How it works

The Fantasy Tour is all about picking your very own Tour de France dream team. You can choose any riders from any team to make up the ultimate virtual team.

  • Pick your squad of 12 riders: 8 active riders and 4 substitutes.
  • Team submissions close once the Tour begins: at 11h10 SAST on Saturday, 7 July 2018.
  • Substitutes: On the two rest days during the race you’ll have the opportunity to substitute riders. You can drop the non-performers or bring in some fresh legs.
  • Once substituted, riders can be used again, however points are only allocated while a rider is active…. if they’re on the bench you don’t score points.

Pools

This year we have included a new a feature, public and private pools. Now you can square up against your friends, families, and colleagues. Get started by creating your own pools here.

Insider trading... Someone knows something the rest of us don't... Or... Never mind, I don't know what they were thinking.

That number was incorrect as it excluded teams with no changes made for phase 3 which only gets updated after the sub window closes. 

 

Updated now and you'll see Sagan numbers are up... no conspiracy here  :whistling:

Top tip, watch Adam Yates this week... I just moved him to the bench, so the little bugger is gonna go out and have a blinder just to prove me wrong.

You guys can't say that I didn't warn you, he could have taken this stage if he didn't go down in that corner.

Not sure if he would really be up for it today after the crash yesterday? I think he would just try and stay on the saddle up to Paris...BUT you never know, he might prove me wrong today and Sunday  :w00t:

I think he may just take the day as it comes.. but won't be surprised if he takes it easy today, think he would love to win on Sunday, he has come close before and with the faster guys out this is really his chance at a famous victory on Sunday.
