Team Sky are absolutely loving life this afternoon as they make their merry way towards Paris for the final stage of this year's Tour de France. With the yellow jersey er, safely, resting on the shoulders of Chris Froome they've decided to crack open the beer....every single one of them!

Team Sky have been absolutely immense this Tour de France and will win their fourth yellow jersey in five years today when Chris Froome crosses the finish line in Paris.
The Kenyan-born Briton and his teammates are already in celebratory mode, as the picture above and video below attest.
As the final stage is largely ceremonial – at least until they reach the outskirts of the French capital and the sprinters start to get organised, the craic is usually good.

Champagne is usually floored in flutes on the approach to Paris before the action really gets underway but Team Sky – as they’ve so often done, have opted for beer.
And as this video illustrates, they ain’t holding back…watch Froome go back to the car for what look like dark Leffe?
Anyone know if #Leffe is the official beer of Tour de France? If not: the best ambush marketing in a while. https://t.co/Wbfz5t5JQ6
