I would not send a team with more than two clear leaders: can be two among Carapaz, Thomas, Porte. Then you can add 4 pure domestiques among Dennis, Castroviejo, Van Baarle, Amador, Kwiato, Rowe...., and two strong guys to cover in the climbs like Daniel Martinez and Adam Yates. I would not pick Tao, neither Sivakov,..do not look they are made to work as domestiques all the time.
So, two leaders, one stays home. As for now I would pick Thomas and Porte (as 2nd bullet). They seem more reliable plus they do great in TT.
