There were 32 prize winning managers this year with 59 prizes up for grabs in the 2007 Le Tour Fantasy Cyclingnews game. We are delighted to confirm the winners of the Le Tour 2007 game here at Fantasy Cyclingnews. It's been a tough battle between the top ranking managers following the events of this year's tour. Selecting the best team was no easy task with the reduced points budget to create your 15 riders, and the number of high profile rider withdrawls. The following winning managers had the highest combined score of Stages Points, GC, MTN and PTS at the end of stage 20. Have a look at their team breakdowns to see who the selected and what they won:
