Just curious -- why do you think that? My read is that a breakaway up the road would be good or neutral for Froome/Chavez.
Not sure how it would affect their tactics, as they are racing amongst themselves either way. The only thing I can see is that teams with a rider in the break don't have to work as hard, but I can't imagine Sky would let Bahrain or Orica get in the break.
No bonus seconds for GC guys if break stays away. That would be the benefit for Nibs.
