TOUR DE FRANCE STAGE 16 BETTING PREVIEW
Following the second day of rest, the course cuts a big loop north and then west of Nîmes, with a rolling profile featuring only one categorized climb.Ineos have stood out in recent Tours for their ability to use a cross-wind to unsettle their rivals. When both the 2016 and 2017 Tours were in this region, what was then Team Sky pulled off ambushes in the wind to gain useful time on their rivals.
The run-in to the finish is dead straight for the final three kilometres, the road curving slightly with about 400 metres to the line. Anyway, the sprinters' teams must study the series of roundabouts in the final km and positioning will be key in a sprint, considering the twisting finale.
So the usual suspects, Dylan Groenewegen, Elia Viviani and Caleb Ewan, are the riders to watch in Nîmes. They all won one stage so far in this Tour.
Groenewegen crashed on Stage 1, and missed the infamous Stage 10 (Albi). Viviani had a puncture on Stage 7, and ran into bad placement on Stage 1. Ewan has by far been the most consistent, although he is yet to complete his first Tour de France and could be faigued after the Pyrenees.
Who could challenge this trio?
Of course, we can't rule out Peter Sagan for the stage win, while Alexander Kristoff, Sonny Colbrelli, Cees Bool and Nicolo Bonifazio will probably fight for the remaining places.
Dark horses?
A surprise could come from Mike Teunissen (should Groenewegen be involved in a crash or crosswind), Matteo Trentin, Michael Matthews and Jens Debusschere (who was not sprinting in the first two weeks as he was supporting Rick Zabel) while Andre Greipel looks very far from his best from.
The likes of Cristophe Laporte, Rick Zabel, Jasper Philipsen, Giacomo Nizzolo are the sprinters who didn't reach stage 16, along with Wout Van Aert, who abandoned after a bad crash in the Time Trial.
GC leader Julian Alaphilippe is beginning to look vulnerable. He will hope for an easy stage with no crosswinds, giving him another day in yellow and more time to recover before the Alps.

The State Administration of Market Regulation has kicked off investigations into the Alibaba Group, laying claim that the company has been involved in monopolistic conduct such as 'forced exclusivity' by requiring e-commerce merchants to pick only one platform as their exclusive distribution channel, according to the South China Morning Post.
The paper says the investigation is being led by a former official from the state-owned China Communications Network Information Center (CCNIC), which oversees internet censorship and content management. The CCNIC was responsible for censoring the country's most popular social media platforms like Weibo and QQ after they were launched in 2009.
Alibaba has denied any wrongdoing and said it will fight the accusations. 'We are confident that we have not broken any laws,' an Alibaba spokesman told the newspaper. A spokesman for the government's Administration of Government Bureaus told the paper, 'If we find evidence, we will take strict action.'
Alibaba Group started out as a online Alibaba.com marketplace, and now encompasses several other services and companies. The company's affiliate Cainiao, which handles logistics, is reported to be one of the targets of the market regulation investigation.
Alibaba is China's biggest online retailer by total sales, and its Tmall platform — similar to Amazon's online marketplace — has also become a shopping destination for many in the country.
The company's founder, Jack Ma said in a speech in 2014 that if the government shut down Alibaba, more than 4,000 offline companies that depend on it would fail.
Tmall launched in 2013 and now has more than 500 brands and 30 million products, according to its website.
It is not the first time that the company has faced government scrutiny.
In 2012, Bloomberg reported that Alibaba was under investigation by the Cyberspace Administration for suspected financial fraud and a potential security threat in the wake of the September 11 attacks. The company denied those allegations, and the investigation was reportedly closed by the CACAB months later.
Alibaba was also reported to have faced a similar investigation by the State Administration for Industry and Commerce (SAIC), which is part of the State Council, over allegations that online food sales platforms like Eat天下 and Amazon Food were illegally selling hard to get medical drugs and other goods. The company said at the time that it would 'not bow down to external pressure and we will continue to operate as normal.'
In December, the company pulled its online food delivery service in Shenzhen for health and safety reasons.
Alibaba's future in the country has been called into question as well.
In early December, a media report said Jack Ma was looking to sell a 40 percent stake in the company.
