Just who is going to be battling the sprints this year in the ProTour? With quite a few riders having gone continental, it could be more open - or alternatively a certain few could just dominate.

Who do you think will be topping the battle for the sprints this season? |

Possibly Boonen. I've trained him in SP. So let's see. I'm hoping for big things, with the high wage. If he doesn't perform, he's out.
Having said that, if he's out. So am i

Well, I'm sure my 79 sp Vanderbiest can beat Boonen anytime.
Or at least anytime Boonen isn't ridding.

I wanna see the Continental threads. I wanna see who Haedo is competing against. I can think of Davis and Goss but no-other names com to mind.

The sprint system in PCM08 means that there'll be quite a few surprise winners in flat stages.  |

Can't quite remember how much training I gave him, but Napolitano is now 83 or 84 in sprints, and is also not bad at getting over hills. 
Though wouldn't surprise me if my two lesser sprinters pick up more wins for the above reason.  |

Nikolai Trussov - upto 78 sprint I believe I made him. Plus 68 mountain, and 67ish hill. Fairly useful.
