Contador winning on Kapelmuur, in his first race after comeback?

He will become the biggest troll in cycling history

 

[El Pistolero]

Good that Specialized keeps supporting him.

 

[gilbertador]

Contador on the Muur at the Eneco tour will be quite a site, I can see him dominating the end of season, doing the worlds will also be really good to see

 

[Lexman]

He confirms Eneco & Vuelta, hints that this will happen in Saxobank colours and hopes for the worlds...

Something interesting in that interview is that the journalist ask him about an 8 million dollars offer and 4 years and he didn't deny.

4 years with Saxo Bank?? so they will continue thought their contract ended soon?

Is there a more complete version of the article, because I didn't see any mention of the 8 million dollar offer or the 4 years.

It's from Astana.

 

[Carols]

"I'm working on it [contract negotiations - ed.]. There were six interested teams, amongst them Movistar. But without a doubt, my priority is the Saxo Bank team, who gave me their unconditional support through these difficult times, and that's something that money can't buy. There are things you need to honour and they are priceless."

Prue Class both on and off the bike!

 

[Vino attacks everyone]

Really? don't mess with me with stuff like that

What if Saxo can't keep their world tour licence, will Contador still stick with them? I suppose with him on the squad you're pretty sure you're going to get invites for the major events, but it's not certain. The soap opera continues...

Contact option- if Saxo dont get Tour I can leave.

Might discourage Prudehomme from not inviting Saxo if he knows Contador will get in with another team.

Riis on UCI points rule: "It'd be similar to if Messi had been banned and his goals wouldn't count when he returned. It's grotesque"

 

[LaFlorecita]

Not really about the Vuelta but about Alberto's return.

His schedule:

Eneco Tour
San Sebastian
Vuelta
Worlds
Lombardia

He also says that he hopes to do well in the worlds tt but doesn't expect to perform in the road race and will ride for his teammates if he starts.
