Team CSC's Fränk Schleck improved to fifth place overall after the eighth stage of the Tour de Suisse. "We had three riders in the favourite's group and Fränk advanced one spot, when José Angel Gomez was dropped along the way," said team director Dan Frost to team-csc.com. "All in all it was a good result for us, and we might be able to advance even further after the time trial tomorrow. Apart from that Cancellara is of course very keen to make a result, so it will be interesting to see if he's able to beat Ullrich, who seems very strong at the moment."
