Team Sky hasnt exactly dominated the race in previous years, only placing one rider in the top 10 on each occasion since Team Sky was formed.

2010 - Greg Henderson (3rd)
2011 - Steve Cummings (2nd)
2012 - Knees (9th)

20k to go. Velits, Hoolahan and Madrazo in the lead, House and Wilkinson dropped on this climb 50 seconds back. Peloton at 1.12 with Bardiani-Valvole having done a lot of work recently.
