Does anyone have a view on how Ivan Basso is doing? Fassa Bortolo manager Feretti kept him out of
the Giro to focus on the TDF. But untill now i haven't seen any significant result in the
preparation of last year's Tour best young rider.
Does anyone has a list of riders who are 100% sure about (not) participation (particularly the
sprinters and overall riders)?
As far as i know these riders should start (if they don't get injured): overall: Casero, Ullrich,
Armstrong, Beloki, Botero, Mancebo, Hamilton, Sastre, Mayo, Basso, Azevedo, Leipheimer, Botero,
Heras sprinters: Petacchi, Kirsipuu, Schweda, O'Grady, Cooke, McEwen, Zabel
Can anyone confirm the selection for the Tour of these riders: overall: Aitor Gonzalez, Simoni,
Garzelli, Montgomery, Rogers, Cañada, Savoldelli, Evans, Frigo sprinters: Furlan, D. Nazon, Hushovd,
JP Nazon, Casper, Eisel, Pollack, Haselbacher,Isaac Galvez, Freire, Glomser, Quaranta, Vainsteins
Guys who definitely don't start: Sevilla, VDB, Gonzalez De Galdeano
