Jspear said:You didn't miss squat. He hasn't been racing so who knows what his form is like....However Froome did say in his interview with BBC that Porte has been doing well with his training. That could just be trash talk....he wants Porte as his B plan not Wiggins, so what is he going to say - Porte is weak? I don't think so....
Arredondo said:Froome is a rider who always wants to win. So i don't see him giving Porte a present.
christopherrowe said:This year Richie Porte has raced 24 days ....

Afrank said:Let Froome and Contador fight it out in these pre-tour races. And just wait, stay consistent, never losing too much time. And in the 3rd week of the Tour when their running on fumes (see Froome in 2013 ) he strikes!
They won't know what hit them.
LaFlorecita said:Contador hasn't beaten an on-form Froome uphill since la Vuelta 2012. You don't think he wants to see if he can now?
happytramp said:As long as nobody attacks/accelerates/does anything remotely unpredictable then Skytrain will win. If any of the aforementioned happen, than it's anyone's game.
cauberg1999 said:it seems like all the races froome won was a lucky accidnt. rivals bad days, offform rivals, perfect parcours etc. froome has no clue what riding versus on form contador is. yes it is true but contador knows very well what riding vs fit froome is because froome is a hurricane

Gregory said:I think Froome will take it. But will it be broadcasted on Eurosport?
Edit: According to Steephill it will be. I seem to remember it wasn't the case in last years
Arredondo said:The last years it was live. This year they finish earlier because of the WC in Brazil.
McLovin said:???? I'm sure it's not because of that.
Arredondo said:I have red somewhere it is the reason. Look's strange to me, because Eurosport don't have the right to broadcast the matches live.
any other channel maybe will show it a live .. let seeDazed and Confused said:Could still be right, many fans might switch to the football stuff....
