Did Froome show any results before the 2011 vuelta? I'm new to cycling, thats why i'm asking. I don't like accusing riders of doping, but this is just ridiculous.
"Cycling is now the the world's cleanest sport." - Chris Froome
That's the difference between Contador (was generous about stage wins several time, e.g. on Giro 2011 when he let Tiralongo, his former domestique, win a stage) and Froome (I think all remember last year Vuelta incident when Valverde crashed)

The only thing he had shown uptill then are ridiculously bad bike handling skills.

Teammates/helpers gonna be a key element in the Tour and imo Conta/Saxo will win it!
He has stronger helpers indeed, add Kreuziger from Switzerland squad to that and that squad is great, but i fear Froome will overcome it anyway and smash them all. Mybe attacking on flat?
like stage 17e of the Vuelta 2012 don't thinkso, I like Contador cus he reads the peloton during a Grand Tour very well, even without ears and teambosses he always seems to know what's going on.

Instantly countered by Contadors attack on the Bales in 2010...

Nope but he had an illness throughout most of 2011. Even before that though he didn't have anything even close to that scale of win.
Its not so much about Froome not giving Busche the win. For me its more concerning that Froome pre Vuelta 2011 was a rider, who Contador, for example, could have rode circles around and still would have finished in front of him on an uphill finish. Now Froome wins every fucking Mountain finish, if he wants to. Nobody could say that this is happening clean. When Santambrogio had his ridiculous good year, everybody knew he was doping, why should Sky be other?
