Tour de France 2010: Team Presentation Part III

Team Presentation: Thursday, July 1st
After Euskaltel-Euskadi, Katusha Team (Russia) came on.



The one who got interviewed was Robbie McEwen. As seen and heard on TV, he spoke in perfect Flemish (or Dutch) and the interviewer kept speaking in English. It was funny.


Omega Pharma-Lotto (Belgium) was the next. Jurgen Van den Broeck spoke.

I don't remember which language they spoke in, Flemish?



Cervelo Test Team (Switzerland) followed. Carlos Sastre was interviewed.


The way MCs asked Sastre questions was a bit rude but Carlos managed it cool.

He even had occasional smiles during the interview.



Liquigas-Doimo (Italy) came on board and Ivan Basso was in the spotlight.




BBox Bouygues Telecom (France)
Thomas Voekler wore a plain generic French National Champion jersey, not a BBox design one. He could not get one by that day? He won a stage.



Yukiya Arashiro, the only Japanese rider this year.



Another talented rider Pierrick Fedrigo. He eventyally won a stage.



What will happen to the riders of BBox next year?
