Publicus said:Is it my imagination or wasn't Frank fired (out of a contract) when his positive was upheld?

Christian said:What I don't get is this hate for Fränk all of a sudden... yes he has major clinic issues but so do quite a few other riders on the team. And if you want to build an entire team around the classics and ignore the grand tours (which the article suggests) Fränk would not be the worst rider to keep because he can actually get results in smaller stage races, unlike Andy
Christian said:Thanks! I guess we will find out soon what it is worth.
No I don't think so... he was always listed as team rider on the website and trained in the team gear...
roundabout said:Money? Don't know how big his contract is though.
Publicus said:I didn't think a WT (or any pro-team at any level) could have an unlicensed rider on its roster.
Christian said:Fabian Cancellara will stay with the team. Trek has promised the swiss powerhouse to build the team's focus around the classics. The grand tours will be more of a UCI-duty than a team goal.
Jungels is wanted by several teams. His decision might likely depend on the financial aspect, where Trek could probably not match the offers of the competition.
Finally the future of LEOPARD TREK Continental Team is also in doubt.

screaming fist said:What about Jungels? I know he seems too young, but he was at the recon-camp with Andy, Voigt and Monfort.
Afrank said:That's good news that they will be built around Cancellara. Cance deserves that, and he's there best shot at success. Now though they need sign some really good guys that can do a good job working for him in the classics but can still bring in results at other times throughout the year. Hopefully Jungels stays too. Staying and learning from Cance could be the best thing for his development.
personal said:What about Kišerlovski? He is still young, and could improve a lot.
