Full devo team.

Cofidis really needs to step up their game. Nice to see that the lineair predictions are still being followed more or less.

Haha yes, as discussed a week ago I think in (mostly) the PCT teams there are riders which bring their own sponsors to have a pro contract. In the past also with Vini Fantini, Wanty Groupe Goubert, Burgos among others. And ofc you can point at the Kulsets and Naberman haha.

I still see Team Sky, Jumbo-Visma, Visma, Rabobank, Quickstep, Movistar, Caisse d'Epargne, Euskaltel, ONCE, Bahrain TBV Vuelta edition yesterday, Selle Italia iconic advertising jersey, Bora, UAE, Nibaly Italian champion Astana jersey (2014 I think). And of course the yellow jersey, pink jersey...

But back in the day around 2010 both teams existed! The nowadays Euskaltel-Euskadi team was a feeder team for the WT-team (or then it was ProTour I think). Then the WT team collapsed (after the first year with all those foreigners) and a few years later the once feeder team become a conti team...

If you consider them the same team. Even PCS doesnt (which ofc is correct) but they do with Q365 and MTN for example.

Who's the commentator? Alejandro VALVERDE? Might recognise his voice.

He should do some training with Abrahamsen.

Finally Giancarlo Ferretti gets his team!

Renewi Tour: Unibet and Wagner; more to come?
