I disagree completely: the powerhouse HTC-Highroad team left a void in the Tour. Personally I love sprint stages. I love the drama as the breakaway gets hunted down, as the speed of the peloton cranks up and HTC-HR was magnificent, probably the best team there has ever been in those situations. Their lead out train was amazing to watch, and I love watching Cav win personally.
Plus what about when they shredded the peloton in 2009?
Bollocks to it, it was a huge shame that they lost their sponsors and I think the Pro-Tour needs a team like them. I hope OPQS can match them
