At the moment the Tinkoff team will include:
Salvatore Commesso
Daniele Contrini
Elio Aggiano
Ricardo Serrano
Tyler Hamilton
Vasili Kiryienka
Pavel Brutt
Evgeni Petrov
Jorg Jaksche
plus the PCM.daily riders:
Dawid Michalski
Riley Majeune
Justin Kevenaar
Feel free to request any rider to join your team - Mikhail Ignatiev and Danilo Hondo will not join the team.
Tinkoff are currently losing the ProTour vote so it looks like they will need riders capable of earning promotion.
Request away! |

I dont think Goss would really fit in the team, Roja Gil would be a good idea. As for Polish riders, maybe Sylvester Szmyd or one of the Niemiec brothers? Cant think of any good Russian riders atm

Or what about Napolitano? (although I think he may be a bit too good)

i think in this three i choose Efimkin.
So we have a lot of request now, but we must choose from this big group only a few - 6 - 9 riders. So if somebody have a request, so you have to write it, or ify don't have any more requests, choose the final group of riders ( 6 - 10 riders ). I will wait for you and Justin list or request, and then we will choose one the best group of new singings. How about this?? |

A problem with targeting big names as that they may not want to leave the ProTour. Ill look at who you have put down.
Gusev has just commited to a deal with Jartazi - they are ranked 3rd in the Continental Tour and theres no way youll be able to get him.
Goss would not be interested as he is in talks with Carlsberg, as is Boassen Hagen. Rogas (73 Sp) would be interested though.
Przemysław Niemiec would sign but Schleck, Dekker and kashechkin would not.
Bennati is too talented for a Continental side but Mazzanti and Perez Cuapio may be interested as Panaria are down in 12th.
Syzmyd could be persuaded, the only Nieminec brother in the game (Przemysław) is the Team Leader at Miche but Im sure that wont stop him wanting to sign for a stronger team.
Haedo rides for the ProTour side Toyota United and is unlikely to sign but Richeze + Garrido, 2 fellow Argentinian Sprinters could be interested.
For Russians, Kozontchuk + Kolobnev would probably sign but Karpets will want to ride at Le Tour so I doubt he would take the risk.
You were talking about Poles so I would suggest Pawel Szaniawski. 25 year old, 76 SP and the Polish Champion.
Ill have a look at the posts after and incluyding Justin mentioning Ukrainians shortly.

OK, thanks SN. So I choose: Szaniawski ( thanks for info ), Kolobnev, Richeze, Przemysław Niemiec, Mazzanti, Perez Cuapio, Rojas Gil. What about Grabovski and Efimkin. And can you tell me - who with good ( very good ) cobble will join Tinkoff?? SN Have you got more advices for us?? |

Im not sure if youll need too many good cobbles riders for now as Tinkoff will be replacing Communidad Valenciana - who dont tend to ride cobbles races, Ill have a look anyway. |

Both Gabrovski and Efimkin currently ride for ProTour squads, but havent really been given the opportunity in ProTour races so they would both be eager to sign for a Russian squad I would think.
For Cobbles, Serguei Ivanov and Ekimov have a stat in the mid-high 70s although Ekimov may retire. I mentioned Kozontchuk earlier - his cobbles stat is 73 but he is just 22 and has a potential of 7. Also, he would be easy to sign from Rabobank Continental. |
