I think Vino has a better chance at winning the TDF than Krueziger, Krueziger just doesn't have what it takes to win a GT, he isn't proving to be the great climber everyone made him out to be 2 years ago.

I don`t see the same things at Vinokorov neither.
So I am quite sure none of both will win a GT in the next years and probably never. |

And what news is this anyway?
I could see Vino contending for the Vuelta or Giro actually, but the Tour is too controlled. Not a race for him.

Kreuziger did stagnate this year, but he's still only 24... |

Which is just 1 year less than Schleck. I reckon he may have a shot at the Tour with ~100km of ITT. But just if AC is banned, and Menchov isn't at top form. And even this way, he'll need to improve. |

Remember guys that he might get a boost for changing team, noone really knows. And Menchov is not getting younger. I doubt that Kreuziger will ever win a GT, but we can't be sure atm. Some poeple develop like a stair (dunno if there is another english name for it), and Kreuziger might just do that. Or he might stagnate and turn into another talent who didn't end up where poeple thought

Two of the portuguese guys are Rui and Mário Costa, brothers. It now seems that we know why Movistar didn't want him for next season. For me, I think it's one of the worst news I remember in our cyclism. /:

Ouch, Bakelandts breaks a wrist and won't train for six weeks. That sucks. Will put a denter on his prep for next season, for sure.

An update on the Costas:
The substance is methylhexanamine, the same as in Lhotellerie's case. Oddly, the head of the anti-doping organization said the case is still being investigated and compared it to Liédson's case.
In Liédson's case, the B-sample was negative....I wonder if that's what he means.
I doubt it, though. Anyway, it's been 3 years since Caisse had a positive.
And now here's some painful irony:

The quote was especially awesome. It had a quote on him saying why he joined Bikepure, because he loves "what you guys are doing"
