  1. That we don't have the same guy winning all the sprints
    this time. Not that Fassa has had a bad tour so far, at all
    - a prestigious prologue win and two days in yellow has got
    to be a nice change of pace for a team which has had so
    little variety in their victories. But the victors - Jaan
    Kirsipuu and now Robbie McEwen! I couldn't be happier for
    the both of them.

    Question - will tomorrow, Waterloo-Wasquehal, be a
    sprinter's stage? Is there a significant precedent to this?

    Hey, c'mon, unlike the Giro he's got a lot more competition
    and you bet they've paid attention to how they set up their
    train and how to disrupt it.

    And the fact that Fassa doesn't care as much about the Tour
    as they do the Giro. One of the strongest guys in the
    leadout, Cioni, is resting at home.

    Oh, they care about it alright, but they're doubtless not as
    hungry for wins as others. 9 wins at the Giro... people will
    talk about that for years... Petacchi could hang up his bike
    now and his season would be superb.
