Tyler Hamilton isn't competiting in the Tour De France this year even so he's on Team Phonak, he got caught up in an unusual "doping" case. He and a Team mate used blood transfusions to get more oxygen in their body and after a bunch of stuff, the International Cycling Union declared them cheaters and they said he couldn't compete in this years tour.
Early off it looks like its going to come down to the Discovery Channel Team (DSC) and CSC. But here are some intresting numbers, in the top 20 15 cyclists are on either DSC or CSC. But the Discovery Channel is known for the speed in which they can go through the mountains, and so far its all flat. So it'll be very intresting in the upcoming stages. But its too early to say anything at this point.
