Tom Jelte Slagter (GRS)
Michal Kwiatkowski (OPQ)
Carlos Alberto Betancur (ALM)
Alberto Contador (TSB)
David Arroyo (CJR)
Adam Yates (OGE)
Koldo Fernandez (GRS)
Kenny Elissonde (FDJ)
Peter Kennaugh (SKY)

Couldn't resist some in-form riders, hoping that Kwia returns to winning ways. Wanted Valverde too but just couldn't afford everyone.

Decided to take a punt on Kennaugh as he is Sky leader for this race, and cheap.

Standard looks weird as I wanted the 4 big guys, leaving very few credits for the other 5. Will need some luck with the breakaway...

Gilbert
Kwiatowski
Gerrans
Valverde
Hivert
Arashiro
Fairly
Salerno
Veikkanen

Purist again was based on three top GC guys plus Txurruka as a random hope for a tilt at the KOM...

Valverde
Kwiatkoski
Contador
Txurruka
Landa
Arroyo
Salerno
Hivert
Van Der Sande

Contador
Betancur
Slagter (Van Garderen)
Peraud
Durasek (Chaves)
Fedrigo
Salerno (Hansen)

Teams ended up being put together an hour before the deadline so not really sure how well I'll do  39
