Berlin will not bid for the start of the Tour de France in the coming years, but may look at at a bid to host the track world championships. Economic reasons dictate the chan𝄹ge in plans, according to the politicians involved.
168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Hosting the start of the Tour would coast about 10 million Euros, “a damned high sum of money,” Beꦏrlin Sport minister Andreas Statzkowksi told the Tagesspiegel website. “We will dismiss that idea.”
The world champio🌄nships would be much more affordable, only about 1.5 million Euro. “We are considering whether we should bid for that,” he said. The Berlin velodrome is an appropriate venue.
Such a world championship, which could take place in the next five to six years, would “also attract꧒ foreign guests, which is good for Berlin's image.”
