    Simon Yates's impending victory in the Vuelta means that for the first time ever three different riders from one nation wear the three grand tour jerseys. What an amazing achievement.

    He's been brilliant, very attacking throughout, a joy to watch.

    Is he the first English born grand tour winner?
