I guess Sky have enough money to hire the best rider in the world, and build the best team around that rider. Fuck, they've got a couple of other riders who might be able to challenge for GTs riding for the rider. Combine that with all the best backroom stuff that their budget allows and it shouldn't surprise that that team comes out on top. It's possible they could be cheating to make that edge bigger, but it would make a mockery of everything British Cycling has done up to now. Kind of a huge legacy to destroy - really can't see someone like Brailsford letting that happen.
And it's all so fucking boring too. Endless twats hanging on every word swivel-eyed lunatics like digger forum say. Go back to contrails, world trade centre conspiracies and Dan Brown symbolism.
