Samu a go for Worlds road race; no TT

Samu Sánchez has as expected been selected to represent Spain in the World Championship road race. He'll be the protected rider along with triple-winner Freire, while Haimar Zubeldia has been called up for the first time since Zolder 2002. Haimar has come back surprisingly strong after his pre-Tour crash, starring in Sán Sebastián, Québec and Montréal. None of them will ride the time trial though, as LL Sánchez apparently had yet another change of heart after intitially opting against it.
