I can't wait for this stage.

Anybody got a prediction? I'll go with Cunego.

I'm picking Basso to win the GC but I'll take Cunego to win today with Basso finishing with same time. Basso's TT has put him in the perfect position all he has to do is mark his rivals to win this race.

nope cunego is gonna blow on this one.
I think he is going to defer to Simoni (who
I think is gonna take todays stage).
I think Cunego is going to make a full
scale run at the tour this year.

Good call lotek, I think that's right on the money about Cunego. Awesome win for Savoldelli today.
