Discussing a bit via Skype about Greipel... I just said I put 2 PCM$ on him, because I really think he is strong enough to reach the finish line in a small group, and then beat them all sprinting. Do you see him winning? Or at least a podium/Top 5?
Anyway, Nibbles should take some time here, same for Froome. And I think Conta´s team is stronger than Nairo´s one, at least for this stage (Bennati & Tosatto, you know)

Greipel is my favourite but I hope for Sep solo win to save his season.
These sectors arent even hard. Might rain tomorrow though. |

Degenkolb should be all over the race tomorrow now the teams options are less conflicted with Dumoulin unfortunately out. If hadn't been for today's horrific crash, would have been v. interested to see how Fab would have got on. Given the stress levels already on show, expect more crashes, upset and surprises tomorrow. Martin's (T.) interview just after the finish told quite a story, he looked and sounded like it was day 20 rather than day 3 of the race; TdeF just at a different level to all other races at a physical, emotional and intellectual level for all involved.

Froome would be better off letting Martin take over the yellow jersey and so letting Etixx have the pressure of defending it. |

Greipel isn't hopeless on the cobbles and Tour cobble stages generally aren't as hard as the cobbled classics

Greipel hopeless on the cobbles? I dont think you watched the Classics this year and these sectors are easy. |

Lotto Soudal to get Gallopin into yellow tomorrow. Those guys are destined for it. Roelandts, Bak, Debusschere, De Gendt, Greipel... allez allez!
I also hope to see Tinkoff & Astana to wreak havoc upon SKY, should be a goodie tomorrow.

Daryl Impey will not start tomorrow, which means Orica has lost 2 riders already and can't use them in the TTT. |
