The teams also requested that any device used should be fitted by the UCI and not the team mechanics, which the UCI were trying to force through.<\/p>\n<p>This is a breaking news story, so please check the online version for updates throughout the morning.<\/p>\n<p>We have obtained the following letter, which was sent to the UCI over the matter\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Photo courtesy of SWpix.
