1. FDJ, Lotto, Argos and Saxo 拿到WorldTour 入場券, Katusha 卻被火了



這不只是知名部落客的乳摸，CyclingNews，VeloNews， CyclingWeekly 也都報導了

UCI 昨天發布的新聞稿：The request from the team Katusha for registration in first division has been rejected. In accordance with UCI regulations, this team’s application has been forwarded to the UCI administration, so that the latter may assess the possibility of registering this team as a UCI Professional Continental Team.

這句話我看得頭都暈了...到底俄羅斯暴發戶跟UCI　哪兒不對盤？


要知道，成為WorldTour 車隊，表示是接頂尖的比賽都有份兒(三大賽，重要的古典賽)，不用死巴著主辦單為求外卡

Lotto-Belisol：就龜波勝場多，小VDB 拿個環法第四...只靠他倆有什麼看頭

FDJ：很明顯的，他們就像夜空中的煙火--璀璨而短暫...我全不寄望

Argos-Shimano：就衝刺行...古典賽？多日賽？單飛勝？ 陪榜機會居多囉～

Saxo Bank：今年貧弱的表現，還能拿到兩年賽證：其一得感謝康爺鳳還巢拿了個杯水車薪的環西冠軍，其二要感謝UCI 刷掉Katusha...不過就他們近來頻頻挖角補強，倒是挺令人期待Riis 明年會端出什麼菜


想想J-Rod 以及他的隊友們今年帶給大家多少悸動！ 希望能趕緊釐清為何UCI 不要Katusha 這個票房保證。如果是財務文件沒備齊或文書有缺漏都還不太要緊，如果跟Alexandr Kolobnev 有關就不妙了(點這兒，還有這兒)...那麼Astana 未來連申請Pro Continental 賽證也將困難重重，更遑論回到WorldTour 了


唉..說到這裡，天都黑一邊...
