Yes my team received sponsorship in different forms like financial support , in kind payment , team sponsorship, corporate sponsorship and tax relief.
these sponsorship allow us to be in good condition on the races and training because thank's to this we have a bike, sport equipments like helmet , shoes and clothes and we don't pay our travel for the races so the sponsorship of the teams are so important to support us financially.
So yes for me it's indispensable in cycling to have sponsorship because it's to expensive to finance yourself and the teams need minimum 350 000 € just for one saison. So all help, even small help, are important to us .
