As the day draws near for the final ProTour race of the year, the teams are finalizing their rosters. Liquigas and Milram have announced teams of eight to contest the "race of the falling leaves". For Liquigas, Leonardo Bertagnolli and Filippo Pozzato will lead the final Classic of the season along with Vincenzo Nibali, Manuel Quinziato, Manuel Beltrán, Dario Cataldo, Matej Mugerli and Alessandro Vanotti, with Stefano Zanatta and Mario Scirea in the team car.
"In spite of the long and difficult season, last week in Tours we gave signs of a good condition," said manager Zanatta. "I expect the race to be very exciting also for the characteristics of the race route.
