According to this article, Andy Schleck is about to sign a contract with Radio Shack. One of the remaining problems seems to be that Lance doesn't want to sign Frank.
This is not the first time Lance has paid an opponent with chances of beating him in the GC and make him a super-domestique working for Lance. Thus removing the threat using bank checks.
This time it seems even more obvious since Lance is interested in breaking the Schleck dynamic duo.
Thoughts?
PD: the article references L'Equipe as the source, btw.
