The Cycling Podcast completes its review of the 2022 season by electing our “Team of the Year”. In reality, it wasn't a difficult choice: Jumbo-Visma ruled the roost both in the terms of the quality and quantity of their victories, with Jonas Vingegaard's Tour de France title, Wout van Aert's July tour de force and Tobias Foss's rainbow jersey capping a sensational season. In an extended interview, the team's Managing Director Richard Plugge reminds us of his and their remarkable journey over the past decade, from the brink of oblivion to something akin to what Plugge calls "total cycling". Before that, Daniel Friebe and Rob Hatch discuss the week's big stories, including Astana's sacking of Miguel Ángel López. There's also a cameo from Ned Boulting of ITV and The Road Book, who tells us about that publication's riders of 2022. The Cycling Podcast is supported by Supersapiens and Science in Sport.
