Ferrari - British Airways Cycling
Hi, welcome to the home of the new force in sprinting!!!
My name is Wiley and i will be running the new outfit.
Main Sponsor;
An Italian car manufacturer. With a prestigious history in motorsport they are branching out. Speed defines their cars, and now their cycling.
Co-Sponsor;
A British airline (of course). Quality is the key to their success and that attention to detail translates to cycling.
Of course this means the team will focus around Italy and the UK. But we're not limited. The renown of the sponsors allows us to spread across the globe for races and riders.
Expect many sprint victories and breakaways.
Feel free to ask questions and comment.

Team Training in Italy
As the season opener in Australia draws near Ferrari-BA prepares.
The team spent most of the off-season together around Mugello in Italy, putting in the miles and learining to train together.
A lot of work was done on lead-outs using the race track just outside of Mugello.
The whole team has been on good form, and picking a team to start the year is tricky.
As well as the 7 taking part in the TDU, the whole team is going to Adelaide for some more training. Ferrari-BA > Psuedo Man Game
Good luck
