Direct Energie present new look
The Direct Energie team traded the green of Europcar in 2015 for a black and yellow design that reflects their new title sponsor. Thomas Voeckler, Bryan Coquard and Romain Sicard are joined by Sylvain Chavanel, who moved across from IAM Cycling. The team's presentation took place today in Paris.
Jean-René Bernaudeau fought to keep the team afloat after missing out on a WorldTour berth in 2015 due to budgetary issues. The future of the squad was uncertain as late as last year's Tour de France before finally confirming Direct Energie as sponsor in September.
Even with the new sponsor, the registration as a Pro Continental team was delayed for Direct Energie after a reported dispute emerged with equipment sponsor Colnago.
The Direct Energie team will race this season on BH bikes.
