Paris-Nice

Team Sky have just shattered Stage One apart in the crosswinds and according to the Live Paris Nice feed from Le Tour, the whole Katusha team has been left behind, includig Kristoff.

It was still a good day for you steve placing first in FS

I came 4th for both standard and purist 

Its all very competitive this year

Thanks for the quick response to the query TER...I deleled my question post before you replied as I saw that the result had changed on procyclingstats...They and other sites had van Emden in 20th for quite a while ...Amateurs...lol

whats harsh?

apart from the fact it seems ive missed the letter f out of shifts 

On P-N website I have him as 21st.

The results posted in this thread are incorrect as they are missing Porte who finished 11th and shits everyone down a space

I may be wrong but I ant see there being many sprints.

Especially with stage 2 having cobbles, and stage 3 being slightly uphill finish.

so for my purist Ive not got any out and out sprinters, and 5 that could do well on GC, 3 of which could go well in stage 1 2. Ive got 1 allrounder, 1 cobbled guy/break. and one who should be the teams sprinter but not a top guy.

My standard is try and do well in stage 1 and see what happens, potentially 3/4 changes for stage 2, but 2 riders likely to stay in all week

Done the same thing with my standard team. I've included three prologue/gc guys with a plan for stage one.
Purist is the four best sprinters and two gc/climbers.
