Astana Fans
Going to the Team Astana website doesn’t get you a lot of news. Been trying to monitor it for news on when the name change to Samruk-Kazyna would go through officially and I still news reports on Bruyneel and Armstrong!
But I did discover THE Astana Cycling Team Fan Club which has a lot more up-to-date news on it, granted pulled from other sites and sources. (English version here. Interesting article about how Contador had to buy his own wheels during the Tour de France because Astana wouldn’t pay for the best wheels.
This comes from an interview with La Gazzetta dello Sport in November which also reveals that one of Contador’s conditions for staying with Astana was a strict anti-doping program.
