I have no clue (assuming it's ever happened which is doubtful). Again, they can say all they want to, but until it's the day of the race and they put Lance in the AG race and lose the opportunity to have Lance at the front and not in some pack, I'll be very skeptical of all of this (again, assuming he even makes the start, which I'm guessing is more of an issue than anything).
BTW, I posted what WTC said in response to the "will Lance get a pass" worry that the pro's had. Yes, they've said he has to qualify if he wants to be a pro, but like I said due to potential sponsor pressure, potential media presence, I'll be very skeptical that WTC actually keeps Lance off the front start.
Edit: That's why I said, it's really not going to matter how Lance is classified. I think somehow someway Lance is put at the front of this race to start.
