Quite surprised to see mtn send so many of their TDF riders to this race knowing the chances are high for crashes and possible injuries

Dauphine forms part of most a TdF riders training program.

Yip, teams will use either Dauphine or Tour de Suisse as final race prep for the TDF.

 

Edit: The riders need to have some hard racing in their legs before the TDF starts. The importance of being race-ready far outweighs any risks of crashes/injury.

Fortunately I don't suffer that problem with Cycling News' broadcast of the races! [emoji12]

Joined. Do you have to chose a team every round, or just make transfers if riders crash. I did not pick any Astana riders :P When they get bust and have to pull the whole team, I will not have enough transfers :P
