It will be a hard fight for Froome.. Dauphine was Froome bad and not in shape. I think the fight will go between, Porte, Froome and Jacob Fugelsang. Perhaps maybe a outsider (like Tom Dumoulin at Giro) suprised :)

I hope than this year Quintana gonna finally win it.. He really deserves it. Yeah I told you that I don't follow anymore the TdF, what is still true.. but I still look at the result the last day in Paris.

I hope that it will be as interesting than the Giro 2017.

if Froome gets the head too soon.. like it's often the case all these last years with the big favorite during the TdF.. That will be boring as hell as usual.

National french celebration is on 14th July.

First controversy about the jersey of Sky during the 1st stage.

 

"On Saturday, for the inaugural time trial of the Tour de France, the Sky team equipped four of its riders, including the winner Geraint Thomas, a Vortex on their combination, small air balls on their arms and The shoulders that would allow aerodynamic gain. An advantage that would oscillate between 18 and 25 seconds on the 14 km of the course, according to Frédéric Grappe, performance director of the FDJ. "The regulations are very clear," said the Frenchman. It prohibits any addition of aerodynamic element on the rider's suit. Sky is clearly in breach. "
