I'd prefer him to win the worlds and then the Tour. Has anyone ever one the Tour in the Worlds jersey?

TANK91 said:According to Nibali he Wiggins and Froome are face of TDF. So fnny really Contador is still top WT rankings with no GT completed, so how is he done?. Not that Nibali said that he is, just suprised he never mentioned the one guy who made him suffer in the TDF
Publicus said:MAybe it's the translation, but I think he is getting more than a bit irritated/offended that reporters keep questioning HIM on how he would have fared if Contador/Froome stayed in the race. I'm not going to get offended/irritated by anything he says in defense of his well deserved Tour victory. He was the best overall rider to finish the Tour. Let it end there.

More rest and not being forced to ride before being fully healed = good news.pastronef said:I thought this was a Bad news

Miburo said:That doesn't mean anything. Of course kreuziger will ride the vuelta if he can. He hasn't riden a GT this year, Contador possibly being there doesn't change anything.
Netserk said:Ofc it does. You should know that.
More Contador to help Kreuziger.He clearly will be in better form imo.Twenty-Nem said:May be Kreuziger do the Vuelta to help Alberto Contador. It's possible right ?
Pricey_sky said:Hopefully that means I can watch Alberto ride around my local roads at the Tour of Britain.

Depends on whats his motivation.Money?Leadership?Grow?Jelantik said:Anyone has any opinion about Roche? Sky is in hot pursuit for Roche. If sky thinks highly about Roche, that means his number is high. And he got a potential. (sky has a history of making no name rider to suddenly a super domestique or a star). Do you think Roche will leave Alberto? Or he stays? Out of Roman, Nico and Rogers, Nico is the one that seems to be wanting a leadership at GT?
