Ullrich in "IS SHIT" shocker

Status quo maintained. His first race of the season, two weeks before he rides the Giro, left him in 90th place. In a time trial. Like the rest of the cycling media, we're going to subsequently ignore this whole incident and continue playing up his chances so that you'll buy our Tour de France special. (Only £6.99 for 50+ glossy pages!)
At least he wasn't fat. Not very fat, anyway.
Elsewhere in Romandie:
Paolo Savoldelli beat Valverde for the stage win, which only makes us hate him EVEN MORE. He's an alleged drug cheat, but all the doping paranoia sites had so many pop-up adverts that it put us off trying to research enough to be able to think of something witty to write about it.
Even his nickname is better than Valverde's. "The Green Bullet" just sounds like a camp 1950s superhero :(
Running tally: Attacking riders 2-1 Conservative riders
