Do we have evidence for this? I've not seen JTL tackle any really big climbs - certainly not at this level (I wouldn't compare Alsace or Haut-Var to P-N). Is he that good a climber? Better than Porte?

None at all Smutch! Pure speculation on my part!

Fair enough! Who knows? You may even be right. ^_^

J T-L, who di an excellent job at the ToB last season, and deserved his Sky contract, is a neo-pro at world level. The management will have his numbers and want to see how he goes in the first really important stage race of the season. Porte will lead, and it will be interesting to see how well J T-L fares as a climbing domestique in the high mountains. Apparantly Sky have got quite a bit of weight off his already slim frame, so who knows what he can achieve in terms of watts/kg? Paris-Nice may be a good form guide. And never discount Sivtsov, either.

It'll be interesting to see how Lovkvist goes after his victory in Tour Med, his career faltered at Sky so let's hope if it is now on the up again!

Looking forward to this one to see how Sky fare and some of the other notables. Fuglsang has a point to prove, as does Gesink as per, Talansky can make further progress, Westra was 2nd to Wiggins last year IIRC.

As long as he makes it to the start line on time and doesn't turn up Latte...
