Summary

In our final regular episode of 2020, Richard Moore, Lionel Birnie and Daniel Friebe pick their moments of the COVID-19 season.

We hear from young British rider Joe Laverick, who has been riding for the AG2R development squad but is moving to Girona next season to take up another opportunity about the implications Brexit may have on his fledgling career.

And in the final part, Richard tests Lionel and Daniel with his end-of-year quiz.

Next week's episode is Strictly Amaraterra.
