In my opinion the team will be:

Zubeldia
Antòn
Astarloza
Landaluze
Isasi
Galdos
Verdugo
??? (Txurruka, Perez, Azanza)
??? (Txurruka, Perez, Azanza)

Isasi broke his collarbone once again in the Vuelta a Asturias... Do you think he will be cured in time to ride the Tour?

I was only surprised that Landaluze wasn't in the list.

I didn't want to accuse Magnus...!
