Relax continues team sponsorship

By Monika Prell and By Antonio J. Salmerón

Relax will continue its sponsorship of the cycling team Relax GAM for 2008. According to todociclismo, the company had the option to transform itself into the sponsor of the Spanish national football team, but Relax expects that the cycling team continue being a good source of publicity. Relax, a firm which produces mattresses, had previously expressed doubt about continuing its sponsorship and was open to another sponsor taking over title sponsorship.

The Ministry of Defence will be the team's co-sponsor, and the text "soldados.com" will be on the jersey. The web address links to a page offering information about how young people can sign up for the army. El Heraldo de Aragón confirmed the news while also saying that Aragonese cyclists Ángel Vicioso, José Miguel Elías and Jorge García have renewed their contracts.
