Giro d'Italia wildcards prove their worth

The four wildcard teams invited to the 2012 Giro d'Italia certainly enriched the event, lighting up the race at various points over the three weeks. While Garmin-Barracuda's Ryder Hesjedal and Katusha's Joaquim Rodriguez fought out an intriguing battle for the pink jersey, there was plenty to be proud of for Colnago CSF-Inox, Farnese Vini-Selle Italia, Androni-Venezuela and Team NetApp.
