In my DB the jersey is called x-tap in the sponsor-table but "eus" in the team-table. I remember that I had trouble getting it to work until I replaced it with another abbreviation (euskaltel was more or less randomly selected).
I think that particular column is one of the things changed between PCM11 and PCM12 .cdb's though...

Having problems with the TAP jersey, as you may have seen in the prologue, does anyone know why? The jersey is just replaced by a default Cyanide one. I've tried renaming it x-michelin; x-sporting (there was a problem that was resolved by doing that earlier iirc), but neither work.
You have to make TAP the main sponsor in the db, TMM screwed something up there by giving TAP the jersey abbrevation but putting it as the secondary sponsor ( the game will take the first sponsor jersey for 3D games )
Viviani rode decently there. Cancellara finished 18th to show he's awake and alert, Geisinger did a good job in defending his great position before the mountains.
TOUR DE ROMANDIE
Stage 3: Bons-en-Chablais - Leysin
Today is the queen stage of the race, a very difficult day, which, despite only being 165km in length, encompasses 7 categorised climbs, the first four of which are in France. The penultimate climb of the day, the Col de la Croix, should split the field up as it ramps up to 11% for the last couple of kilometres, before we drop down for a punchy climb up to the village of Leysin.

Bienvenue en France! We are in the French town of Bons-en-Chablais today, ahead of a very challenging day in the mountains that will see us cross over the border into Switzerland via the Pas de Morgins. We have two hors categorie climbs to tackle, the Col de la Ramaz in France, and then the potentially stage deciding Col de la Croix in Switzerland. Also not to be forgotten is the 1st category Col du Corbier. All this climbing means that there is a maximum of 57 points available in the King of the Mountains competition today for any one rider.
We have some early attackers: David de la Fuente (ITV), Glenn Alan Chadwick (PGR), Jan Barta (IOQ), Alex Cano Ardila (CCC), Frederik Wilmann (HAI), Jesus Herrada (MAG). However neither Allianz nor Motorex seem particularly keen to let this move get away. Best placed is Herrada, 54 seconds behind Cancellara.
de la Fuente and Chadwick drop back, leaving the remaining four up front about a minute ahead of the peloton as we're straight into the climbing already - the 3rd category Col de Saxel
Herrada takes the mountain sprint ahead of Barta and Cano Ardila. A few other riders have been trying to join the break, but Amets Txurruka (ABC) and Luca Solari (MCS) have been consistently reeling them in.
The break is now at the foot of the Col de la Ramaz (13.7km at 7.2%) and seems well-established with a lead of around 3 minutes back to the peloton now
After a rather uneventful ascent, Cano Ardila launches the first attack for the mountain points. He is the strongest climber out of this group, so will be looking to take as many points as he can
He takes first place (just), with Herrada in second and Barta in third, thus putting the Colombian top of the KoM leaderboard already. The gap has rocketed up to 7 minutes, with around 115km to go.
Daniel Moreno (CAT) launches an attack at the top of the climb! Presumably he is just looking for mountain points, the finish is a very long way off!
Indeed the attack from Moreno was just for mountain points. Meanwhile after a rapid descent the break are at the top of the 2nd category Col de l'Encrenaz already - this time it’s Barta taking the honours
We're now onto the first category Col du Corbier. The break is nearing the top, but their advantage is diminishing, thanks to the work being put in at the front by TAP-Michelin. They have the best-placed rider out of those likely to survive today's stage, so it’s only logical they take up the reins at the front.
Cano Ardila sets off as the slopes reach 9%...
...and once again proves victorious
Caterham are on the attack again - but this time it's Thibaut Pinot, followed by Wesley Hoogenboom (ITV) and the omnipresent Moreno
This acceleration causes a break in the pack, we're down to 92 in front. No serious contenders have been caught behind
We’re now onto a long, false flat as we approach the Swiss border, with 70km to go it’s a good time to have a gander at the gap: 5 and a half minutes between the break and the peloton.
We have a serious attack! Laurens Ten Dam (PGR) has attacked on this false flat and has built up a 50 second buffer between himself and a TAP-controlled peloton
Once again Cano Ardila proves to be the strongest over the climb, as we cross into Switzerland, collecting 8 more points. He provisionally leads the mountains classification with 38 points, Herrada has 31, and Barta has 29.
Cano Ardila may be the best climber, but the same thing can't be said of his sprinting ability. He's easily outclassed in that department primarily by Herrada, and secondarily by Barta. With 40km to go the gap’s down to 3’20, with Ten Dam in no-man’s land around about half-way between the two groups
We're on to the beast that is the Col de la Croix. Lasting a full 18.7km, it averages 7.4%, but this doesn’t really take into account a flat section of around 2 kilometres ¾ of the way up; so the climbing is more or less consistenly aroun 8%. Motorex have taking over pacing duties, with Tschopp, Zaugg and Marcel Wyss at the front. Cancellara also looks to be sitting fairly comfortably about 10 wheels back.
Bart de Clercq (LPU) attacks! Motorex don't seem unduly worried though; and he quickly establishes a 30 second gap
He's now been joined by Wesley Hoogenboom (ITV) as the big guns start to make their moves. Meanwhile, up ahead, Ten Dam has made contact with the front group, who's advantage has rapidly diminished to just over 2 minutes.
De Clercq can mount no further challenge and is caught by the swarming peloton, but Hoogenboom keeps on going!
Thibaut Pinot (CAT) is next on the attack, trying to bridge the gap to Hoogenboom, who has almost a minute's advantage already!
Ten Dam and Cano Ardila are now the leaders on the road, having shed their weaker companions with still 13km to go to the top of the climb! Their advantage back to the peloton has increased slightly to 2’45
31km to go, and with the gap increasing, especially to Hoogenboom who now has a 2’36 advantage over the peloton, Motorex turn to Geisinger to up the pace. They seem to feel that Cancellara will be able to hold on!
6km to the top of the climb and the fireworks have started! Sammy Sanchez (ABC) has launched a testing attack with Chris Froome (TUG) in his wheel. A few metres further behind Roman Kreuziger (NAC) desperately tries to get onto the wheel
Up front, we have Ten Dam and Hoogenboom together as we reach the little flat section before the brutal last 5kms which average about 10%. They have 2’43 to the Froome group, and 3’07 to the main field.
Kreuziger, after struggling to find Froome's wheel, has launched a big attack, with Froome looking to follow
Hesjedal (BAR), and Zoltan (TAP) realise that this is the move, and launch a big counter.
Now that we are on this little flat part before the last 5kms, let’s have a look at how the race is stacking up at the moment:

Sánchez
Sanchez has ridden past Froome and Kreuziger, who have now been joined by Zoltan and Hesjedal and are losing a bit of ground to the peloton
Mathijs Ruiter (ING) and Denis Menchov (NAC) are the latest people to try their luck at getting away from the peloton, which has now started to really shed riders and is down to just 17. Ruiter needs time ahead of the field for tomorrow's time-trial but it doesn't look like that's going to happen at the moment.
Hoogenboom has once more set off alone. He takes maximum points at the top. Zoltan, Sanchez, Hesjedal, and Pinot form the chase group 32 seconds behind, whilst Froome (!), Ten Dam, and Kreuziger are dropped.
Details of the riders in the 15-man peloton for you:
So a rapid downhill section means that Sanchez, Hesjedal and Zoltan, who are all good descenders, manage to catch Hoogenboom, who is not. Froome and Pinot are 29 seconds behind; and Menchov, Kreuziger, Ruiter, and Ten Dam are a further 48 seconds back, but with a minute’s gap to that group of 15 mentioned earlier
Here we go, 5kms to go and the front riders can see the flamme rouge of this difficult, short climb to Leysin. Froome has distanced Pinot, whilst the Ruiter group are losing ground rapidly to the yellow jersey group; thanks to some huge turns on the front by Geisinger.
Pinot is caught by a resurgent Kreuziger, who is nearing up to Froome's wheel! An impressive acceleration. The front four have a substantial lead at the moment, around the 2 minute mark back to Cancellara; so Zoltan is virtual race leader
Hoogenboom is paying for his efforts earlier today as he is dropped by a big Zoltan acceleration - only Sanchez is really able to follow!
500m to go and Zoltan is well in the lead with riders scattered in ones and twos across the road!
It's a stage win, and more importantly perhaps, the yellow jersey for Jakab Zoltan and for TAP-Michelin! Sanchez is second, while Hesjedal is a fair way back in third. Hoogenboom hangs on for fourth almost a minute ahead of Froome who had a bit of an off-day today, it has to be said. We’re now waiting for the yellow jersey group to come in.
Jose Rujano surprisingly proves by far the man with the most reserves in that group. He's 6th, ahead of Ruiter, Kloden, Scarponi, and Vinokourov as Cancellara arrives safely within the group, but 3 minutes down on Zoltan.
It was rather close, but thankfully no one missed the time cut today.

General Classification
Zoltan has a slender lead over Sanchez - all up for grabs tomorrow, and Cancellara drops out of pole position but maintains a top 10 position.
