OK so the big spaniard is Big Mig so who was his underperforming successor. Riis won the Tour next but hard to argue he was under performing so will have a punt at an A for Abraham Olano who took over team leadership the year after.[Castle Donington Ladies FC - going up in '22]0

I guessed it as some sort of Astana or Saiz reference, got it from the charitable bit obviously
**EDIT- Liberty-Seguros reference also?***
More guessing, 1. WADA?0 -
Another punt at 5. Thought I was in there with SuperMario Cipollini.
Staying with the Caesar theme, came, saw, conquered, guess at Sandy Casar, so
5 S (or C though got bounced on Cipollini)0
