Team Sky want to be best ever

Team Sky boss Dave Brailsford has admitted that he wants his side to become the best team that the "world has ever seen".

Sky rider Bradley Wiggins made history on Sunday as he became the first Brit to ever win the Tour, after teammate Mark Cavendish triumphed in the final stage of the famous race.

Brailsford wants to try to repeat those successes and become the best team of all time.

"If you're going to become the best cycling team the world's ever seen, you've got to win the biggest race in the world [the Tour de France] time and time again.

"I am quite driven by that: to see what it takes to be the best professional team this sport has ever seen. The components of that would be success over time."

The team was founded in 2009.
