RE: 2018 Road Cycling season preview: Team Sky

in #cycling7 years ago

Nice roundup of Team Sky. I don't think we've seen the end of the Salbutamol scandal, it will rear its ugly head for a long time to come. Landa is a huge loss but it will be good to see if he can lead a team on his own and challenge Froome this year at the Tour. Obviously Froome also appears to be targeting the Giro, so it will be a tough year training wise. I remember chatting to Cadel Evans at the Cape Epic last year and he reckoned that in the modern era it would be impossible to see someone win the Giro and Tour in the same year.
2018 looks like it will be an awesome year.

Sort:  

As far as I undestand it, if giro-tour can be done, this is the year because the tour is delayed for the world cup, and if anyone is able to do it it's Froome and Sky. Not sure he'll be able to prove his innocence though so it might all be moot.
