‘It has been very difficult to select this year’s line-up,’ said Tinkoff-Saxo’s director, Bjarne Riis in an official press release. ‘This year, we’ve had a very strong group of candidates, who have all been showing impressive spirit. We have selected a team of high quality both in relations to individual strength and their compatibility to support each other and ride as a team towards the main goal of winning the Tour with Alberto.’ Alberto Contador leads the Tinkoff-Saxo team ahead of other veteran teammates like Michael Rogers, Nicolas Roche and Daniele Bennati.
