Who will win the Tour de France 2005? Lance Armstrong (Discovery Channel Pro Cycling Team), who is going for his 7th Tour win? Ivan Basso (CSC) or Floyd Landis (Phonak), each of whom rose to a new level in 2004? Jan Ullrich (T-Mobile), who is still attempting to regain the form that won him the Tour in 1997?
