Found this overview.
It also shows Tinkoff jersey which is basically the inverse version of last year with yellow on top of blue.
Also interesting point in above article: Giant shorts are a copy of Blanco shorts.

Roche said he's riding the Giro only because it goes through Ireland. Tour is his aim.

Totally agree with you on the black colour culture, there is too many teams wearing black now  |

Not surprising considering Blanco basically was Giant.

Tinkoff's basically is this:
"We can't have too much yellow, so we'll put more yellow". |

Haha, so they thought "last year was Saxo-Tinkoff with blue above yellow, now it's Tinkoff-Saxo, so it's yellow above blue now!"??

Nope. Team Saxo Bank - Tinkoff Bank was worse...

Don't quite see why Tinkoff-Saxo would be any worse than Giant-Shimano or any other team's name with two head sponsors. |

Team Sky switches powermeters brand from the finest SRM to the cheap Stages ones.

Voeckler breaks his collarbone which will rule him out of the TDU. If it comes to it Bernaudeau will almost certainly need Voeckler's points to survive.
