Sorry, but Alberto Contador is kicking butt in this years TDF. Lance is doing his best to hang onto a podium spot. That said, it will be great to have another American cycling team on board.

Contador is obviously the best rider out there this year. But when you consider that Lance hadn't been in the Tour for over 3 years and his age compared to the other top overall riders: Contador: 26 Schleck: 24 Kloden: 34 Wiggins: 29 Nibali: 24 Armstrong: 37

Its still incredible if he gets a podium spot in a TDF at his age. And they have had to work even harder for it with them losing one of their key team member Levi Leipheimer.
