It would be a shame if a guy's coming second... and he doesn't want to attack for first... because of the risk of blowing up and losing his place.

Very interesting list : Popo 50/1. Popovych should be at 1,500/1 given the demise in his form. On Eurosport yesterday, David Harmon said that a week ago a friend of his got odds of 80/1 on Kohl reaching the podium in Paris. Nice odds.
