed Tamijo and df_Trek to have to use it aswell, first one for all of them.
Jungels was the most picked with 4 managers trusting him after a super early-season run of form, Kelderman and Sergio Henao with 3, Soler, and Ion Izaguirre with 2, Bardet, Calmejane and G.Izaguirre also in as GC hopes and outsiders.
There's also been some focus on the sprinters here, Sam Bennett with 3 picks, Greipel with 2 and Kittel surprisingly also chosen.
Unfortunately I was very doubtful until last moment and after that the site was down, btw bland race was also thought about, and looking first stage it can be good spent

First monument of the season. Milano Sanremo is the sprinters monument, but many times it is the puncheurs and even climbers who end up taking the win. There are tons of riders who have a realistic chance to win the race or have a good result, so let's see who they are.
Well here you have it. MASSIVE startlist and lots of types of riders to choose form. Which one will conquer the race we may not know until the final miliseconds, so all we have to do is to sit back and watch as the longest race in the pro calendar unrolls.

Massive startlist we have here, the climber field is amazingly strong with lots of 1st and 2nd tier climbers, all choosing Catalunya as many have it already as their training ground. From the top climbers it'll be the form that'll count, as pure power will be able to differenciate all of them. We've also got some puncheurs and some sprinters who will lighten up the sprint finishes, especially the sprinter field we will have a good look at the powerhouse/lightweight sprinter battle.
