2010

Kwiatkowsk­i’s irst pro team is Caja Rural, in Spain. He inishes seventh in the Volta ao Alentejo and third in a Tour de l’Avenir stage, where he’s outsprinte­d by John Degenkolb and Michael Matthews.

2011

Signs for RadioShack and is third in Three Days of both West Flanders and De Panne, thanks to strong rides in the time trials. Follows it up with third in the Tour du Poitou- Charentes in August.

2012

Signs for Omega Pharma- Quick Step and his irst pro win comes in the Three Days of West Flanders TT. Results take a step up with second overall in the Tour of Poland and eighth in the Eneco Tour.

2013

Achieves top ives in Tirreno-Adriatico, Amstel and Flèche Wallonne, then gets six top ives at the Tour, coming 11th overall. Only one win - the Polish National Championsh­ips road race.

2014

Wins come in Algarve and Strade Bianche, then he’s third in both Flèche and Liège. He’s runner up in the Tours of Britain and Basque Country, but the real high point is winning the rainbow jersey.
