Rapscallion Jun 2010 9:25am, 30 Jun 2010 65 posts	0 Rapscallion That is brillliant Looking forward to catching this every evening as won't be able to get the streaming during the day at work. Does anyone know if ITV will be putting any of it on the ITVPlayer? If not, I was thinking of investing a small amount of dosh and signing up for the EurosportPlayer just for the three weeks.

The pilotlight Jun 2010 9:44am, 30 Jun 2010 1,552 posts	0 The pilotlight this will be the Queen of stages, letour.fr finishing on the top of the Tourmalet with only a few days to go will be hard to beat.
The pilotlight Jun 2010 9:48am, 30 Jun 2010 1,553 posts	0 The pilotlight especially with this the day before letour.fr the Pyrenees will be the clincher for the tour this year. they are harder climbs than the alps, roads are harder and poor uneven surfaces, the riders normally don't like them and the spanish will out in force to cheer Contador.
hammerite Jun 2010 9:51am, 30 Jun 2010 10,527 posts	0 hammerite Not forgetting that they've ridden up Tourmalet (from the other side) and other mountains the previous day too. ITV are down as an official broadcast partner alongside Eurovision, it might be that they have different cameras/shots to those used by Eurovision (and theefore Eurosport). Worth having two TVs just in case (or is that getting a bit obsessive?). Agree with SPR about Contador, he didn't go anywhere near full gas in Dauphine, it's not a gauge at all. To answer your questions SPR..... Alberto Contador (Spa), Alexandre Vinokourov (Kaz), David De la Fuente (Spa), Andriy Grivko (Ukr), Jesus Hernandez (Spa), Maxim Iglinskiy (Kaz), Daniel Navarro (Spa), Benjamin Noval (Spa) and Paolo Tiranlongo (Ita). I see that as being a very strong team to support Contador.
2 Flat Feet Jun 2010 10:02am, 30 Jun 2010 2,718 posts	0 2 Flat Feet Contador will be the man to beat, and I don't really see anyone doing it. Although I do see a surprise leader in the first week. Sadly, I also see a big fail for Wiggins, I don't think Sky are strong enough for a three week race Nice to be proven wrong though.
Meglet Jun 2010 10:10am, 30 Jun 2010 4,866 posts	0 Meglet I think its difficult to call the Sky team, knowing Dave Brailsford he will have planned everything to peak for the Tour. Having said that, for their first year I'd be surprised if they do much beyond perhaps the first few days.
The pilotlight Jun 2010 10:11am, 30 Jun 2010 1,554 posts	0 The pilotlight contador schleck brothers wiggins Armstrong sanchez can't see anyone else really. I'll go for Contador, andy schleck, Armstrong 1-2-3, with maybe Lance being the dark horse for the win, if he ever could be a dark horse?
