  • Bad news for froome. Hope he makes a full and speedy recovery.

    But with him out does that leave the tour pretty open? Is there any obvious favourite?

  • Last year’s winner wouldn’t be a bad bet.

    It partially solves the leadership issue for Sky in that they now only have two riders to keep happy.

    Sky have by far the strongest team but it’s a cruel sport and it doesn’t take much to derail plans.

    I hope they don’t win it again. I think it would do the race good to have a French winner.

    So do I. But who? Bardet doesn't quite have it, nor does Pinot and Barguill appears to have retired.

  • Movistar may be able to match them on the team front. Lotto Jumbo could be close too. They could field Kruisjwijk, Bennett, De Plus, Van Aert, Gesink.

    Nom nom nom Le Tour.

    Not a chance this year, won’t even sniff the podium.

    Pinot is going well this year? TTing marginally better than Bardet.
    Would love to see Ineos pick up Pinot and drag him to a title. French fans wouldn't know if they should throw flowers or piss.
