Watching the average seems that Schizm is the team with better riders for the Giro. Hill has a big influence combined with TT. Or maybe Schizm bring 1/2 riders to attack in the hill stages For the only mountain stage I think the fight will be between Borrego and my rider

I think you overestimate Wulf (and the importance of hill in the Giro, I know I did because I used the wrong profile for some stages). I would be very pleased if he can finish in the top 5,
It think for the Overall Standings it will be mainly a battle between "Neo" and "Signs" who both have (atleast) 2 extraordinary cyclists in their team. But ofcourse I would love to be surprised by an outsider like Montezolo 's men did last season.

Yaeh Montezolo's team last year was quiet extraordinarius
I have already lost Some time totday, hopefully i can make Some time, but to make Smiling the top candidate? I'm not. Sure, but I would-be glad :-)
I wouldn't consider Molema top three, I think he is riding the giro in preparation of the Tour
Btw, great win today Schizm!

A good win by Schizm My candidates for top 5 in giro are: - Smiling(1º) and Molema (3º) from Neo - Barbantini (4º) from Sign of Destiny - Wulf(2º) from Schizmano - Faia (5º) from BeterLaatDanNooit From this list you can allready forget Wulf for the final standing. He loses 7 minutes. Seems flat was very important today. My only possible contender for the yersey (Germis) won 3 seconds on the main pack without attacking...

Lets see.
Strange that Barbantini, Lazar and Tordeur won 55sec to the peloton without attack.

What I think is strange is the gap between the first and second peloton. At the last long flat part (part 12) the peloton split in two groups. The first peloton consist of 6 cyclist and has 40 seconds in front of the second peloton that consist of 18 cyclist. Till so far nothing strange I think. But on last 2 flat parts the second peloton takes twice 3 seconds back on the first peloton. Part | Terrain | time peloton 1 | time peloton 2 | difference | 12

Neo did you use helpers? I use 3 so the peloton pace should be higger.

They didn't go at 100%, but they are both good flat combined with 8 timetrail so today's stage and the TTT was the reason I brought them to this Giro. I als think you can add my rider Germis to the candidates for this Giro. He's now 8th in the general and with that the first cyclist who didn't attack yet. That's 10 minutes in fornt of some of the other candidates mentioned. And his best skill is mountain...
