It is not a problem of Pat. It is a problem of Pegasus. The Commision of Licences are independent. And they have empresarial experience. If they give the OK to Schleck-team is because the Luxembourg project presented a bank guarantee for the total-budget. And if they don't accept the Australian...

When Chris White is going to announce the sponsor for 2011? I don't know how Chris White works, but it is possible all the ProTour project has NO sponsor and will be a new Linda McCartney bluff? I repeat: I don't know anything about White. But we are in November and he doesn't told anything...

Dear Hazuki, It is not correct to say that Rui Sousa had problems with doping and finally say that EIGHT years ago he was in Milaneza and Milaneza had problems with OTHER riders. In this case, 90% of the professional riders have problems with the doping because all has been in professional...

Yes,I think the wish to sign Gonçalves too. The problem for Liberty Seguros is that they have to pay the sponsoring of a lot of races in Portugal, to pay the sponsoring of the National Team, to pay the sponsoring of continental team, to pay the sponsoring of under23 team and to pay the...

Hi, Sorry, but I don't remember any scandal of doping with Rui Sousa. Could you refresh my memory?

Yes, it is sure they are not going to sign anymore rider. Liberty Seguros has two ideas for the roster of 2011: 1. All the riders have to be Portuguese riders. 2. The riders can not have any relation with doping. It means that options of Spanish riders or Joao Cabreira never was in the...

I like this team too, but I think it is impossible they can run the Giro of 2011. You have to think that the organizer is going to invite the first 17 teams of the World Ranking. But for the ther five plazes (wild card), there are a lot of options: 1. Team of Schleck: Porte, Cancellara...

Libertyne, I am agree with you. I believe in Liberty Seguros of Portugal and I don't believe in Liberty Seguros of Spain. Why? Because I want to know what a company do when they have problems. And it is not only my opinion. If you are in the invoices business, you know that Liberty Seguros is a...

I don't understand "unfortunate choice of sponsor". First of all, Liberty Seguros of Spain-Manolo Saiz is very different of Liberty Seguros of Portugal-Vitor Paulo Branco & Americo. The final situation was the same, but there are no connections between the two projects. Liberty Seguros of...

Daotec, Forget (at least in this moment) the following names: 1. Francisco Ventoso. It is not sure. Also, I think Unzue won't sign 2. Oscar Pujol. It is not sure 3. Luis Pasamontes Rodriguez. It is not sure that he can continue 4. Alejandro Valverde. It is not a rider for 2011 5...

I read in the forum that Café de Colombia has a budget of 6 millions of euros. And it is not truth. Teams as Loteria de Boyacá, when travelled to Europe in 2009, has a budget of 800.000 (they told in the Spanish newspaper) and they always said that Café de Colombia has more budget than them...

Libertine remember me some details that I forgot when I wrote the teams interested to be professionals teams in 2011. NEWS POSSIBLE PROFESSIONAL TEAMS UNITED HEALTHCARE TYPE1 SPIDERTECH PETROCHEMICAL TABRIZ COLOMBIA ES PASIÓN CAJA RURAL BRETAGNE NETAPP. Ok. We have to add this German...

There are 28 teams interested to be professional, but you have to think that there are other six (the team that finally don't achieve the ProTour licence). The most logical is to think that 21 are the team that has been professional teams in 2010. And you can add: UNITED HEALTHCARE TYPE1...

Contentpolis Ah, another thing: some post ago, someone asked about Contentpolis and told that if it is the Skil-Shimano of the Vuelta. Well, maybe it is a good comparation. But Contentpolis has some different aspects. For example, it is a Spanish team. And it is the most important...

Tondo-Vuelta Hi, I am new in the forum and my level of english is not good... so sorry for my mistakes. I am surprised because you write a lot of times about the options of Ezequiel Mosquera in the Tour of Spain (la Vuelta), but you don't write anything about Xavi Tondo. This is a rider...
