Lucky you don't do their Communications. It's Sir Jim Ratcliffe and his company is Ineos

i am really happy they have found a British backer, didnt want them to be funded by the Columbia government as was looking very likely at one point, its done a lot of good for cycling in the uk having a British world level team, they got a good team with lots of young talent in as has been shown in the Paris to Nice race win yesterday, my one hope would be with this new deal even more of the young uk riders get there chance at sky,

New sponsor is a chemicals company not going to do much for the froggies thinking that we are always cheating

best bit just reading about it is many think the new team will have an even bigger budget so thats really going to piss the french off as they are never going to will the tour now,

only way will if they have a french ride join the team Brailsford has mentioned it before
