National Teams

Cyclingnews-
After a difficult Tour de France with one doping scandal after another
and bitter tension between the organisers, Amaury Sport Organisation
(ASO) and cycling's governing body, the UCI, there was a great deal of
speculation that the Tour de France would take drastic action for next
year's event and embrace the model of national teams instead of trade
teams. Some of this speculation came about because the Tour de
l'Avenir, another race organised by the ASO, returned to the national
teams model this year.

I like it..and take some of the zillions of $ out of it.

It worked wonders for the British national team at the Tour in 1967.

Yeah like the Soviets, Chinese, and US never ran doping programs and
pumped massive amounts of cash into competition for the glory of the
Nation.
Jingoism is definitely preferable to corporate greed.
