GC is general classification. Which is pretty much the main race. Within the race, there are other races green jersey: there's a point system for high finishers of each race, and intermediate sprints also during the stage where pints can be won. the guy that has the most points takes that jersey. There are specialists just for this

Polka dots jersey: same concept as above except the points are obtained at the top of categorized climbs.

That's just a term used for the whole group of cyclists. Or the main group, once peine start breaking away.

Team Sky is team Sky lol. And teams are very important. A contender needs a solid cast around him.
