18/01/10 - Cervélo TestTeam target the Classics and Tour de France in 2010

The Cervélo TestTeam held its official presentation in Portugal on Sunday, confident it can build on its debut season in 2009 and be even more successful in 2010.

The women’s squad topped the UCI team ranking but is looking for more stage race and classic success in 2010 as well as the top spot in the individual UCI rankings.

Thor Hushovd and Heinrich Haussler want a major Classics win for the men’s team after going so close, so often in 2009, while Carlos Sastre is to target the Giro d'Italia. Hushovd is ready to ride even more aggressively to win a second green jersey at the Tour de France, and then both he and Haussler will target the World Championships in Australia.

The Cervélo TestTeam has a redesigned jersey for 2010, with the Cervelo é filling the back of the jersey. The team issue R3SL bike has also been given a new look and the team will use SRAM components alongside Rotor cranks, 3T bars, Fizik saddles and Zipp wheels.
