Interesting development.
Riis wasn't able to secure sponsors so far, which resulted with Schlecks establishing their own, and suddenly there are companies willing to invest in a team which is losing its main stars, but likely to sign even bigger star.
It's going to be interesting to see who will stay with Riis and who'll go with Schlecks.
I'm not sure Cancellara will choose Riis.
On the other hand, Riis and Contador are tandem for more than 2 years. They both are aware of their interest and contribution to the team. That could be good foundation for perennial cooperation.
