Update: The people who downloaded the DL-version of the patch before 11:56 (CET) will have to redownload it. By accident, we had uploaded the patch from yesterday (v. 1.0.0.1). Today's version is called 1.0.1.0 and is now available through the link. Sorry for any inconvenience.

The first official patch has now been released. Here's the press announcement:

"The first official Pro Cycling Manager 2007 patch is now available.

This patch is NOT compatible with the German RadSport Manager Pro 2007. A specific RadSport Manager patch will be released shortly.

To get maximum benefit, we recommend that you start a new career. For example, game databases created with v1.0.0.0 will not be fully updated !

Please note that there are 2 distinct patches. One for the CD version of the game, the second for the downloaded version of the game :
