He also won the Giro d'Italia in 1989, having been runner-up in 1984, and the Milan – San Remo Classic two times. * Mark Renshaw's Headbutts show (Video) He announced in June 2009 that he had advanced cancer of the digestive system and was undergoing chemotherapy. As a commentator with the France 2 television channel, he was present at the 2010 Tour despite his illness. * Amazing Roger Federer trickshot (Video) * While Cadel Evans gently weeps (Video) Upon retirement Fignon managed races, notably Paris–Nice until it was taken over by ASO, the organiser of Tour de France, in 2004. Fignon remains organiser for races such as Paris–Corrèze. He criticised French cycling, lamenting in L'Equipe that, ''The sports directors don't do a good job any more. They lack competence and don't have authority over their riders. The non-results of French teams are not only the consequences of doping''alluding to the stringent French doping control. On his relationships with Cyrille Guimard and Bernard Hinault, Fignon said that with Bernard Hinault, Guimard already found a champion, whereas with himself, Guimard made a champion. Therefore his bond with Guimard was stronger than Hinault's bond with Guimard. In June 2009, Fignon revealed that he was undergoing chemotherapy for metastatic cancer. He also admitted having used doping products. Fignon's cancer was diagnosed in spring 2009. It is now known it originated in his lungs. Fignon has written a book on his life ''Nous étions jeunes et insouciants - We were young and carefree'' released in June 2009. * Hot Pages * End of the Tour de Lance (Video) * Dallas star calls for solar energy (Video)... * Miguel Ángel Jiménez Amazing Off the Wall Shot (Video) * Greece VS.
