Three decent signings. I wonder if they will announce any new arrivals or departures. From memory I believe 5 riders were only on 1 year contracts.

    Calzati and Portal are off I believe.

    Possoni reported to going to Astana.

    Rumour mill says a few others are out on their ear.
    Fckin' Quintana … that creep can roll, man.

    Zandio might be a good helper but he's not cracked the top-20 once this season.

    Dowsett and Uran are much better prospects for Brailsford to the clumsy Sutton and Yates to harm :wink:

    Those 2 are like chalk and cheese. Sutton the most perceptive and analytical DS with great race reading skills. Yates just likes workhorses to drive it on the front.

    Looks like Sky will have climbing muscle to drive in the hills as well as on the flat. Shame they have no riders that can capitalise on that.
