It's looking unlikely that Lance Armstrong will start Sunday's Brabantse Pijl. Discovery Channel team directeur sportif Dirk Demol told Gazet van Antwerpen, "As a matter of fact we added that race to our program in January. At that time we weren't sure that Lance wanted to ride the Tour de France, do from that point of view we thought he would target other races. Later this week we will cut the knot regarding his participation in Brabantse Pijl, but I think that there's only a slim chance he will be at the start in Zaventem."
