Who will be in pink on the rest day?

With two mountains stages, the first proper mountain stages there could be a major reshuffle on the GC. So who will be in Pink in the rest day?

Will Rodriguez hold on it and avoid having a bad day?

Will Tiralongo upstage his leader Kreuziger and step into Pink?

Can Hesjedal return to the top spot by surprising everyone?

Will either of Sky's Columbians attack wildly to claim the lead?

Can Scarponi show he is supreme and destroy all?

Will Pozzovivo add a second stage win and claim the jersey?

Can Liquigas put there strong team together to deliver Basso into pink?

Or will it be Caruso that moves into pink to replace his white jersey?

Anyone else?

Ivan Basso will Gotti the climb tomorrow and take pink all the way to Milan.



Fignon - In my day, doping methods were derisory and the riders´exploits were massive.
For the last 15 years or so  it has been the other way rond: there is a huge number of ways in which riders can dope, and any exploits are derisory.

We are getting in to the kind of multi-climb days that have historically been Purito's Achilles heel, but he has enough of an advantage to hang on until the rest day. Pozzovivo is the only one I see bold/talented/stupid enough to try the kind of attack that might put him in pink, the rest are going to wait for next week.

J-Rod will keep it. Actually I can see him overperforming until last Saturday, to crack on the Mortirolo or on the Stelvio.
