Lance is on form and supposedly motivated, so is Jan, and there are 15-20 other super contenders.
This should be a knock down drag out the likes of which we haven't seen in eons. The larger
pre-Tour picture comes into play, adding drama. YEEE HAAA

Exactly for these reasons I expect a surprise winner running away in a solo break in some flat part
and holding on until the end, sort of like Van Lancker did in 1990

ITA, bring it on.

Jan may not win the tour this year, but if he does the tour he could for sure get some stage wins.

I don't think that Jan is in form. He's in better form than we've seen him in a long while, but I
don't think he's in form yet. Sure, he won a 1.2 race, but his whole comeback relies on pain (if you
read his comments about his comeback trail) and I think this race caused him plenty of that. Top 20
in LBL, but I think he'll either be out of position to join the finale, or get dropped by it.
