Ok , a bit too harsh. But , it looks too good to be for real. The fact is, his times are as good as the "doped" LA. What kind of rider was Froome 3 years ago? John Lee Augustyn was better than Froome!

Go back and read opinion about tail winds, road condition etc etc etc. You can't make assumptions on time alone

I think the tour so far has been spectacular. Froome and Sky have done brilliantly, and it's a pleasure to watch...

 

On the doping cheating topic, my opinion is he's clean. And I don't mind the fact that he's only coming good now... If someone has worked their butt off for the last three years and has good team support, why not?

 

Leave the guy alone and enjoy the performances. Innocent until proven guilty!

once bitten, twice shy.

 

He's won, or come second in every single race the last year. Even lance wasnt that good

He hasn't bitten. Don't treat him like a cheat because someone else did. If he had a history, I could understand... But come on... That's completely unfair.

It was impressive how Froome defended every second today.

 

Excellent testing surges by 'Berto.
