Pay no attention to my early-season results, says T-Mobile's Tour contender Jan Ullrich.

"Why should we follow the same paths before the Tour? I want to take my time to make it back at my best level."

Ullrich says he's "relieved" he had a healthy off-season.

"All my training is based on the Tour so that I can start it at my very best this time."
