Brailsford Hints At Froome Le Tour Lead

Last updated : 29 November 2012 By Kev Monks

Team Sky Boss David Brailsford has hinted that Chris Froome will be leading the British team at the 100th Tour De France which starts in Corsica in June.

Froome had worked to help Bradley Wiggins win Le Tour 99 in July but now it looks like Wiggins could help Froome try to achieve the same goal, if the plan is signed off.

Speaking at UK Sport's world class performance conference in Leeds, Brailsford said to the BBC: : "The Tour of Italy would be a very good target for Bradley and leave Froomy then to focus on the Tour de France."
