The suggestion that Stage 2 will have to be short - the stage is starting from nearby the French end of the channel tunnel, the stage before ends near the English end. It takes about 35 minutes to go from one end to the other by Eurostar, so this isn't a particularly long transit. Therefore I'm not convinced this speculation is founded.

There must be a date at which it is decided which teams can enter the Tour de France 2007, if it is not already decided. Unfortunately, I searched but I cannot find this date. Similarly, there must be a date at which the list of cyclists entering the Tour is made public. Again, I searched but I could not find the date. Both dates can be mentioned in the article, and would improve the content. Can somebody find these dates?
Secondly, although the list of competitors is yet to be determined, there are already some thoughts about who are important contestants. The 2006 Tour de France also had such a list. If there is some reliable source of information about who are suggested to win the 2007 Tour, it should be included in this article. Of course I can make my own list of favorite competitants, but because I'm not a sports authority, it is not Wikipedia-worthy. -- Pie.er 17:13, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

Andy Schleck was tipped to be a major contender before the race started as he had a very good Giro, he was at 50-1 with most bookmakers but as he is not riding should he be included in the section under the table which includes Cunego and such? -- GOD 09:47, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

Apparently the fact that Danielson was a pre-race favorite according to the bookmakers should be referenced. I tried to do it, but I couldn't because the skybet page is not archived. I do have a clue for those who don't believe it: on 13:34, 14 June 2007 I updated this article and added the bookmakers odds for the first time, and there was Tom Danielson. ( see here) At that time, skybet and sportingbet gave him the same chance of winning the Tour de France as they did with Rasmussen :) I know this is not convincing enough to put it in the article, but it might be of some value for personal interest. Personally I don't have any idea why Danielson should be considered a favorite for winning the Tour, but apparently the bookmakers did. If it is possible to find the original skybet page (or an alternative betting page), please cite it.-- Pie.er 10:36, 18 July 2007 (UTC)
Should we mention the fact that the outcome of stage 13 is contested at the moment, pending the outcome of Vinokourov's B-sample? And does anyone know what will happen with Vino's victory in stage 15, if the B-sample of stage 13 comes back positive as well? Will he be disqualified retroactively, with the victory in stage 15 going to Kirchen? Or will the outcome of that stage depend solely on the outcome of Vino's doping test for that stage? Btw, I noticed that Vino's positive test hasn't been mentioned in
2007 Tour de France, Stage 11 to Stage 20#Stage 13 - 21 July 2007: Albi, 54 km (ITT) yet.

I have tried to make a graph of the positions of the main contenders in the 2007 Tour de France. The result is shown in the right. I am currently not so happy about it, as it does not help much to make the progress clear. Any advice on what to do with this?
I already know I should add explanations to the axes, label the stages better ('P' in stead of '0' for the Prologue), change the order such that the number one position is on top of the list. But I'm afraid that will not be enough. Am I on a dead end, or can this graph still be made clear?
What I think would be more illustrative (but would take me far too much time) is to make a graph with the time gap with the yellow jersey. If someone else wants to try that ;) -- Pie.er 08:03, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
I'd invert the Y-axis to place the leader (Yelow Jersey) at the top. Following on from the above comment, perhaps use the markers as the jersey indicator, and the lines as the rider.
Jersey indicator colours - yellow and green are obvious (but green won't be an issue, unless you follow everyone who had a jersey, which isn't a good idea). White (for Contador) should be within a border of some sort (or change the backing colour to gray?). Polka Dot (for Soler, who probably has earnt a place on the graph at some stage should be a red/white split marker. How do you put combativity in there? You don't, because it's not a jersey. You could use a star marker for it instead of the normal one, if that's at all possible, for that result.
As for time - you'd need a list of gaps after each stage. It'd be a lot better, but subject to finding that information. If you can invert the axis, all you need to do is put time from leader for each stage. Early on, that still won't be massive amounts (unless you keep Vino. And Rasmussen causes issues as well. I guess his line just disappears.)
I have made one withe Contador in orange, Evans in green, Leipheimer in Pink, and Sastre in Blue, Horizontal lines are one minute behind leader, vertical are each stage. http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e241/fresz/tourgraph.png?t=1185688857 69.178.52.88 06:03, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
what's the difference between DNS and DSQ?
I'm looking for one. They said it on the TV broadcast, but I'm trying to find an article. Nosleep1234 13:26, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
I guess it depends on how technical you want to be
When Tour de France officials were informed of Alexandre Vinokourov's positive test control for a homologous blood transfusion resulting from a post-stage 13 blood check, they responded by asking the rider and his team Astana to leave the world's biggest bike race. Cyclingnews' Gregor Brown was in Pau to capture the responses from Tour director Christian Prudhomme and ASO President Patrice Clerc.
If you read that as Vinokourov and Astana could have started today if they so chose, then I guess he wasn't disqualified. Nosleep1234 13:30, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
Actually, he doesn't sound anything like a duck. Cyclists have beaten drug charges before (Petacci sp? as a recent example). However, if you treat Vino this way, surely the Cofidis rider deserves the same treatment - withdrawal due to positive A-sample test for [was it synthetic testosterone or 'excessive testosterone levels'], and team to follow that. The irony of Cofidis protesting Vino's actions doesn't escape me either... or at least, the guy who already had a positive test in the bank when he did it. 121.208.196.161 00:37, 26 July 2007 (UTC)

Since Michael Rasmussen was removed from the tour today, the question now arises as to who should be considered the GC leader between stages 16 and 17. While I understand the opinion of many people that it should still say Rasmussen as GC leader because he was awarded the yellow jersey at the end of the stage, I believe that the events after the race negate that fact and Contador should be listed as the GC leader for the period between stages 16 and 17. It makes the most sense since Contador will start stage 17 in the yellow jersey IMHO. Also, Versus has posted Contador as the GC leader on their site in the headline "Alberto Contador Discovery Channel Team holds Yellow Jersey." What do you all think? -- Barinade2151 02:22, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
From what I understand, Contador would only have gotten the lead in the GC and the yellow jersey prior to stage 17 if Rasmussen had been disqualified by the organisation. He has been pulled out by his own team, so counts as a DNS. This means that his lead in the Tour ended the moment Bennati passed the finish line. A ecis Brievenbus 21:20, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
Well, the thing is that the jersey "rightfully" belongs to the person in the lead. Just because Cancellara didn't wear the green jersey in stage one or Rasmussen the polka-dot jersey in 9-16 doesn't mean they didn't belong to those riders. If we're going to change these tables in any wide-scale way, I would greatly favor keeping the classification leaders in rather than the physical wearers. Either way, you'd need a footnote - would it be right to show Soler as holding the polka-dot jersey from 10 on when he didn't hold it outright until 17? Nosleep1234 09:17, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
The GREATEST SCANDAL of Tour de Farce 2007 was the exclusion of Michael Rasmussen from the race. He was not supposed to win and therefore was not allowed.
The greatest mistake Michael Rasmussen made in the Tour was not to announce his intension of winning the Tour; neither to his team nor to the Tour Management. Obviously the teams have to pay a fee for participation and probably also a “Winners Fee” if they intend to win the Tour. As Michael had not told his team of his plans they had not paid the “Winners Fee” and therefore were not supposed to win. The other big teams having paid the “Winners Fee” obviously protested against such an “upstart guys” attack on their “right” to win the race; and obviously the Tour Management can’t have a winner not supposed to win making such an assassination on their own plans and “rules”.
So, at the time Michael showed he was the greatest rider of the Tour and won the 16th stage and was going to win the race, the Tour Management had no other choice than to order Rabobank to fire Michael. How could they order Rabobank to fire him? Obviously they could make the life of Rabobank in coming Tours very difficult. Especially now, when they have plans of changing the Tour so that only their own candidates have the chance of winning.
In the Tour the code of “let the best man win” has been changed to “let the best paying man win”. So, the next team that hire Michael, please pay the “Winners Fee” to let the best man win.

I don't believe his name should be highlighted as wearing the white jersey, even though he of course is. When Gerdemann wore the yellow jersey, Soler was not indicated this way, nor was he when Rasmussen wore the yellow (instead of the polka-dot). While I realize those situations don't as such matter anymore (they only exist as ancient revisions of this article), I find I agree with the logic. If everyone feels differently, then fine, but rather than edit war (it'd be a candidate for WP:LAME, I'm sure), I thought I'd bring it up here. Nosleep1234 09:31, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
Don't you think that the section 'Doping Scandals' should be moved further in to the article Body? I mean, I know that it is a matter of first importance but I think that it is not located in the right place. It would be better if moved before or after the 'Withdrawals' section. Opinions?

Don't you think that the section 'Doping Scandals' should be moved further in to the article Body? I mean, I know that it is a matter of first importance but I think that it is not located in the right place. It would be better if moved before or after the 'Withdrawals' section. Opinions?

According to my calculations, if there weren't any time bonuses the results would be:
1st Contador
2nd Evans +0:03
3rd Leipheimer +0:05

I've expanded the intro to try to roughly fit the way entries for previous years look. Please take a look and revise as necessary. I'm going to remove the intro template as well. Cogswobble talk 16:37, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
