That Ferrari has previously worked with Astana riders is a well-known fact from the Padova investigation. That the link is still being investigated is definitely a story IMO. Neither DR nor Politiken says anything else that there is an investigation going on and are therefore interested in...

DR and Politiken have done nothing wrong here. They become aware of a potential collaboration with Denmark's biggest rider and the most infamous doping doctor in the world of cycling. A collaboration that is illegal, no matter if it involves doping or not. The journalistic right thing to do is...

Your initial post was about questioning the motives for Rasmussen (to write the book) and BT for publishing snippets to boost sales (as far as I know the book is published by Peoples Press which has no financial strings to BT). Politiken has also posted several snippets from the book as well...

It really is cringeworthy to read some fellow danes still defending Riis at all costs claiming the journalists are part of a which hunt and Rasmussen is only looking for revenge. I guess it just shows how much impact confirmation bias has on peoples judgement. From the first few snippets I've...

Klier retired earlier this season which leaves another place up for graps if they want to have 30 riders. Procyclingstats also have these riders listed as running out of contract: Danielson Michel Kreder Morton Haas Howes Rathe Fairly Rosseler Morton should definately get at new contract after...

Are you dutch by any chance? I have no reason to doubt any of the information. He was only allowed to get back in the sport if he revealed all information to the anti doping authorities. IMO he's much more trustworthy than any of thoose half-assed admissions we've seen from Armstrong, Riis...

Rode a decent ITT today, I think he's too close in the GC to get in the breakaway.

Does anyone know what the rules are regarding who gets the maglia rosa after the TTT asuming none of the teams with riders that took bonus seconds yesterday will be in contention? If for example Sky wins, is it then the best placed rider on stage 1 that will take the jersey? If that's the case...

Obviously the overall GC is by far the greatest achievement. But what about GC placings versus a stage win? For me GC 1-5 > stage win(s) Stage win > GC 10-15 Not quite sure how to rate GC 6-10 or points/mountain jersey vs. stage win. Any thoughts?

He will participate in the Tour of Turkey which will probably also have more sprint finishes than the Tour of Romandie.

Anybody know if the full result list is available somewhere? Have a few head to head bets I'd like to know the result of.
