You really think that at the age of 34 with no results in a grand tour that would suggest it, Bruseghin is going to win the Giro?

I can see an all Astana podium for this one.

GC: Andreas Kloden

(but if Astana somehow get thrown out again before the race starts then Nibali)

Stage 1 (TTT): Astana
Stage 2: Rebellin
Stage 3: Bennati

ContrelaMontre

GC: Klöden

Stage 1- TTT: Team Slipstream
Stage 2: DDL
Stage 3: Robbie McEwen

I'm off for some Cornish sun (what another holiday already? ) so in case RCS have a change of heart or Klöden crashes into his team car in training can I have DDL as back up for GC and if he splits his sides laughing at Klödi in the boot of the Astana car can I have Nibali?

Thanks and good luck 8)
