Though I must say, Voigt couldn't be a doper.
He has too much coolness to dope  |

Jens can't dope. His body will reject any doping as decease that will only weaken him.

Angliru is expected to be the the penultimate stage finish of the 2013 Vuelta
That would be its 6th appearance in the race
There will be another stage in the Asturias region, but finishing on the coast somewhere

Angliru, a steep mountain, after 20 days of riding, should bring us some spectacle by those who still have some energy left!
Two previous winners there are Contador (2008) and Cobo (2011)! |

Angliru is always spectacle, but chances are big the contenders will ride like pussies untill that stage. |

Wilier I disagree. It wasn't the case with the Bola del Mundo on the penultimate day the last two years.
It's not like the Tour de France where everyone just sorta looks at each other and waits for the end. At the Vuelta, people attack.
Anyway, for anyone who's weary of discussing it before it's officially confirmed, Galdeano had already said he'd spoken to the Vuelta organizers who had confirmed to him the Anglirú will be in the route.

Well, if the Vuelta will be even half the spectacle of this year's Vuelta, I'm definitely in  |

Yeah but it still wasn't sure because by law he could object since you "can't" take away victories from over 10 years ago, I believe. |

FDJ and Argos have received World Tour licenses. One spot left between Lotto and Saxo.

And it's official: Lotto takes the last spot. No WT license for Saxo - Tinkoff. |

It's such a big drama, I mean, with Contador I think they will get enough wildcards.

What? Saxo instead of Katusha? That doesn't make any sense! |
