Flat stage, will the sprinters make it, or will a breakaway stay away?

payback time for Astana
Viviani is missing some pts from y/day.
Correct its already known, i guess keith hasnt had time to re-update
Aah,i see,no worries.
Richeze was such a strong leadout man for Modolo he finished ahead of Petacchi, just behind Viviani. Wow.
Looks like Viviani is missing 3 pts for 3rd in pts comp.
Also does anyone if KOM stage points should have been scored in the ITT?
The kom points were not scored in the itt as we dont normally score them in an itt
Thought that might be the case, but wasn't sure.
Cheers
10th on stage for me!
1,2,3,4,7,11 plus Kruijswijk & Betancur for the mountain points. Hofland was my only let down.
Just 1, 11, 18 for me. 2/3 transfers tonight then save 5/6 for the last day
Nice one backflip, chance of a win there!
I just brought in Modolo and Nizzolo, so picked the right two. Still 8 transfers left, so hoping to save 4 or 5 for the last day...

1,2,3,7,8,11,15,16 not sure what happened to Hofland
Been as tho im playing for fs points, ive gone with 3 changes, leaving me 6 transfers
Contador
Aru
Landa
Amador
Betancur
Kruiswijk
Nizzolo
Viviani
Modolo
Who isn't playing for FS points? thats my main motivation with most comps these days, since stage prizes were scrapped!
No changes for me. Only have one transfer. So just GC points today I suspect.
I've gone full sprinty today! Hoping the break doesn't stay away!
Was gonna stick in Gilbert and Chavanel, but far too many guys who could go for the win in the break.
Modolo
Bole
Mezgec
Hofland
Nizzolo
Viviani
Porsev
Petacchi
Lobato
Somebody has been saving their transfers
Good idea if going for at stage win?
I only took out two riders in favour of Modolo (my bet for the sprint) and Gilbert (my bet for a breakaway), leaving:
ILNUR ZAKARIN (KAT)
ALBERTO CONTADOR (TSB)
STEVEN KRUIJSWIJK (TLJ)
LEOPOLD KONIG (SKY)
RYDER HESJEDAL (TCG)
TANEL KANGERT (AST)
MIKEL LANDA (AST)
Have 8 transfers left though, so should be able to get som decent points in the coming mountains.
