RadioShack-Nissan aims to defend yellow with stage win

Despite a tumultuous build-up to the 2012 Tour de France, the RadioShack-Nissan team managed to respond to all the criticism with a stunning performance from their time trial specialist Fabian Cancellara. The Swiss rider won the 6.4km long prologue in Liège, Belgium, and he has the honour of wearing the yellow jersey during the first stage, a loop from Liège to neighbouring town Seraing.
