Looks like an exciting Vuelta !
When was the last time a TDF winner started the Vuelta ? Ullrich in
2000 I guess, but he quit quickly as he was preparing for the Olympics. Now we're going to have two TDF winners, I wouldn't discount Sastre's chances compared to Contador. Alhough he probably won't have the stellar team he had on the TDF, in fact the roles might be reversed compared to Astana. Leppy is in I'm sure, what about Klöden ? What about Evans ? Does he fancy another 2 or 3 or worse ? |

The Vuelta has always been the only Tour of 2008.

And you seem to forget that it is VERY likely that Rasmussen was doped to the gills. Oh, and while it is indisputable that Rasmussen was pulling Contador, it is also indisputable that no one else, especially Sastre, was capable of keeping up w/ Rasmussen. Contador was the only one who could, and the only one who did. |
