They did a pretty good job this year. And Rujano had nothing to do with that.

This has been posted literally four times in this thread, and that's not including the fact that it has it's own. |

Ferrari was important part of that and he is gone also iirc. But they will surely higlight the race again with some nice attacks. Net-App-Endura with the possible wildcard again too?

Most likely leaving, yes.
Not sure about Netapp-Endura, as I think Acquarone wants more new wildcard teams. IAM would be a logical choice in my eyes.
Would love to see Löfkvist give the GC one last go. Tschopp is probably a better rider for that though, since he's much more consistent and a better climber.

Maybe even Colombia - Coldeportes? They were at Milan - San Remo so RCS is clearly keeping an eye on them. But IAM would be a good pick too.

Coldeportes would be exciting, but I expect them to be at the Vuelta rather than the Giro. |

Why not both? I could see Colnago missing out next year.

What about Euskaltel, or won't they go to PCT? |

If Euskaltel goes PCT I really doubt they'll be at the Giro, unless Samu really wants to ride it.

What about Nieve? I got the feeling he enjoys Italy, or am I wrong? |

I doubt Nieve would be enough to grant them a WC.

True. But much will depend on how badly other teams will want one and how strong they'll be, of course. |

Mark Cavendish is leaving TEAM SKY because he was not treated on a par with
Bradley Wiggins, according to SKY teammate Juan Antonio Flecha.
Still there are rumours about Cavendish going to Omega Pharma-Quickstep.
Also Flecha said that he is leaving TEAM SKY too.

Well, he's embedding his cyclingnews link a little, that's still better than it was until a couple of days ago.
Maybe he'll stop and just participate in debates, or come with something more original than cyclingnews links now ?  |
