    I love that 70% of the last 10 have been won with breakaways on a course considered built just right for sprinters.

    For that reason I will go with EBH as not only has he the capabilities to breakaway from a few kms out he also has a decent sprint on him.

    I feel violently ill. I actually agree with FF for once and think EBH will do it. :oops:
    I have nothing more to say on the matter.

    I just have a feeling there are some big on form sprint teams this year and the race will live up to it's title of "The Longest Sprint Race in France"
