Im vergangenen Jahr erlangten die UCI Video Regeln erstmals Aufmerksamkeit, beim Sainsonfinale mussten die Video-Leute der Teams 800 EUR extra zahlen um vor Ort filmen zu dürfen.
Das Santa Cruz Syndicate Team hat darüber sogar ein extra Video produziert
Die 800 EUR WM-Regel bleibt für die Videographen der Teams bestehen, andere Videoproduzenten müssen auf Minutenbasis zahlen.
Hier die Regeln im Detail:
