Re: Re:
Froome briefly held the red jersey in the 2011 Vuelta.LaFlorecita said:There are several occasions but I guess they're not the most obvious. Both in GTs and minor stage races.ad9898 said:LaFlorecita said:Yes he has....ad9898 said:The issue is he has never pulled back 50 secs plus on Froome at any point where they've raced together![]()
Has he ? Well I stand corrected but what I meant is when Froome has been in front of him on GC I can't think of a time when Alberto has overcome him from that kind if deficit. Like I say though I stand corrected if that's happened, as it doesn't come to mind
But something I was thinking about yesterday, has Froome ever lost a GT leader's jersey? I don't think he has, much like Alberto. So we should apply the same to Froome - he is very hard to beat when he's defending. I guess the only difference is that for Froome it's also for a big part down to his team so if they seem weak there's an opportunity.
