Makes a Froome win more likely.

Brad's year was last year & I doubt he'll win another GC. He's a great rider but I have my doubts. Hopefully I'm wrong.

This takes the issues around who's the leader out.
Froome climbs better and maybe be able to accelerate like the cheating Spaniard.

Correct decision from Sky and will benefit the team and Froome to have everyone behind one GC leader. Froome has the bit between his teeth and something to prove, the tour is his stage and time to shine this year.

Regardless of who was going to be leader, and whether Froome and Wiggins would both be in the TDF team, this years TDF will no doubt be more exciting than last year as teams learn to deal with Skys tactics to control stage races...

Froome, Contador and Nibail battle...can't bloody wait.

It'll also be interesting to see froome off the leash on a more mountainous tour.
