We take a closer look at the new liveries, kit, paint schemes and tech that will grace the Tour de France.

First thing's first - you might have noticed we have a new Castelli kit for the race, highlighting our commitment to Sky Ocean Rescue

We're hoping that large killer whale will be nice and visible from the helicopter shots during the race

You can visit the Team Sky Store to shop the Sky Ocean Rescue range and show your support.

Our bus, trucks and Ford vehicles have also turned blue this year. We also have a new Ford Ranger recon car. Check out the video below

Our bidons are not single-use plastic and can be used over and over again. Limited edition Sky Ocean Rescue bidons will be used by the riders during the Tour de France, handed out at the race and available as a free gift with any purchase made from July 7th from the Team Sky Store - though stock is limited, so get in early!

Kask have come up trumps with a new colour scheme on the full range of helmets: Valegro, Utopia, Protone and Bambino Pro Evo TT

In-race connectivity is key, and this year our Sport Directors will be able to follow the race better than ever thanks to tech from Dejero and Sky UK's Vehicles Technology team. Watch the video explainer below
