Well Contador will probably be competing for another 10 years and Cadel is nearly passed his prime so doubtful.

If he put as much effort into winning the Vuelta or the Giro as he does into trying to win tdf then I bet he could.

he's not a team player though is he?

the interview with jens voight was quite revealing in how team csc works so well, he was genuinely stoked for sastra's win and felt that it was his win too due to the Team effort. no egos, no infighting, just a realisation that to be successful in the tour is a team effort (they went on non cycling team building weekends as part of their training). maybe evans could win in a team but not many teams would tolate his childish behavior.

it's a shame Ciolek didn't get the win in paris having played a part in Cavendish's wins.
