I do not envy any of the team's directors tomorrow. They will have one million things coming at them every moment. What sort of plan do you go in to tomorrow with? The safe plan would be just do no lose time to the other GC rivals, but how do you even plan to do that? You can not just say stick by Contador or Froome. As trite as it is to say, there will be a lot to gain with risk, but also a lot to lose. Not to mention watching and reacting to what the other teams do. It is also a very different race than Roubaix, even for those going for the win, since many teams and very strong riders are looking at GC instead.
I think it will be interesting to see who goes into the break tomorrow. If GC teams put some people in the break, that could either result in calm race or total chaos.
