BANESTO (Mancebo)
STEPHEN: Obviously, they are a top team, but I don’t think anyone outside of the team car thinks Mancebo has a snowball’s chance in hell of winning the race. They are hyping up Mercado as a possibility, but I don’t see it. When Unai Osa arguably had the best Tour of any member of the team, you have problems.
JASON: They always use the Tour as a chance to train for the Vuelta (which they dominate!) and get some camera time for their sponsors. Mancebo is a legit threat for a mountain stage win and a top 10 finish.
STEPHEN: Sounds about right. It's a shame that a team which dominates the Vuelta can't at least pretend to contend for the Tour.
