Cunego - shades of Fignon
I sure hope Martinelli has a nice Fireside Chat with Guimard.
Quoting and translating from memory from a long ago interview in ``Velo'' magazine, Guimard said: ``In retopect, I wouldn't even have allowed Fignon to ride the two Tours de France that he did win.'' Apparently Guimard thought Fignon was just too young. -- le Vent a Dos Davey Crockett Six-Day site: http://members.rogers.com/sixday/sixday.html |

Guimard not only allowed Fignon to ride the Tour and the Giro the same year at 23, but even insisted on it to please the sponsor (Renault). That was a crime. Benjo Maso |
