yeah, I think Vanmarcke will definitely make the final selection
but history suggests that he will find a way to lose it. I think he works too hard too early in the race and struggles at the end.
Stybar definitely should be leader. Vandenbergh and Terpstra have already blown it twice out front, so they have to back him now. At least he can sprint a bit as well, so it gives them a Plan B rather than having to get away before the line.
I reckon Sagan could even be a dark horse now. He's coming under the radar a bit because of poor results, but he looked pretty strong at Milan San Remo and E3 (before bonking at the end). If everyone just waits for Oude Kwaremont and the Paterberg he could make the final selection and should win a sprint if Kristoff and Degenkolb aren't there.
