    Right, after careful thought - This year Quick.Step can't mess it up again, can they?

    Boonen

    Tom Boonen please, even though I don't think QS will be able to control the race.

    Great sense of anticipation here, with record PTP numbers. Enjoy the punter season everyone

    Greg Van Avermaet on the basis that he can get to the finale, but often hasn't been lucky or strong enough to make the podium in bigger races. Also Omega Pharma-Lotto might push the lesser lights now as Gilbert has bigger fish to fry in April. So Van Avermaet please and first post completed!

    Why, yes, yes they can. Similar result to last year, with just one person getting the full 50 points. Well done stefrees!

    Hi Afx

    Could you add me to the 20 point scorers - put in my prediction at 10.23am :)

    On the excellent Sporza post race coverage they showed a clip of Boonen pre race prediciting a victory for Flecha. Stefrees, are you Boonen?

    Blow! Missed it - wasn't well - throwing up - and not felt like coming on-line. I'd have had Haussler as well. Allora, E la vita!

    Crikey! Not fun having the number 106 beside my name, but technically its joint 31st. Still not good.

    You must be gutted after so many years Flecha gets his breakthrough!

    102nd FTW, although I was qiute pleased my left field pick came 12th where I was expecting 112th!

    Me too. I didn't spot a Vacansoleil jersey all day, so saw his name in 12th and was all "wtf, where did he come from?" Then I was all like "wtf, why didn't sprint harder, the big Slovenian slacker!"

    Ignoring everything else (please), Team Murdoch do seem to have created a group of well motivated riders.

    I can imagine most of the Rabo riders thinking that the management there only care about Gesink and Freire, and that they just have to keep their heads down and they have a job for life being their bottle collectors.

    With Flecha, I always thought that Rabo used him to get a bit of TV coverage up front rather than actually wanting him to actually win.

    Got me Rabo team kit now (and some Rabo jeans!) so it is a bit late to change teams!

    Team Murdoch do seem to have created a group of well motivated riders.

    Indeed, Flecha stretched the front of his jersey with both hands to show off the Sky logo as he came up to the line. I couldn't help but interpret this as "at last! someone believes in me".
