Team Sky name riders to back Porte at Giro d'Italia

Team Sky have confirmed the team that will back Richie Porte at this year’s Giro d'Italia. Porte will lead Team Sky for the first time at the Italian race, after being pulled from the squad last year following an illness disrupted spring. A mixture of youth and experience will ride alongside the Australian, including Bernard Eisel, Sebastián Henao, Elia VIviani, Vasil Kiryienka, and Giro debutant Leopold König.
