Sagan's contract was about to end in 2014. Not anymore, with Tinkoff's money it's been extended and it's now worth 4 million a year.

 

[Netserk]

They should spend some money to build a team around him.

Next year Sagan will win as many Contador won in 2013 and the bad mouthing will start again on Tinkov's twitter

 

[Zinoviev Letter]

Next year Sagan will win as many Contador won in 2013

Only if he falls down an elevator shaft in January.

even if the sign sammy and lulu (which i doubt). It does not matter when Froome can take 5 min on AC every time the road goes uphill

 

[Afrank]

Probably one of the strongest, if not the strongest, team Contador has had at his disposal. Even if they don't end up getting the Sanchez's

but if it rains hard and there is some long descents then we have a race on our hands

Maybe your uncle can sabotage Froomeyboi's bicycle.

He will be playing with Van Garderens bikes next year not Froome's, sorry.

Am happy with the attention my uncle gets me on this site.

 

[Arredondo]

Team Europcar wants to sign Romain Sicard, according to CN

So who's stronger in your eyes? Saxo were last year as a team without Sanchezx2 but Froome was strongest overall

That will never be the Tour team if only because they haven't/probably won't sign the Sanchezes and because Majka will ride il Giro.

Teams won't matter anyway when Froome can just ride away from everyone (see also Contador in for example 2010)

Saxo will always finish better as a team because their riders aren't mindless robots who just ride on the front for 30k at 450W.

I still don't see why it matters though. Well I guess it matters when you want people to discuss Team Sky.

He's not talking about froome but whether contadors team is strong enough to wrestle 2nd place from Porte

Coz i'm a Team Sky fanboy and we are going to win 2 GT's next year while boring you to death
