I'm sure he'll be fine. I recall during the Vuelta he was doing interviews in Spanish. I know Lampre is Italian but I mean he's probably pretty polyglot by now. Anyway, what is the functional vocabulary required in a bike race anyway? I'm guessing 100 words. [I'm, you're, he's] [flying, good, f--ked, flatted, crashed]; must [get in break, work, guide to front, chase back, sit back, get water, give food, give wheel, give bike] . . . You get the idea.
