Paris-Nice: Stage 2

Keep my team as it is? Save 2 transfers for Stage 4? Tricky one, especially with tomorrow's uphill (sprint) finish.

My team:

Westra
Chavanel
Hivert
Haussler (for Kristoff)
Bouhanni
Viviani
Hutarovich
Renshaw
Kittel

Hoping for big things but worried that Boonen/Gilbert may fancy contesting the uphill finish today. Hoping that it's not really tough enough for them though.

We're getting closer - only one difference in our teams today! (Gallopin/Westra)

Boonen seems more worried about not crashing before the classics season than anything else, so hopefully he'll stay out of trouble...

I've dropped Kristoff today, he's broken nothing but apparently it's touch and go as to whether he rides so I don't expect him to contest the finish, this is from Katusha's website:

Quote:

Alexander Kristoff received haematoma in the area of sacrum, multiple abrasions and bruises of his back as well as of his left shoulder, leg and thigh. The same, he hit his head. Initial medical examination did not revealed any fractures.

No conformation, but he rolled in 17 mins down so cant see him contesting the sprint tomorrow

Forced into subbing out Rui Costa, so had to use a transer. Brought in a Basque...

Ive brought in Chava for Kristoff, as ive already got meersman and hivert for tomorrow/wed. Also the way Bouhanni went in Oman in the tough stages there, sticking in with GC guys, I wouldnt tut it past him again.

Then I will have 3 transfers for Wed but in all reality will only take out Viviani and maybe Renshaw
