Think Boonen's right about the Italians - they should pick their strongest guys, even if they end up racing each other - something Bettini is no stranger to....
I'd say the Spaniards start favorite here.... |

Mark Cavendish has pulled out of the British team for the worlds. It is likely that either Dan Fleeman or Rob Hayles will replace him to join Steve Cummings, David Millar, Russel Downing, Chris Froome and Ian Stannard. Milalr and Cummings are doing the time trial while the likes of Swift, Bellis and Kennaugh will be in the U23 race

Fabian Cancellara out of the worlds too! Fatigue apparently. A real shame i was hoping to see him do well in both road and time trial. Seems like the olympics might have finished a few of the world contenders off?

It's a shame yes. We all know that he's the best time triallist, so this year's world championship TT winner won't really be recognized as the best  |

Now that Cancellara not participate, so should Schumcher be the biggest favorite in years

Sorry, I should've quoted the post I was referring to. It's Schumacher.
