    Right here! La Vuelta is actually my favorite of the Grand Tours. Since it comes late in the season, a lot of the riders are carrying fatigue and injuries from earlier races, and that tends to mix things up and lead to great racing.

    Peter Sagan and Vincenzo Nibali are my favorite riders. Sagan is a sprinter, not a GC contender, but look to him to collect some stage wins. Not sure about Nibali, I'm suprised he's competing, actually. He fractured a vertebra in a crash at the TdF, I don't know how well recovered he will be from that.

    I watch online and on my phone, in America we don't get TV coverage of this.

    I am firmly on Team Pete !!!!!
