Not sure what they were aiming for there. They are trying to cover all three areas, GC, breakaway, and sprints. Not sure Froome would have won all that much with this team, who can run the Sky train here in the mountains?
Fine if they wanted to get the best for each type of rider, but it sure as hell isn't a good team. Trying to cover too many angles.
