Lance Armstrong and Johan Bruyneel are not making any secret that they are looking for a new Sponsor, to potentially taking over the ASTANA team. Of course such situations always bring up rumors.
When the GIRO stopped in Austria (Mayerhofen & Innsbruck) the aircraft of the Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich was sighted in Innsbruck. Abramovich is know for sponsoring numerous sport teams and he's the owner of the UK football club Chelsea. During the latest credit crisis supposedly he lost a fair share of his money, sources say up to 80%.
It's a coincides that he was in Innsbruck but could Armstrong turn to him as a potential future sponsor??
Will see if there is some truth behing this story otherwise just something for the rumor-mill
