2004 Team COFIDIS CLEAN-UP MISSION After being embroiled in a drug scandal that began in January, the Cofidis team instituted the most stringent antidoping policies in the peloton. The team had hoped its troubles were behind it, but then on June 25 - just a week-and-a-half before the Tour - it was learned that team leader David Millar confessed to police that he had used EPO. After a huge hit like that, the French squad would love to win a stage or two at the Tour. After Millar was booted from the Tour, the team’s new sprinters Stuart O’Grady and Jimmy Casper may be Cofidis's best hopes for a stage win. In the mountains, Cofidis has high hopes for French climber David Moncoutié, Spaniard Iñigo Cuesta and Italian Guido Trentin.
