Deutschland Tour preview: Ullrich favorite on home turf

Ullrich made it clear, he wants to win on home turf, and he has a strong T-Mobile team backing him up, notably Vinokourov.
Vino who's leaving T-Mobile at the end of the year to liberty seguros, is arguably the strongest rival to Ullrich in the pack, but he won't challenge him as they are teamates or maybe not !!!!
Ullrich expects Vino to be the ultimate teamate and he's been one so far.
Other contenders are Julich from team CSC and Levi Leipheimer from team Gerolsteiner
At this point, these are only speculations, let's wait and see!
Stage 1 is coming up
