The latest cases of doping are making a dent in the sponsors of cycling teams. Today, Barloworld has announced that will no longer sponsor the team after Moises Duenas's positive test.

Another rebuke to the beautiful sport of cycling, the sport most heavily stalked by justice against doping. This should be the fight against doping in all sports. Following the positive Riccardo Ricco and abandoning his team, Saunier Duval (who was doing a great Tour), the team began to Leonardo Piepoli and Riccardo Ricco. Saunier Duval withdrew its sponsorship of said runners.

Today, Barloworld says it also does the same and stop sponsoring its people. Moises Duenas's positive the company has made the decision. And is that the sponsors did not want to see how their image is tarnished with doping. Like Liberty Seguros Phonac, ONCE, and many others.

Regarding the race itself, everything is more or less the same after these quiet days for the overall leader, Cadel Evans. The race has gone through halcyon days of flat stages. Today, Oscar Freire has won for itself the third Spanish victory in the Tour and continues with the green jersey of regularity, although Cavendish won four stages already.

Tomorrow becomes the mountain. End the stage with high and with a special port and a first category. Cadel Evans will have to overcome the attacks of its immediate rivals, especially Frank Schleck is just a second Australian.
