a saturation point, where there can be pulled more out of it, so in this light, it is no wonder that Cloud after ten years and two billion dollars have been enough. The surprising thing is that it comes just now, and it must also be the come back of the team’s undisputed leader, David Brailsford, who this fall concluded rytterkontrakter, which extends far beyond 2019.

now is whether Brailsford again the ability to find such a wasteful sponsor, as the Cloud with the cykelglade James Murdoch at the helm has been. I feel quite convinced, that it will be a significantly more stripped down team, Brailsford tørner out with in 2020, if at all succeed to find a sponsor.

it is believed the next year – in the team’s last season – approaching 40 million English pound, approximately 330 million dollars. You could drive two nice big World Tour teams for the same money, so it is really a big, Brailsford is on the hunt for. Them there are not many in the sports world in general.

a Rolls-Royce with deep scratches in the paintwork, when you can get two luxury suvs for the same price? It is the dilemma, Brailsford faces. Team Sky was called the cleaner than clean and whiter than white, when the team was admitted into the field in 2010, but the reputation has long since been lost.

to post millions and millions in the team, as it was spotless, but recent years have skandalesager a significant use of glued themselves to the team, and so it is quite a different matter to find a sponsor.

and the gray sky that can be glimpsed in the horizon, is the anticipated public hearing in the gmc of the early Team Sky doctor Richard Freeman, whose work on the team and in the british cykleforbund is an object of great mystery and criticism.

unaware of a possible new sponsor, for no one has a clue what he knows and what he will tell, if he does not again get away with becoming too ill to be questioned.

it is likely that 2019 will be the last year with a super team like Team Sky in the field, and it may very well be the last with Brailsford as a teammanager at the World Tour level.
