Ferretti’s new team takes shape
Stuart O’Grady was still on the market, so Giancarlo Ferretti signed him up to his new team. He will most likely be joined by fellow Aussie and teammate Matt White. Ferretti’s team have already signed quite a few riders for next year. O’Grady and White will join Salvatore Commesso, Andrea Tonti, Cristian Moreni, Paolo Valoti and Serhyi Matveyev.
The director sportifs all remain from Fassa, Bruno Cenghialta, Alberto Volpi, Alessandro Giannelli and Mario Chiesa.
Rumors originally pointed to the sponsor being IKEA, but it looks like it will be Ericsson a subsidiary of Sony.
