1st mountain result :

Txurruka (202 - Caja Rural),
Didier (42 - RadioShack),
Hernández (93 - Saxo -Tinkoff)
Zaugg (96 - Saxo - Tinkoff)

although biciclismo are reporting Didier as Busche so take your own best guess which is which 1

Hmm interesting on Cunego Ray, he never really factored in for me, had I wanted just 1 sprinter and not 2 then he would have slotted into my purists quite nicely. I spent the extra 4 credits and went with Quintana

My standard team is set up for a sprint finish amongst the strong men, Ratto is my tip for days 1 and 2 after his performance in fridays 1 day race. Then I will have 4 transfers to set me up for the summit finishes

Impey
Ratto
Vichot
Wegmann
Cardoso
Fuglsang
Spilak
Talansky
Contador

Purists has a decent balance between potential winners for each of the first 4 stages, a possible breakaway and a some guys that can put in a decent ITT

Talanksy
Porte
Peraud
Sanchez
Quintana
Spilak
Cummings
Ratto
Impey

I'm opening up with

Porte
Sanchez
Gilbert
Cunego
Fuglsang
Txurruka
Gerrans
Gasparotto
Ratto

Purists:Contador,Sanchez,Landa,Gerrans,Herrada,Cobo,Martin,Cunego,Porte

Got to say that I think Cunego's the real bargain in this race?

I think Choo-Choo in the opening break was the most obvious of the season so far 4

Plus Landa's out there for my purists 4 4
