Jan Ullrich is hitting his form after winning the Tour of Switzerland. His performance was impressive. He won the time trial despite the rain. He hung around in the mountains.
Says Jan:
"The Tour of Switzerland was an important test before the Tour de France and it was hard to win but it means I've done the best possible preparation for the Tour. I wasn't in great shape in April but the Giro d'Italia and then all the climbing in Switzerland has changed all that. Now I'm on the right road and my win confirms it. I think I'm at 90 per cent of my fitness but I'll find the remaining 10 per cent with some training at home before the start of the Tour."
"This year's Tour is going to be difficult to control and that will make it a harder race. Everybody saw how strong Ivan Basso was in the Giro and even though other Tour contenders like Floyd Landis and Alexander Vinokourov didn't perform well in the Dauphine Libere race, I know they're going to be ready for the Tour."
