Sky Italia and News Corporation have joined Team Sky as investors of the ProTour squad backed by British Sky Broadcasting (BSkyB) and managed by David Brailsford.

Sky Italia is, as the name suggests, the Italian version of the satellite broadcaster, and signals the British-based squad's intent on bringing the team to a global audience. Three Italian riders feature on the team's roster - Davide Vigano, Dario Cioni and Morris Possoni.

Nigel Wynn
Former Associate Editor

Nigel Wynn worked as associate editor on CyclingWeekly.com, he worked almost single-handedly on the Cycling Weekly website in its early days. His passion for cycling, his writing and his creativity, as well as his hard work and dedication, were the original driving force behind the website’s success. Without him, CyclingWeekly.com would certainly not exist on the size and scale that it enjoys today. Nigel sadly passed away, following a brave battle with a cancer-related illness, in 2018. He was a highly valued colleague, and more importantly, an exceptional person to work with - his presence is sorely missed.
