think if he the nutrition is right, that wont happen - and maybe thats why quintana didnt want to take him on this year.
So overall, i think froome will win with or without wiggins adding to the eam support.”

It will be fascinating to watch the Dauphine this week coming. The form of Contador and Froome will be laid bare for all to see. Personally I'm piling my cash on Contador to win Le Tour.
