- Omega Pharma is trying to get Sonny Colbrelli who would have a leader role in smaller classics.

Isn't the OPQS squad already rammed full of riders who want/deserve a leaders role in smaller classics?

According to Swiss newspaper blick Stefan Küng is getting a pro-contract with BMC. He also had an offer from Trek and probably also from IAM.

Apparently Alex Dowsett was seen in a Sky car at the UK nationals.
Did he leave in bad terms from Sky? If not he probably still has friends there and it's just common courtesy really.

Exactly. I guess Movistar would offer him some type of extension but his results haven't exactly been stellar since the surprise Giro win. Although it has to be said that he's a flat TT speciailist and there have hardly been any of those that suit him this year.

Beppe news:
- BMC tried to sign Rui Costa but Lampre was able to renew for 1 more year.

Costa already extended? Hmm just a couple days ago a guy posted on Parlamento that Costa had already decided to leave Lampre at the end of the year.

I imagine it was a long walk to the Movistar car.

Indeed.

If Movistar weren't happy with how Dowsett is going I somehow doubt they'd be taking him to the TdF. I'm also guessing he has a fair few friends still at Sky.

Nothing there IMO

maybe they consider going on on pro-conti if Sagan leaves...

They still have a relatively strong squad if he does and Sagan leaving would free up big $$$. Wouldn't necessarily mean the end of them at WT level.

Take it with a pinch of salt. ;)

Only reason I mentioned it is his contract is up.

They don't know more than you do. TuttoBici writes that Rui Costa is close to extending for 2 more years at Lampre.

Alright, in any case he's gonna likely stay with Lampre.

What about Sepulveda? Too bad he is injured now - but do you think a ProTeam will sign him for next year? Has there been any rumours linking him to other teams?

Awesome. Contador should hire him as domestique though.
