Not that 4th place needs excusing, but McGee wants to win the Tour de France... strange but true, straight from his mouth. I imagine that meant less short intervals and more training of other sorts. But since Romandie is a Giro tune-up race, it looks like he's going to try for the "lesser" prize and let FDJ set up a team for Cookie for Le Tour.
Cunego is probably going to start a little bit tired... and depending on how they perform at Romandie, Il Falco and Garzelli might, too.

I suspect that McGee is still aiming for the Tour. Romandie is a Pro Tour race, isn't it? Perhaps FDJ needed his legs, and were hoping he could pick off a result somewhere along the line. It's probably a good sign for his Tour hopes that he did not in fact win the Prologue.

I may be wrong, but I think if he wanted to win the Tour he would've been active earlier and would be resting now. Coming to Romandie signals that he's coming to the Giro, which, if you'll remember last year, probably means that he's already assured not to impress at the Tour.
