Good. No more stupid "Schlecks to go back to Riis, Contador to Bruynel" type of rumours anymore
thats a google translation of yesterday CicloWeb italian forum about SaxoBank
Saxo Bank
Merger with the current-Liquigas Cannondale? Difficult, the Saxo Bank already has several sponsors, including the Anfi (but not the Specialized!) For 2013 and has the strength to be able to continue alone, less than sensational twists. The biggest question about Alberto Contador, Spanish is the perfect man for Riis were it not for the few UCI points, which brings with it a significant problem. Bjarne Riis has forced it to look around, I trimmed the names of Matti Breschel and Jakob Fuglsang, involved the transfer, but also with them a few points. And a possible return of Schleck, right in exchange for Contador? Difficult, both brothers Contador does not have a good relationship with former sports directors. Moreover Contador if he leaves the team, hypotheses to be kept in view, however, will only do so for a team sponsored by Specialized. Riis has made us accustomed to surprises, always with UCI points, Reinhardt Janse van Rensburg and Jonathan Tiernan-Locke, have interesting names. Check out Chris Anker Sørensen almost certain, while still in standby Nick Nuyens.

Well you know Contador's going to be in prime shape and extremely motivated for the Vuelta. He can't do it all himself of course, but a couple of stage wins and the overall would be a good start for gaining back points for Saxo.maxmartin said:Now Saxo just have to figure out how to get enough points

I don't care about points or in which team Alberto is running. I just can't wait to see him unleashed again and slaughtering everyone as soon as there's a climb.
Probably, the last opportunity for both Wiggings and Evans to win a TDF. Next year, with Contador, it'll be too late

A new rule. Part of every doping sanction. But;
1 It is against the WADA "no extra punishment" rule
2 It was introduced after Alberto tested +

Some interesting information.

The rule is already in force for valverde - the UCI will argue it's not for individual or team rankings - just for world tour rankings and licenses ( still not right though)

that is why there are all those rumors, merge with GAS, swap with Andy, because there is slight chance Saxo lose world tour rank Contador will not even be able to race the tour. But I don't think that is going to happen, either rule will be overruled or Saxo has to come up some scheme to cope with this.

Even if the worst will happen, Saxo will be invited to the Tour as long as they have Contador.

Opinions differ on that matter. For example I'm not so sure they would be invited.

Not to mention who ever one would be with an *.
*Contador, the best GT rider of his generation was not invited.
Don't underestimate ASO, the Andy Schleck Organisation.
