Default Why is Saunier Duval in yellow?

For the Tour, ONCE's normally yellow kit was changed to pink. So why is
Saunier Duval allowed to ride in yellow?

Another great tradition thrown out the window for the sake of the all-
mighty euro. The Maillot Jaune should stand out in the peloton.

Now Spain has invaded France. The EU is a farce.

While the team is chartered out of Spain, Saunier Duval the sponsor is
a French company (though now owned by a German company), so both of
you are right.
