The week before heading to Brussels for his tenth Tour de France as team principal and his first with new sponsors, Dave Brailsford sat down for lunch with The Cycling Podcast and a wide-ranging conversation about the transition from Team Sky to Team Ineos, the crash that ruled Chris Froome out of contention for a fifth-Tour title and the balancing act between Geraint Thomas and Egan Bernal for leadership duties. In celebration of the end of the Tour de France, we've putting the first 15 minutes of this extended interview here for all of The Cycling Podcast listeners to enjoy.
