Odds on a Tour win for the Schleck Insect 2010?

pottssteve

If he works on his time trialing like Alberto has done, and gets a nice hilly course, what are the chances of a Schleck Tour win next year?

Some good positive talk from Andy:

"I'm coming back to take the yellow jersey,"

"Alberto showed this year that he was the strongest, the real boss of the peloton. I have much respect for him, but next year I'm coming to win."

If he can improve his TT'ing he'd have a better chance - Roll-on 2010.

L Armstrong 8/1
I Basso 14/1
R Gesink 16/1
B Wiggins 18/1
L Leipheimer 20/1
D Menchov 20/1

Rasmussen?? Ha!
4/7 seems a little short for Contador considering he only does the Tour in odd numbered years

I'm sticking £50 on Armstrong for the win. That man has revenge in mind :twisted:

Hmmmmmm. Hadn't thought about it that way. Could be. I don't really buy the age thing
about LA. 3rd. place in a tough crowd has to count for something. Has to put you up there amongst the favorites, age be damned. If the desire to do it is there, well.....

if Andy Schleck improves from 2009 to 2010 as he did from 2008 to 2009 he should be a strong bet

andy would have to improve increadibly to make up 4.11' on Contador
