Le Tour 2011: The Director's Car
Photo by Simon Mottram
We asked Yann Le Moenner, General Director of ASO, about his impressions of this year's Tour:
"I was particularly impressed by the incredible number of spectators at the beginning, but above all in the mountains. Admittedly, the performances of the French riders were the initial reason for this enthusiasm, but the variety of flags, in particular the Norwegian ones at the finish, was remarkable. As for the smooth running of the competition, although I have the viewpoint of an organiser who is concerned by safety during the race in particular, I too was won over by the sports performances that we witnessed this year. The guests that I had in my car were very enthusiastic about the race and asked our driver, Jean-Claude Bagot, the former rider, dozens of questions. This edition was wonderful from beginning to end."

The best race in years, as we all agree. Let's have even more of the descents like the one into Pinerolo. That whole climb/ descent was one the best moments of racing in years. Woops, it was in Italy! There are loads of roads like that in France too. Please, organisers, don't get scared by cries for an end to 'dangerous' small roads with corners. Some of the moments in the race this year just showed how much more this event can become even MORE visually exciting to an even wider public. And I'm not talking about the crashes, but about the bike-handling and exciting attacking racing, levelled out by a seemingly cleaner field of racers at last. Finally, "Chapeau" to Contador, (off the juice???!!), for racing so aggressively in the face of inevitable defeat!
