Slipstream-Chipotle’ secret weapon: “Chef Willy,” Slipstream-Chipotle’s Swiss chef, has been cooking for American teams for decades at major tours. He was cooking for the 7-Eleven team when Andy Hampsten won the Giro, and he was there for every one of Lance Armstrong’s Tour victories. Now Slipstream-Chipotle hopes he will bring the same kind of good fortune.
Barred from the kitchen at the posh Hotel Torre Normanna (temporary residence until stage 1 of Slipstream-Chipotle, High Road, Saunier Duval-Scott, AG2R-La Mondiale, Rabobank, and CSC) south of Palermo, he has time at dinner to joke with David Millar. | Photo: Lennard Zinn
