I don't know if Astana had the money to afford Contador. Their budget has been cut down.Angliru said:...but are he and Vino on good terms? Wasn't there some bad blood there at some point?

Sorry, I'm probably just not reading right, but want to clarify....Valverde crashed or AC?Valv.Piti said:I don't know about all the fuzz about the Trek-jersey being ugly, it looks fine to me.
Lets wait and see how he performs against Valverde in Andalucía. The 3 first stages are very hard so he should be able to beat Valverde considering his little crash in January.
