According to Rai's Radiocorsa;

-Nibali just signed with Astana
-Pozzato will meet during Giro's stage in Verona to talk with Farnese Vini about a possible contract but in the meantime he got offers from Vacansoleil, Sky and one more team
-Gasparotto got offers from Rabobank, Vacansoleil and Argos
-Pellizzotti choosed Androni cause it seems Lampre could offer a contract from 2013 but he wanted to ride asap

Ha, where are you Parrulo now ? :D :p

Nah more seriously, I thought that would happen, it's probably not 100% sure yet but I am sure Nibs will go to Astana at the end.

Then Astana = New Radioshack... too many possible GC leaders! Nibali + Braki + Kreuzinger = too many leaders.

There's two then ^^

I wont count Brajkovic at all as he hasnt shown ANYTHING that would make him a leader in last 2 years. Nibs + Kreuziger would be the leaders. Vino retires and Kiserlovski as great climber. Seems fine to me

i am right here! :p

And i will only believe it when i see it. Rai is far from a very reliable source, only about 10% of the stuff they report actually ends up happening :p
 
nibali and kreuziger working for kiserlovski will be like a dream for me.still i hope nibali will remain there

Vino attacks everyone,when vino will retire we'll have to wait some more than 10 years for the moment when 2 vinos(!!!) will be in the peloton :) the attacks will be twice devastating.

Czech billionaire Bakala (the OPQS owner) made it clear that he is interested in all Czech riders especially Kreuziger so it has been rumored for a long time that Kresuziger will be leaving Astana for QuickStep. Perhaps thats the reason Vino wont let him ride TDF as a leader and another reason why they want to sign Nibali.

Scary to think of generations of Vino. I remember when he had one ancient family member that was lame and had to enter politics rather than the sporting life:

Off topic, but an interesting story about Timur the lame, is that on his grave the words were writtren "whoever opens this will experience a fate more terrible than me", or something to that effect.

Anyway no one opened it for hundreds and hundreds of years until in 1941 Joseph Stalin gave the order to open it.

the next day, Hitler invaded the Soviet Union

During today Giro's prologue, Rai interviewed Agnoli (Liquigas) and asked him if he's following Nibali to Astana and he said that he will discuss the contract at the end of this Giro.

So, he admitted that Nibali signed and that he has an offer as well.

thank god, now if just Kreuziger leaves for Quickstep, everything is right in this world, and peace will come to the middle east

Cyclingnews confrims Nibali is leaving.I was right after all :p I don't like his move though, would prefer if he stayed at Liqui, but he evidently won't.
