Eurosport expert Robbie McEwen has once again come forward in support of Chirs Froome. He believes Froome is a “definite contender” for at least a stage win in Vuelta a Espana.
He pointed out Froome’s bronze in the twelfth stage of the Tour de France. “I would say same goes for Chris Froome. He's not a GC contender. But after his third place on the Alpe d'Huez, he's a definite contender to win a stage,” said McEwen.

He continues, “And I think the same, having finished third in the Tour, pick your days go when you feel good, give it everything, recover. Don't ride for GC, and that's how they're going to have success.”
As a two-time winner of the Vuelta a Espana, Froome is no stranger to the race. He was involved in a life-threatening crash at the Criterium du Dauphine in 2019. He fractured his neck, femur, hip, elbow, and ribs and was out of competitive action for eight months. The last grand tour of the season will see him represent Israel-Premier Tech.
