2004 Team RAGT SEMENCES - MG ROVER UNDERPOWERED This is one of the weakest teams that has ridden a modern Tour, and perhaps the only man who can save the squad from complete embarrassment is the former Tour KoM winner Christophe Rinero. Men like Guillaume Auger and Frédéric Finot will do their best to join long-distance breaks to get the sponsor some television time, but their hopes of taking a stage are zero. The organizers should have given RAGT’s place to a solid team like Landbouwkrediet-Colnago or Acqua & Sapone.
