+1lllludo said:2 different riders from the same team winning the Tour : Riis-Ullrich, Hinault-Lemond, Hinault-Fignon; you'd tell me 2 years ago that the Froome-Wiggins duo will be next I would have said "no way".
Froome dominating the Movistars on Ventoux and Ax3D and time trialing like Tony Martin is not uncommon by Armstrong and Indurain standards.
Stannard, extremely ambitious for Paris-Roubaix, and Thomas, aiming for a GT in the near future, are considered as stars in the making within team Sky (according to Sutton for example).
add to that the fact that Sky's glory was miraculously precisely predicted by Sir Brailsford in 2008 (when Pat was in Bejing hanging gold medals around BC riders' necks), and how Wiggins' tdf win nicely preceded the London Games.
not normal.
or perhaps remarkably normal.
