Tour de France: Froome not Bradley Wiggins to lead Sky


Sir Bradley Wiggins' chances of winning the Tour de France again appear to be dashed - Chris Froome's been confirmed as Team Sky's leader this year.

His teammate Froome helped him to victory.
Team Sky boss Dave Brailsford said: "Given Chris' step-up in performances this year, our plan, as it has been since January, is to have him lead the Tour de France team."
Each team has a leader, and their teammates have to work really hard to help that rider win the race.
Wiggins is currently aiming to become the first British winner of the Giro d'Italia, a three-week bike race across Italy.
He is leading Team Sky, who lie in second place after Sunday's stage two.
