2008 Spanish riders won all 3 but that was Contador x2.[/quote]
If Kwiatkowski wins, 3 different riders from the same team won the 3 GTs.
Without looking it up, I'm extremely confident that has never happened.[/quote]
G is Welsh. If Kwiato wins it would be 3 different nations - hardly unusual. Same team - yes.[/quote]
Froome, Thomas and Yates are all British. They are from the same nation, be they Welsh, northern or expat.[/quote]
Nation doesn't equal country.[/quote]
They are all UK nationals in that instance with British passports. Nation-states are what is relevant to this discussion. I realise you are trolling but just stop it.[/quote]
I plump for residency and where they pay taxes. So that's two Monegasques and a Catalan (Yates) or two Monegasques and a Frenchman (Kwia)
