Nissan withdraw co-title sponsorship of RadioShack-Trek team

Nissan has withdrawn its co-title sponsorship of the RadioShack-Trek team with immediate effect.
Frank's withdrawal compounded what had already been a torrid few months, with rumours of infighting being followed by an injury to Andy at the Criterium du Dauphine that ruled him out of the Tour. There have been bright spots, however, most notably Fabian Cancellara claiming victory in the Tour prologue and the squad later winning the team classification. Nissan was added to the team name ahead of the 2012 season after a merger of RadioShack and Leopard Trek.
