ONCE -) Liberty Seguros

But apparently the Liberty Seguros, as reported by CN was true.

Then again, maybe Stayer is a co-sponsor?

ONCE to become Liberty Seguros

ONCE-Eroski team director Manolo Saiz has announced the name of the new sponsor that will take
over the team: Liberty Seguros. The company, part of multinational financial and insurance giant
Liberty Mutual, will sponsor the team for the next five years, ensuring that Saiz has plenty of
scope to work on improving the squad.

The team composition will be much the same as this year's ONCE squad, with riders like Isidro
Nozal, Igor González de Galdeano, Koldo Gil and Allan Davis all part of it. It's not yet confirmed
whether Joseba Beloki will remain with the team, although he has not yet signed for another squad.

ONCE, the Spanish blind society, has sponsored the team for the last 15 years. During this time
the team has harvested more than 400 victories including four Vueltas a Espana, two World Time
Trial Championships and many other stage race victories. The Giro d'Italia and the Tour de France
eluded the team, although it recorded several podium finishes in these two grand tours.

ONCE eventually decided to bow out this year due to the fact that everyone in Spain now recognises
ONCE. It will however sponsor the Spanish paralympic team for the Games in Athens next year.

Good deal.

I hope they got the same or higher budget. Things were not looking good over there for a bit.

That is nice for them but you still need to attribute what you post.
