Gerraint looked pretty strong in the Tour De Suisse (obviously, he won it, but he never really seemed in trouble). If he keeps out of trouble and Ineos do their thing of having more people left by week 3 than the other teams then he could have a real chance at the GC. That is until it rains and they all slide out because apparently they have cursed tyres.
Let's hope so. They have the team to do it on all terrains, so it would be their best chance of coming away from the Tour with something (they only won a solitary stage in the last three Tours). I still think a podium place is a stretch goal for them, so stage wins should be their primary objective.
Won't happen. Teams don't conspire for a common goal, they chase their own goals all the time.
