Andy and Frank Schleck are not the most flamboyant riders found, they are usually polite and do not have the sharpest tongues. However, it is of course things that can put emotion into play in his brothers also, and in an interview with the magazine Cycle Sport, says the few episodes that have offended them.

Andy Schleck was second in the Tour de France for the past three years. In 2009 and in 2010 he was beaten by Alberto Contador, and this year it was Cadel Evans, who cheated him of the title.

Poor sportsmanship

In particular, 2010-win for Contador ailments youngest brother Schleck. On the 15.etappen in a climb, jump the chain to Andy, and Contador saw their chance to walk away from the unfortunate Saxo Bank rider. The goal separated the 39 seconds between them and the distance kept the Spaniard all the way to Paris. Such speculation, of course, creates, and many claimed that Andy Schleck lost the Tour on Contador bad sportsmanship. Although the Spaniard said at the time that he did not see what happened ...

- When I lost the yellow jersey in 2010 because of the chain, it was shit, but when I this year lost the Tour of Cadel on the final pace, had the Tour been so hard that I ran straight to the hotel, took a beer and was done with it. I did my best but had to take off my hat for Cadel who drove the pace on the way he did. He took the jersey as a true masterpiece in contrast to Contador last year, said Andy Schleck.

The attack by teammate

Also, his older brother, Frank, plagued by a case which occurred in 2008. That year he was a teammate Carlos Sastre of Bjarne Riis's former CSC-Saxo Bank. Schleck had the yellow jersey as Sastre ran from everything and everyone on the Alpe d'Huez and laid the foundation of his great triumph as a bike rider. The chemistry between Sastre and the Schleck brothers were destroyed, and Schleck is still sour that the Sastre attacked him.

- I have never seen anything like that before. You are in yellow and your teammate attacking you. It was a disappointment. Perhaps it was right after all is said and done, over the Carlos won the Tour that year, but today I wish that someone else had won. I could also have won the Tour that year, said Frank Schleck.
