Rules for Tour de France fantasy game 2018

The rules are easy: choose 15 riders, including one loser and one secret weapon. You can't choose all of the strong riders. Each rider has a value, blackpoints, varying from zero to five. You will have a total of 20 points available.
The loser is a special cyclist in your team. This cyclist leads to negative points, if the cyclist performs strongly or doesn't finish the tour (see score). If you choose a loser with black points, these black points can be spend extra to your other 14 cyclists.
The secret weapon is the secret cyclist of your team. This cyclist is only visible to other users when the pool is finished. Scored points of your secret weapon will be applied when the pool is finished and summed up to the total points of your team. A secret weapon may not have any black points.
You will find an extensive overview of the rules on this page.

First week Tour de France 2018

The Tour de France will start on Saturday 7 July 2018. Chris Froome will be at the start again. His competition will include Vincenzo Nibali, Nairo Quintana, Richi Porte, Rigoberto Uran, Mikel Landa and Romain Bardet.
We make a round with the clock. The first stage starts on the island of Noirmoutier-en-l'Île. The course shows a flat profile, so a sprint is expected. Do we get a sprinter in the yellow jersey? The second stage is another stage for the fast riders. Stage 3 is a team time trial over 35.5 km, so long enough to make the first differences in the rankings. The first will be completed by two flat stages, two hilly stages and the cobbled stage to Roubaix. In the promising cobbled stage you can't win the Tour, but certainly lose it.

Second week Tour de France 2018

After a rest day on Monday, the riders will be given the first serious climb on Tuesday. We will enter the Alps. Stage 11 on Wednesday has four mountains and a uphill finish. Fireworks are expected in view of the short distance of 108.5 km. Fireworks can also be expected in stage 12 to Alpe d'Huez. The second week ends with three hilly stages. An excellent opportunity for a breakaway. Can they stay out of sight of the peloton?

Thirth week Tour de France 2018

Again a rest day on the Monday. The third and last week is one to feast on. The week in which the decision will fall. The week starts with a mountain stage to Bagneres-de-Luchon. Stage 17 is special: 65 km long, 3 cols, gradients up to 10% and an uphill finish. Will the decision for the yellow jersey be in this stage? In the next stage to Pau, the sprinters are on their turn again. On Friday the queen stage will be ridden from Lourdes to Laruns. It's a stage with a finish in the valley, but enough altitude meters to speak of a queen ride. The second to last stage is a tough individual time trial over 31 km. Traditionally the Tour de France finishes on the Champs-Élysées.

2017 Edition

The Tour de France of 2017 was one of ...

... a very strong Warren Barguil who won the pola dot jersey and two stages.
... Marcel Kittel, who was supreme in the sprint and dragged a handful of victory inside.
.. Rigoberto Uran who won a stage and unexpectedly finished second in the general classification.
... Romain Bardet who was continuously short in the standings.
... and thanks to a terrible final time trial, almost had to give up the podium, but still came on it (the difference was one whole second with Mikel Landa).
... Simon Yates who won the white jersey.
... Fabio Aru who still could not do it.
.. Albert Contador who could not do it anymore.
... Thomas de Gendt, who was the most combative riders, also earned the prize but did not get it. And it was also the Tour of a supreme Team Sky with winner Chris Froome. Will his team be the strongest again this year?
