For all you Italian cycling fans (if there are any left)... it is a DONE deal... Cipo and Pantani
will be riding on the same team in 2003... The team name will be Mercatone Uno-Elitron. Others on
the team will be climbers Roberto Conti, Spanish climber Clavero and sprinter Fabio Fontanelli
among others...

No sir, it's not going to work. They didn't sign and Pantani basically gave up.

There is something amiss when Cipo has to do a deal like this just to scrap a team together. Why
would Aqua e Sapone pull out after only one year, which was greater than they ever could have
hoped for, let alone having the sitting World Champion under contract. I have a suspicion that his
farciful mid-season 'retirement' had more to do with bouncing paychecks than anything else..
Should it surprise anyone that in this world recession that companies can't afford to throw money
out the window with ANY kind of indirect advertising?
