Wow 6th on stage but no top ten badge
6 transfers burning a hole in my pocket. What to do.
Did ok to be honest, took the risk with Hesjedal, but didn't really loose much, back up to 4th, but 70 points now behind Enrique, but only 10 off 3rd
Nothing saved in transfers for tomorrow though
You're still in there! With the next three stages somewhat unpredictable anything could happen. Big break could win 17, 18 or 19. I came 4th in Giro. My big mistake was about this time of the race bringing in 2 sprinters when a break won and I'd taken out the winner Pirazzi! And I normally only brought in one sprinter in that situation as well!
I hope you beat Enrique, 70 is a good lead but not uncatchable.

I should've had a good day today.
what a stage!!! 1.4km to go!
Go Froome!
shud of left my team as it was, lol!!!
Got rid of Valverde and two cheap ones for Hesjedal Cunego and G Caruso. Cunego in the break but not sure if he got any points. Hesjedal and Martin still in the top group, not sure where Caruso is. Maybe a mistake!
Worse than footballers! Although maybe a better punch
Brambilla chucked out!
Always going to be a big fight today!
Didnt expect it to be in the break!
lol, classic!

Coming down. It was 8 1/2 mins, now just over 5 mins.
Uran looking shabby.
Well, I hope that break sticks... I've got three guys up there...
besides, I'm a Poels fan and a victory here might just dissuade him from signing with Sky, God forbid... but if may well be too late for that 
Aru and Lulu in for Uran and Anacona
J-Rod
Froome
Contador

7 transfers available for tomorrow for the sprint so will be looking for a top 3 stage finish in FS league
Had I gone all or nothing on Saturday I'd have won the stage, so no compromise this time. Solely going for stage win rather than overall, so 90% chance of a poor day.
After I picked Kangert, every preview I've read seems to be suggesting Landa will be going for this stage, presumably he's local but I don't know. Ho hum...
Contador
Rodriguez
Aru
Hesjedal
Kangert

No changes for me today.
Christopher Froome (SKY)
Fabio Aru (AST)
Joaquin Rodriguez (KAT)
Merhawi Kudus (MTQ)
Jerome Coppel (COF)
Alberto Contador (TSB)
Lluis Guillermo Mas (CJR)
Daniel Navarro (COF)
Luis Leon Sanchez (CJR)
So after basically just picking the gc favourites for the last couple of days, thought i'd try something slightly different today!
Dropping Froome again, cos I can see him doing well, but not taking the win.
Cant afford Valverde, and hoping I can predict a break winner!
Contador
Purito
Aru
S Sanchez
