Team CSC Announces Line-Up for Tour de France 2007
The nine riders selected by Team CSC for this year’s Tour de France are:
Carlos Sastre, Fränk Schleck, Jens Voigt, Stuart O’Grady, Fabian Cancellara, Inigo Cuesta, Kurt-Asle Arvesen, Christian Vande Velde and David Zabriskie.
”As always, it’s been a very difficult decision. It may sound like a cliché, but again this year we have had the luxury in the fact that we have so many strong riders, who would be able to do well in Tour de France. We have tried to select a broad group of riders in order to make our mark throughout the entire race. In this way we will be able to make a difference in the general classification and at the same time we also have riders, who will be able to go for stage wins in all kinds of terrain. In Sastre and Schleck we have two great contenders for the general classification and of course we will be putting up a fight for the first yellow leader’s jersey in London,” says Kim Andersen.

I am surprised that Andy Schleck did not earn a starting position on the CSC 2007 Tour de France team. He would be a very strong contender for the white jersey.

I think you are right Phil. At the very least he has proved himself a worthy team guy. But with CSC having such a strong team this year, someone with great credentials is going to be left at home.
