    Someone had to replace BMC as the place successful careers go to die.

    Direct Energie - formerly Europcar (I think).

    The company was acquired by Total and now Total are going to use their own branding and increase the budget.

    So it's official then: French cycling is a Total shambles. :P

    No budget boost apparently. Will be rebranded from Paris Roubaix
