Below is the list of teams racing in this year's Tour de France. Notably absent from the list is the current team of last year's winner (Alberto Contador), Team Astana. Last year, Contador won with the Discovery Channel team and in the off-season pretty much everyone from the DC team moved to Team Astana after they were disassembled after last year's doping problems. However, even with these wholesale changes, the ASO (the organization who runs the Tour), has decided not to invite them. See this article for more detail.
