You never hear the name "Marco Pantani". By design?

When Pantani was alive and racing, you rarely heard his name
during the early, flat stages of the Tour.

Wait until the mountains, then the comparisons will start.

I heard his name already at the Tour press conference where
Armstrong was asked about his chances of beating Pantani's
record up Alp d'Uez. I wrote about that discussion here so I
don't think it is fair at all to say nobody is talking about
him. As you say Steven, these are not the stages that would
normally cause anyone to think about him. Nobody is talking
about Coppi right now, so what does that mean?
