Savoldelli: Armstrong is one-up on his rivals

Recently retired Paolo Savoldelli believes his former-teammate Lance Armstrong is a notch above the competition. The Bergamo native expects 2009 to hold more successes for the American who announced his comeback earlier this year.

"They tried to cut him down in every way, but it was not possible. I can guarantee to you that there is no magic potion, I raced with him, believe me, he has something more than the others," said Savoldelli to Tuttosport.
