Michal Kwiatkowski, the world champion turned domestique, gave another superb reminder of his individual class when he soloed to victory in the 13th stage of the Tour de France on Friday.
The Pole, who won the rainbow jersey in 2014, joined Team Sky - now Ineos-Grenadiers - in 2016 and became one of the men riding themselves to the ground in the mountains to help Chris Froome, Geraint Thomas and Egan Bernal claim the Tour title.
That year, then defending champion Bernal pulled out of the race injured on the Col du Grand Colombier and Ineos-Grenadiers did not win the Tour. Kwiatkowski started the final climb with a four-minute lead over the bunch but in the final kilometres, where he fended off a sea of flag-waving fans, he had no idea how close the chasing groups were.
