And the first doping allegations start...

 

Via // bbc.co.uk

 

"Europcar boss Jean-Rene Bernaudeau was having a pleasant meal in Paris on Wednesday night when he received a call to say L'Equipe, the Tour's newspaper of record, were going to run a doping story about his team in the morning.

 

Bernaudeau told a packed press conference on Thursday that he knew "nothing" about the French anti-doping authorities' investigation into his team and was "shocked" when he heard about it."

Imo it is pretty obvious that Europcar did something to boost their performance in the tdf last year. It will be interesting to see what the allegations are.

Yip. Always been that way between Brits and french fries. Not the best relasionship. Is it my imagination or was that whole presentation seriously cheesy and under budget?

I've always found team presentations to be a bit of a funny ceremony...

Yeah, I think RSN and now Bruyneel are fast becoming a bit of an embarrassment to the sport.

 

.......and how they can be serious about Horner for GC is quite beyond me, I will be surprised if he makes top 20 to be honest.
