Bruyneel vs. Lefevre

[Edward Waffle]

From the cyclenews.com preview of the next stage:

"There is certainly no love lost between USPS director Johan Bruyneel and Quick.Step-Davitamon
manager Patrick Lefevre so this might condition the outcome of Sunday's Stage 8."

Can anyone fill me in on this? What is the history between them?

Thanks.

I always find it interesting when everyone else knows what the focus is going to be and then someone
signs and is shocked, shocked.

Right now there's some **** going on about Belgian u-21 Jurgen Vandenbroeck, former WC TT at the
juniors two years ago. Vandenbroeck had a pro-contract in Lefevere's team but is now about to join
USPS. I believe he gave his word to Bruyneel without telling it to Lefevere. So it's pretty much the
same **** as it was with Boonen but now in the other direction.
