 Hankook - Ping An Bank 
Jersey
Main-Sponsors
Hankook is the major sponsor of our Asian based team. The South Korean company is one of world's biggest tire company's. Based in Seoul the company started under the name Chosun in 1941. In 1968 they changed their name too Hankook (HANGUK). Hankook has several plants in the world especially in China and South Korea but also in Hungary and the USA.
Ping An Bank is a chinese joint-stock commercial bank which is located in Shenzhen. Ping An Bank is part of the Ping An Group (which also includes insurance and asset management). Only interested in the Chinese market, as the company is only active in China.
Co-Sponsors
Hyundai Motor Company is mostly known for his cars: Hyundai and KIA. On the other hand they even make autocars and trucks. Hyundai is also an important partner of the FIFA, so we are glad to have them onboard.
 Pissei is one of the most important technical partners of the team. The "Cuore di Italia" (heart of Italy) is are the ones who designed our clothes. Pissei is mostly known for their partnership with several Italian youth teams and in another reality they will be shirtsponsors of the Southeast team in 2016.
 Fuji is our Japanese - American owned bike supplier. Name and logo both refer to the Mount Fuji.
Shimano are the ones who provide the team with their great groupsets.
Samsung provides the team with great communication tools, which makes it easier to twitter.
 Fast Forward creates great cycling wheels which look definately great with our Hankook tires.
Bardiani Valvole makes valves for the food industry. Bardiani is owned by Luca Bardiani, a cycling addicted man who wants to give young guys the chance to turn professional. Bardiani is part of the CSF Inox Group
CSF Inox is another part of that group. CSF Inox has created more then 600 different pumps for the food industry.
Spoiler I really understand if you don't want to read all the upper shit after a day of work. That's why I'll give you some time to entertain. It might be even shitier, but I'll try to make this HQ filled with some different styled music

Stunning jersey, great design, and also an interesting project to see unfold as most of the other Asian teams are at higher level right now. I like your italian smaller focus and your focus for young riders that the partnership with Bardiani should hopefully bring, I know that we will talk a lot during transfers. Good luck mate!

Interview with Stefano Zanatta
TBW: Hello Stefano, what do you think about the team you recently signed for.
SZ: Well for me it was a big opportunity to sign for the Hankook - Ping An bank team. The sponsors have already done some big investments like a brilliant service course in San Donà di Piave.
TBW: As some of our readers don't know what a service course is, please can you explain it?
SZ: Yes for sure. A service course is actually a big hangar where pro cycling teams store all their bikes, wheels, clothes, ... It is also the place where the riders join the staff for races in Europe. Also stored in there:
- 5 Hyundai i40 (Support cars)
- 1 Hyundai H-1 people (VIP Car)
- 1 Iveco Daily (To store our material during races)
- 1 Fiat Ducato (Team Camper)
TBW: What about the riders for next season?
SZ: At the moment all riders do have to sign yet.
TBW: Is there any chance you can release some names? Which nations will the riders come from?
SZ: I can't give you some names, but I will point out the structure of the team. About half of the team will be European riders, the other half will be Asian. We will try to make a strong backbone with 4 - 5 Italian speaking riders, they will be the team's leaders and teachers.
TBW: What do you mean with teachers?
SZ: These guys will show the others how to ride in a peloton ...
TBW: Can't you give a hint already?
SZ: Well yes, we will try to sign "Il Cobra"  and a rider from San Donà di Piave with a kinda explosive name.
TBW: Interesting, any more to mention.
SZ: The teams management also want both the Korean champs who still have a contract at team Indosat - ANZ. "Don Giulio" is also on our wishlist and the same goes for "Kuba". Most likely there will be one rider on loan, probably an Italian rider.
TBW: Thanks for the interview.
SZ: You're welcome.

I think I can actually say that in all the craziness of Man game, that would definitely still be in the craziest.
