Nah, they won't risk being excluded from major races again next year.
Also, they're probably losing one of the title sponsors, Servetto.

As we don't know Rasmussens current level we can't say that guys like Cobo can't challenge him as leader

I think that Basso showed clearly that you cant do well in your first GT after suspension so i dont expect much from Rasmussen.

Cobo is/was doper.. *The Great Saunier Duval - Tour de Doping 08* He is like Dekker - doper but he will be caught few years later.. Top 10 is possible..

Ehm no, it would not be amazing. Why do you call it amazing that a proven cheat like Michael Rasmussen is getting back into cycling? I don't get it, and please don't tell me you think he's innocent, because he so clearly is not.

As innocent as the rest is my guess... And that quite sums it..
Nah, he's taken the punishment and is back. He is fun to watch, I love climbers, I love Rasmussen, I love Basso, I love Mayo, I loved Pantani, Virenque etc. etc. etc....
Nothing much to say really... Spectacular riders is a must, especially in modern cycling where allrounders are becomming more and more glorious. When will we ever see a Tour de France winner like Pantani again? My bet is never...

I can't understand those type of judgements...
He has been punished so why couldn't he come back without dope ?

This TdF was nothing..he was lucky on that year. Watch Pantani at the Giro in 1999 year..this was grazy stuff..what he did there! I am never seen so doped person..on every mountain stage he left all them behind.
Same Giro he get disqualified for an excessive hemocrit level.
Believe me pure cycling is fun to watch..more human and more close battle..

So, how is that different from what Contador does whenever he doesn't decides to help his teammates?
Contador can TT aswell, I can't really understand how that is possible... To me it's much more understandable that a true climber like Rasmussen can become the best going up that Contador, who can become best at everything...

Maybe Gesink. But most likely, Langeveld or Boom.
