The team that will be created officialy in 2007 Astana, a Kazakhstani team, will not have protour license next year according to the UCI.
McQuaid have said that the problem of Astana has been that the team has not given the necesary documents to be protour in the dates it had to be given, so the team can´t be included in ProTour.
This news is bad for the big riders of Astana in 2007 like, Vinokourov,Andreas Klöden, Paolo Savoldelli and Andrei Kashechkin..that is a good question that we will be able to answer in few days, What about those riders the next year?
