Team Sky's Year in Numbers. Click image to embiggen (link is external) (link is external) (link is external)​

Team Sky have produced an infographic that summarises their 2015 season in numbers - from Sir Bradley WIggins' last victory for them in the time trial at the Three Days of De Panne to Chris Froome's win at the Tour de France.

There's a few surprises in there; the most indvidual wins were racked up by Richie Porte, who now heads to BMC Racing, while the greatest distance raced by any rider this year - if you were guessing, Ian Stannard would usually be a safe bet - was achieved by Salvatore Puccio.

- Team Wiggins release Hour infographic - but Sky not impressed at "blatant rip-off" 

- Infographics highlight Team Sky's 2012 Tour de France

I think it's because they ride the nationals for their Trade Team but the Worlds for their Country.

But that's just silly as he'll be able to wear the stripes in every time trial he rides and will surely be kitted out with a Team Sky world champs skinsuit.

Did they produce a similar graphic last year? If they did then I bet they didn't leave Bradley's worlds TT win off the list of significant results.

I agree, it is silly as I tend to think of him first and foremost as a Team Sky rider and not a Belorussian rider.

Whats the rationale behind putting the Nationals on there but not Kiry's world TT?
