Chris Froome

Yatesy lad had said he died a thousand deaths last third of the time trial,he wasnt joking,miserable day

The OP are just the opinions of a clog wearing donkey.

None of us know if he's clean or not. Come to think of it, none of us know if any of them are clean out not. What we do know is that he was cleared to ride and that, in all probability, the testers will be all over him like a cheap suit at every opportunity - and rightly so.

I for one salute his achievement. Matching the record of Merckx and Hinault is no gimme.

Used to really like Froome but his achievements are tainted with suspicion now. In an era when climbs are being done more slowly in the Grand Tours as there is far less doping, so riders are cleaner, Froome is getting faster and breaking records. If he wind this years TDF I will not be able to believe it will de done clean. From a physiological stand point it is incredibly difficult, if not impossible, to maintain form like that for that length of time after the Giro. Not only that it takes a lot out of you and as we all know the TDF is even tougher than the Giro. If he wins the TDF this year it will be impossible for me to believe it has been done clean.

Dope using crackhead. No way he's clean.

Oh dear.

Don't agree with his being dropped from the TdF. Not his fault the authorities haven't dealt with the case more expediently.

Whatever Froome and Sky are up to, it needs to be proven beyond any doubt.

The weight of suspicion alone cannot be enough. Guilt by suspicion could end up doing more to kill the sport than doping itself.

I'm not sure why it has now become the fashion to accuse any decent athlete of doping. See it s lot in boxing as well.

Not before making a few replacement keys to smuggle in the drugs.

Tbh I suspect Froome is dirty, as are nearly all of them.

Dumoulin played right into Sky's hands today. Poor tactics not to let Thomas do the work of trying to reel Roglic in.

Fantastic riding by Roglic, it must be said.

Then why bother with this event. If the assumption is that everyone is at it, either cancel the bluddy thing for good or just don't bother testing. Best drug cheat wins.

Well done Geraint Thomas, there's a torrent of abuse about to come your way, and yes, well done Chris Froome for past endeavours. Matching Merckx an Hinault it's no gimme when we're told that everyone else in the race is taking drugs too.
