The Teaboy Jul 2015 3:39pm, 28 Jul 2015 13,124 posts	0 The Teaboy I guess Kwiatkowski - they've been linked with him for ages. Although didn't Brailsford also say he wanted to win the Tour with a French rider? It would be interesting what the fans thought if Sky if Pinot or Bardet was being driven to victory...
