Can anyone beat the Welsh scryer, who correctly predicted the winner after stage 8 last year?

My money is on Pogacar again!
Visibility good except in Hill Fog
It's hard to see past Rog/Pog for the win. Hopefully G will make the podium if he manages to stay on his bike.
A lot of attention is being paid to Pogačar riding on the big ring, when he was on the biggest sprocket at the back.Originally Posted by Marco
I recognise the "he's on the big ring!" psychology (after Riis) and far be it from me...but I would have thought it was mechanically slightly more efficient for him to have got his chain more in-line?
After all, the boy clearly needs all the help he can get

From BBC sport website, he'll never catch the rest of them by running as they have bikes

Post update
Mathieu van der Poel is off his bike but nowt to worry about.
Just a shoe change for the Dutch rider, who is now up and running again.
Don't roll with a pig in poo. You get covered in poo and the pig likes it.
Own up whoever wrote him off the last couple of years?

Awesome that. Made my day.

Wish I had put a few ££s on him winning in Paris, would have been worth a punt 6 months ago and have got some very good odds. Bet that has changed at the bookies!

Well, that showed 'em 💪.
Great pictures Marco - looks like you picked a better day.
Pogacar is good, really good. But anyone else wondering what the heck is going on with some of these other GC riders?
Ineos went with 4 of them all capable of top 10 and I know GT crashed, but Porte and Geoghegan-Hart have been very poor for Ineos and Kwiakowski usually at least makes the bottom of the last climb. He's hardly been seen.
Super Man Lopez will need a rebrand and Fuglsang, another way off the mark.
I'm astounded Simon Yates has gone there is such poor form. A rider of his calibre should be contesting a podium.
