Telekom in the wind

As part of its continued preparation for a full-on assault at the Tour de France, several key members of Team Telekom will test their riding positions in the wind tunnel. Santiago Botero, Cadel Evans, Paolo Savoldelli, and Alexandre Vinokourov will head to the factory of auto maker Audi to benefit from the wind tunnel testing. Audi is a sponsor of the team. The riders will also take part in a high-altitude training camp in June in the Canary Islands.
