In wining, Team Sky captain Chris Froome becomes the first rider who won the Vuelta-Tour double since 1978, and only the third ever after Jacques Anquetil (1963) and Bernard Hinault (1978) to win the French and Spanish Grand Tours in the same year.

The Team Sky leader has now won five Grand Tours within the last five years.
