168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Omega Pharma-QuickStep is the most successful team so far this season, with 13 wins, and Lefevere will be looking to 𝓡pick up a win this weekend🅘 with marquee riders Tom Boonen and Sylvain Chavanel both in form.
In this exclusive video with Cyclingnews, Lefevere talks about how he and the team were criticised over the past two seasons for being ‘t🍒oo old fashioned’ and not winning🔯 enough races.
In the winter the team signed a raft of talented🍰, proven winners with Tony Martin and Levi Leipheimer among﷽ the new signings.
