The last FredCast poll asked, ‘Who do you think will win the 2007 Tour de France?’ The results were:
34% Alexandre Vinokourov
5% Alejandro Valverde
21% Levi Leipheimer
0% Oscar Pereiro
6% Cadel Evans
34% Someone Else
After today’s Stage 9, it appears that there are now 9 (perhaps 10) possibilities, so we have a new poll. Time for you to vote for the racer who you think will win this year’s Tour. Check it out on the right-hand side of the page at thefredcast.com.
