Kreuziger is probably not explosive enough for Cauberg. And he won't be allowed an early attack like last year. Gilbert is back on form, and Valverde will be dangerous as well.

Gilbert is looking better this season but I am still to be convinced that he his back to his very best. He was awesome.
BMC looking a bit better this year. Thor was good at PR. Maybe Cadel might get his form back for the Giro,TJ could surprise at the tour?
They have had a horrible time and have fallen way short of expectations.

Schlecks are riding. Wonder if Andy will be able to do anything?
What has been going on with him? :wink:

Frank has had a couple of decent moments this year. Could be an outside bet.

Rodriguez is always a danger. I reckon Moviestar will keep the tempo high to try and nullify him.

GVA... because it's too boring betting on the favorites. But yeah, I cheer for Gilbert. :up:

Katuscha looks as if they recruit from the nearby body building club.

Kristoff, Polini, Kolobnev....

Spoiler alert: Gilbert. Amazing last ascent of the Cauberg!

Perfect move by Samu to setup the counter by Gilbert.....nothing anyone could do against that as they had to respect the move of Sanchez

Great win for Gilbert. Even though I picked Valverde I actually meant Gilbert. It was a typo :D
Moviestar burnt themselves out again.
Rodriguez not in good shape. Hope he will be ok.
What's happened to Dan Martin? allergies again?
Kwiatkowski taking out his team mate TM.

I don't recall Kelly saying "making the calculations" once. :shock:
