Wiggins should have won it last year, if it wasn't for his crash.
Hugely emotional day yesterday, felt myself tearing up more than a few times, and getting goosebumps everytime think about it. Massively proud of Sky's achievement, because it was a huge team effort.
EBH was immense, once Suitsov broke his leg he took his role and put massive turns on the front early doors in the mountains. Knees and Eisel did a lot of work at the front too on the fatter sections, then Porte and Rogers just set such a massive pace on the climbs, not only preventing attacks but shedding a lot of the contenders.
Then there is Froome. At the end of the day Evans, Nibali and Van den Broeck were riding against two men, a ridiculously strong duopoly that they just couldn't dent. Amazing show from beginning to end.
And there's Cav, left to his own devices but still has won 2 stages and might have won two more but for a crash. And maybe will grab his third today.
